3rd Entry

Having the equipment has made a huge difference in my classroom. While I haven't even come close to realizing its potential, the equipment has served me and my class well. Some of my students have taken the opportunity to put together powerpoint presentations instead of traditional visual aides. Also, I have been able to have a few of my students that either have physical impairments that make it difficult to write or are traditionally hard to engage use the laptop in class to complete their writing. Plus, on a personal note, my home PC decided to die about a week ago, so it has been terrific having the laptop around to take its place at least to some degree.
