Core TeamAudrey Mullen1:1 Private High SchoolI go to a private 1:1 high school and I love my iPad and do pretty much all my school work on it. I do most of Kite's initial product reviews.I attended 2015 ISTE and participated on a panel called "Youth Voice in Edtech". This is where we talked to businesses about the student experience with technology.In 2016 I participated in Edsurge's Most Likely to Succeed Panel where I discussed issues within the modern schooling system.I also wrote these articles:
KatiePublic High SchoolMy name is Katie and I am going to be in 11th grade. I attend a public high school in San Jose and we don't use iPads at all and our school has some computer carts (Macs or Chromebooks) but not even close enough to cover all of the students. My favorite subject is math and I am taking AP Calculus BC this coming year. Science would be my next favorite subject. My hobbies include volleyball.
AndersPublic High SchoolMy name is Anders Eckburg, and I attend Mountain View High School in Mountain View, California. I am a part of the Class of 2017 and will be a senior this upcoming fall. I enjoy the sciences, and my favorite subject is Biology. I am involved with the cross country and boys soccer teams at my school, and I love to cook as well!
MeganPrivate 1:1 High SchoolI go to a 1:1 private high school in San Jose. I use my iPad for every class, and complete all my work on it. I excel in math and sciences more than history and language arts. I am a student-athlete, as I swim and play water polo. Outside of school, I am a part of National Charity League and a member of TeenTech San Francisco.
SabrinaPrivate 1:1 High SchoolI attend a 1:1 private high school in San Jose. Everyone is given an iPad. Because our school is trying to go paperless, almost all of everyone's work is on their iPad. Although my favorite subject is art, I want to pursue in a STEM related career as math and science are my next favorite subjects. Outside of school, I play water polo and I am a part of TeenTechSF, a nonprofit organization focused on creating equal access to technology for all teens. In my free time I like to make ice cream.
ChrisPublic High SchoolHello, my name is Chris and I am a 12th grade student in beautiful Sarasota, Florida. At my high school we are unfortunately not a 1 to 1 school regarding technology, however we do have access to personal laptops, Smart interactive white boards, and specific Technology Enhanced Learning classrooms. I am a member of the STEM Cell Research club, Progressive club and National Honor Society. In addition, I am nationally ranked in crew and the captain of the Sarasota Scullers Youth Rowing Program.
