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.
My Project
We are looking to expand our ability and the opportunity for our students to use industry-standard graphic design software by getting a Mac Mini computer.
The laptops that students are issued by our school district do not have the necessary memory to run these programs or save files.
Each student at our school has a laptop, but they do not have enough RAM or hard drive space to support Adobe software.
The laptops that students have can run basic Microsoft programs and can be used for Internet tasks, and email. They only have enough RAM for these basic tasks.
Think of it this way, have you ever tried to drive a semi-truck on a road the size of the sidewalk? It cannot be done. That's essentially what happens when our students try to use industry-standard software on their school-issued laptops.
Together we can change this and provide exposure to programs at the library media center.
