My Past Technological Experiences
  • Throughout middle school and high school, I was
    taught how to use programs such as PowerPoint and
    FrontPage. I also used a program entitled Virtual
    FlashCards 2.1, which is similar to Hyper Studio.
  • Swish, however, was a brand new experience for me
    and gave me a lot of insight as to how the
    program could be used in classrooms.

What is Swish?

    thought provoking and/or inspirational movies.

  • Swish is a great, engaging educational tool.

    setting up future lesson plans.

My Swish Project Timothys Law
  • Timothys Law is an act that, if passed, will
    help to ensure that individuals with mental
    health and addiction illnesses can receive proper
    medical treatment. Currently, people with these
    illnesses are not covered equally, if at all,
    under health insurance.
  • The rate of suicidal incidences without medical
    treatment is 80. With health coverage and
    treatment, this rate decreases to 50.
