Drawing Through The Air? Yes You Can!

My students need a wireless graphics tablet for the art room so that they can draw up on our projector screen from their seats.

My Students

I love when I can surprise my students with something amazing that they don't expect. Their cries of "Whoa!" and "Wow!" are unforgettable.

We have over 700 smart and outgoing students.

They love being challenged with new concepts and ideas, and they especially love talking about themselves and sharing new discoveries! Most of our students are pretty tech-savvy, so introducing them to a new tech tool is very motivating for them.

My Project

A wireless graphics tablet would enable greater control and ease in presenting information to classes, both by the teacher and by the students. We can use the tablet to control presentations (such as PowerPoint and Prezi), and to annotate the computer screen while watching up on the projector as a whole class. Another motivating and fun use of a wireless graphics tablet is to collaborate on a single drawing by passing the tablet around at our seats, with each student taking a turn adding to the final digital image.

A wireless graphics tablet is a useful tech tool for both the teacher and the students in the art room.

It is an piece of equipment that will be used for many years to come, and will give students a "taste" of what it's like to use professional artist's tools.
