Precision Is Key

Help me give my students tools to help them work more precisely with their 3d design software.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. la manna's classroom raised $203

My Project

My students require a mouse and stylus to help aid them in their 3d design work. Currently they are using the touchpad on a Chromebook and they struggle to work with the more precise areas of their models. I have at the moment 1 mouse and I have seen how effective it is for students who are asking to take turns to use it.

If each student was able to have their own mouse, it would make such a difference to their classroom designs.

The stylus would allow students to create their animations using software that uses a touchscreen and currently they are using their finger and a stylus would help to create a cleaner image.
