The backpack is essential for the student. It will allow them to carry all of the other essentials, such as computer, water bottle, ebook devices, and so on. The backpack will have 4 sections, and 2 pockets. There will also be a clear card slot to allow the student to print their name, and a contact information in case the backpack was to get lost, there is a chance it could possibly be returned. The backpack will have a USB-C charging port on the right hand side of the backpack. The student will plug a cable in the backpack to a battery bank, and from there – will be able to charge a handheld, or ebook reader. Since the charging plug is USB-C, it meets with the NSC mark of standards. The backpack will be waterproof to protect the valuable electronics in the backpack, and reduce the chance that a student will have to replace their system which might be unaffordable to some students.
The backpack will also have a clear slot that will show contact information of the owner. This could be a name, and either telephone number, or email address. The card will need to be able to reach a live person, so maybe the contact information will be that of a trusted and approved friend, or guardian. There will also be a pocket for glasses in case the student will need glasses to read. If I was to have this backpack, I will have my name, and id.ka URL? since changes will be immediate if I should be uncomfortable with providing information.
The sections of the backpack will be used to sort everything the student might need. The large section will be able to support up to a 16″ PC. This does not mean that the student is required to have a 16″ PC, but it can still support that size nonetheless. The main section will have 2 pockets. One will be for the PC, and the other pocket can hold the eBook Tablet as mentioned in another page. The second pocket will hold an eBook reader, handheld, and all of the tools needed for the student as mentioned. Another section will carry other items, and a special section for glasses will be available. There will be 2 exterior pockets for water bottles which the student should have.
The backpack will also have wheels at the bottom for times where it might be more appropriate for the student to roll their backpack. This could be if the student is currently too small to wear the backpack on their backs. This could be especially true for elementary students. Keep in mind, the goal is to make the backpack last the 12 years of grade school.
Rationale
The backpack will be designed to serve the student for their time in school. It would be hard if not impossible to carry everything in the arms of the student. There will be an easier chance to drop something and that would likely damage the item dropped. With a backpack, it would seem more obvious. Everything goes in the backpack, and the backpack can be rolled or carry on the back. The student will enter the classroom, and take out the items from the backpack and place them on the desk. When finished, the student places everything back into the backpack, and go to their next class. This will also serve for coming, and leaving school.
