Debra
Higgins and Students Present
“Classroom without Walls” at the State Capitol Building
 Mrs.
Higgins, Fisher Elementary third grade teacher and
"Classroom Without Walls" Coordinator along with
four Chengo students traveled to Lansing and present “Classroom
Without Walls”. Mrs. Higgins was invited to attend and
present with her students at the sixth annual AT&T/MACUL Student
Technology Showcase
at the State
Capitol Building
on Tuesday, November 14, 2006.
Sierra Beck,
Brandon Ruelle, Joe Devroy, and Olivia Pevovar are the fourth
graders attending the Technology Showcase at the State Capitol.
The students presenting in Lansing began studying Chinese with
Mrs. Higgins last year and are exemplary students in the
program.
The Michigan
Association for Computer Users in Learning (MACUL) extends an
invitation to K-12 schools throughout Michigan to participate in
the event. Student groups set up computers and other
peripherals to show Michigan state legislators how they have
used technology to learn the Chinese and communicate via the
Internet with the Nanao School students in China.
Providing the
opportunity for our students to present their learning
experience at the MACUL Showcase is fantastic. The presentation
of the “A Classroom Without Walls” Program will demonstrate how
Fisher Elementary students are utilizing technology to enhance
learning beyond the traditional classroom to become Global
citizens. The opportunity to present their learning experience
to legislators and the public will strengthen the students’
learning process.
