This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
Much like the Opaque Projector used for years in schools, the Digital Projector permits students to project drawings from the Internet, digital cameras, school-owned multi-media CDs & DVDs, and scanned drawings that can be used as examples of specific art and architectural styles. At PS41 in Brownsville Brooklyn, our developing Beginning Architecture program needs this device to advance the teaching of the language of architecture and architectural styles. Our 50 program students will document neighborhood examples of various architectural styles using the program's existing digital cameras and bring back their findings to the classroom for projection and discussion. In so doing, they will learn the practical uses of art and math, as well as be exposed to a significant career path, all key NYS Learning Standards.
