Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students are extraordinary, and what I love most about them is their boundless curiosity and resilience. They're not just learning what to think, but how to think, problem-solve, and create.

My goal for this project is to empower them to become confident creators and innovators, equipped with the skills to bring their ideas to life.

I want to foster their creativity, encourage collaboration, and build their problem-solving abilities through hands-on, engaging projects.

Photoshop Classroom in a Book will be invaluable in helping my students develop essential digital literacy skills. They'll learn image editing, manipulation, and design principles, which are not only crucial for creative expression but also highly sought-after skills in today's digital world. The structured approach of the Classroom in a Book will provide a solid foundation, guiding them step-by-step through the software's capabilities.

PLA 3D Printer Filament is the key to unlocking a whole new dimension of learning for my students – literally! 3D printing allows them to take their digital designs and turn them into physical objects. They can design and print prototypes for inventions, create models for science projects, or even personalize gifts for their families. The process of designing for 3D printing requires problem-solving and spatial reasoning skills, which are essential for STEM learning. The filament is the essential ingredient that makes this magic possible.

Specifically, the Photoshop Classroom in a Book will help students:

Develop digital literacy and design skills.

Express their creativity through visual mediums.

Learn industry-standard software, preparing them for future opportunities.

And the PLA 3D printer filament will enable them to:

Translate digital designs into physical objects.

Develop problem-solving and spatial reasoning skills.

Experience the engineering design process from concept to creation.

Boost their confidence and foster a passion for STEM fields.
