Technology in the Classroom

How could you as a student benefit from having a school-provided iPad? I can benefit from having a school-proved iPad because it can keep me more organized. It would also be a lot easier because I wouldn't have to carry around multiple heavy books, I wouldn't have to worry about forgetting any of my books, and I would be typing my notes so it would be a lot faster.

What's a Hero

What is a Hero Heroes come in many shapes and sizes but they usually have the same qualities. Some similar qualities that I think a hero has is that they are a good role model. They are also the person that will do the right thing and make the right call even in a tough situation. A hero is also someone who will make a sacrifice for the good of others. To me a hero is someone who will stand up for others and will lead others in the right direction. A hero should also be very generous and they should also be the person that you look up to for advice in a tough situation.  A hero is someone to look to for answers on what is right and what is wrong.
