Jessie Neville

Neville paired with fellow educator Diane Lonergan to create the "Passion, Pride, Perseverance/Technology and the Curriculum" project, which uses technology to bring alive classroom curriculum. Through the use of a variety of computer programs that deliver rigorous instruction in a motivating way, students work in small groups to enhance learning in language arts, math, science and social studies. By following written directions in individual computer binders, students gain ownership over their work while developing computer skills. Students use a variety of technology mediums to complete classroom projects such as creating a class newsletter to share with parents. These technology projects teach students to take pride in their finished product and highlight student creativity.
