Your Donation Supports:
Technology
-
Technology that enables students to connect in learning.
-
This includes a budget for internet service, computers, hardware, software, microphones, cameras, and speakers.
-
Laptops for Belize: Many students live in very remote rural areas, travel long distances to meet online, and do not have devices of their own. These students need computers to scale their dreams. Learn more.

-
Understanding of digital etiquette
-
Advocating for student ideas
-
Listening to all collaborators
-
Asking guiding questions
-
Documenting success and failures
-
Working with students to improve via the design process in learning
-
Training other facilitators
-
Operation of synchronous technology (VCT – Video Conference Technology)
-
Maker Space
-
Maker space and materials required for collaboration. Depending on the goals of each collaboration, all parties need equal access to materials or anything that is required by the lesson. The focus of the collaboration will help determine the maker space needs. Here are some examples:
-
Robotic Kits
-
Tools
-
Musical Instruments - Guitars
-
Electronics
-
Art Supplies
-
Travel
-
Synchronous learning connections can help sustain partnerships and collaborations. However, there are many times that require in-person collaborations, meetings, and lessons. OV4C would like to fund necessary in-person travel expenses for subject matter experts, teachers, students, and facilitators.
