With these funds I will...

My 4th grade Dartmouth scholars will immediately appreciate the value of operating with headphones in the classroom. These funds will directly impact the classroom structure of Dartmouth and improve productivity. 

Laptops are a wonderful way to expand student learning. Laptop computers are becoming progressively customary in education. Computer skills are becoming a fundamental part of education.

Students that learn to type efficiently and use basic computer functions such as word processing, email and web browsing have a significant advantage.

Allowing laptops in the classroom reinforces computer skills and can allow students to have contact with computers without having them take a class geared specifically toward learning computer skills.

On laptops students can explore science themes and learn current events. Students can also practice reading on math using intervention software. Headphones will help students self explore and learn on the computers.
