This is great! I am glad to see the technology helped to excite and engage the students. It is an incredible turnaround.
Awesome and powerful video. The opportunities that technologies afford are unmistakable. As the principal says, "technology is like oxygen, nobody says let's take away oxygen." Students need these types of technology skill to be successful. If a public school in NYC has this much success, there's no reason other districts cannot do the same! :)
