My students are 8th grade special education students in Hawaii. They come from rich and diverse backgrounds, yet all share a strong connection to one another and their land. While they are all more than capable of navigating around Facebook and Instagram, they lack fundamental typing skills and the technological research skills that are so essential to their future success. Our school is a fairly large Middle school and we lack the resources to ensure that all students can have access to technology on a regular basis. My students in particular, need extra time and extra practice to truly become comfortable with the technology.
