9th Grade Classroom, Peery Matriculation School, Thottanoval, Tamil Nadu
Students effectively using technology in their 9th grade Algebra class. This class mixed formal math instruction with using computers in the classroom. We were teaching the children to use computers in the classroom and in particular helping them use Khan Academy (www.khanacademy.org/) in this classroom. Here, students are watching video lessons after the teacher went through the lessons of the day.
This school is run by Rising Star Outreach (RSO), a non-profit organization working to eliminate leprosy in India. You can read more about this organization here.
Children studying in this school are primarily from nearby leprosy colonies and villages around the school. If you are looking for a good cause and are interested in supporting children's education, please consider RSO. This is real and they are doing some truly amazing work.

Full wi-fi access in every classroom. Mac is mandatory for Grade 3 students or above. I saw someone using Photo Booth to record himself to study his pronunciation with his Chinese language teacher.
One of the classrooms I will be teaching in. It fits about 20 desks. There are 40 students enrolled in each class. This is the view from the doorway.
