As a remote visual art educator, I am requesting an HP Chromebook so that I can utilize every possible avenue to reach and provide art experiences and art education to a very varied population of middle school students. Currently, I am borrowing a family tablet and primarily using my iPhone loaded with Google apps to conduct my remote art classroom. A smartphone is not the best way to view student art and to communicate with 275 art students. During this time I want to provide and grow a community for my students in fine arts and crafts that may turn what could have been a bad experience into a bright memory. They are putting great thinking, time, and creativity into their assignments, finding their own ways to adapt to the situation that COVID 19 has placed them in. With an HP Chromebook, I will be able to see and respond to their artwork in a proper viewing scale. I will also be able to communicate with the students and school staff using the video call features that the Chromebook will provide. I can have student office hours and stage live video events. These two things will increase my ability to meet the diverse needs of my students.
