One of my professional objectives is to apply computer technology with challenged students to help them to learn more effectively.

I teach students with different disabilities, ways to learn, ethnicities, ages, grade levels, cognitive abilities, and behaviors. So I adapt my teaching strategies, lesson plans, materials, and assessments to meet those differences on daily basis. It's a challenge. I enjoy challenges.

My goal is to optimize the use of the computers I have in my classroom to promote learning with my VE class.

- 4 computers that run over Windows 2000. ( I'd like to have xp!)

- Suite Microsoft Office 2000.

- 1 Projector.

- 1Toshiba Laptop.

- 2 Speakers

- 1 Laser point

- 2 USB drive

If you are interested, join me in this project, together we can improve the lives of those challenged individuals and make the difference in their worlds.
