Grant Description:
We are requesting funding for a 75 inch Viewsonic Viewboard for the high school physical education department. The viewboard is an interactive smartboard that will enhance our lessons, create a more active learning environment, increase student achievement and make learning more exciting! The free myViewBoard software will allow us to create custom lesson content that is tailored to our students’ needs. The ability to write and draw on the board is also beneficial, as it allows students to participate in lessons and interact directly with on-screen content.
How much funding are you seeking?
$2380.00
Would partial funding of this grant be possible?
Yes
Is there any other information you would like to provide HEF in consideration for this grant?
This viewboard would greatly enhance our teaching methods and ways to give information to students with diverse learning styles. Using this technology will help us motivate students and increase their understanding by engaging them and helping to place the responsibility of learning into their own hands. This computer will provide students with the tools to help them achieve their objectives more easily.
Examples of use:
Show a motivational video that accompanies our Word of the Week. For example if we are talking about the word Attitude- we would a short clip of an inspirational video on attitude.
Show an instructional video of a skill that the students will be learning. For example we would show a video on the advanced badminton serve.
Use the writing tool for students to demonstrate their knowledge of strategies. For example students would come to the smart board to show us a play they create for their football offense.
We have many great ideas for this board and we know the students would learn more effectively and be more engaged with this technology.
Thank you for your time and consideration and please let me know if you have any questions!
