Goal

By using a computer mouse, my goal is for students to be able to maneuver through their computerized assignments and apps with ease. 

 

What will be done with my students

Each of my students will be provided with a wired mouse to go with their laptops from the district. Due to Covid, much of the schoolwork to be completed using technology. With a wired mouse, the students will be able to complete their schoolwork and use the functions of the computer easier than without the mouse.  

 

Benefits to my students

Each student will receive a laptop from the district. This started right after Covid started. I had noticed that students struggled to use the touchpad mouse installed on the laptop itself. They couldn't scroll properly, would sometimes click the incorrect button, and it hindered their ability to highlight and use other functions in different programs. Not having a mouse made students take a longer amount of time to complete work on their computers. Last year I received a grant for each student to receive a wireless mouse. The studnets were so excited and preferred to use this mouse! However, with over 20 students having a wireless mouse, all of the signals crossed and a mouse would affect a different computer.
If each student receives a wired mouse, there would be no crossed signals, and therefore it would have a 100% success rate of working. This mouse will enable the student to work more efficiently and easily on technology.  

 

Budget Narrative

The budget will include a wired mouse for each of the 25 students. There will be no shipping fee as the materials will be purchased on Amazon.
