My students need access to laptops to be able to do research on artists. The assessments in the course require the students to do a lot of independent research.

Celebrating 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 students at Washington are always full of energy. Every year they surprise me with how open to new ideas they are! I am an art teacher so sometimes I am afraid that art we are looking at will be to "out there" for them, but they continue to surprise me every year.
The students are also very committed to pushing their own creative limits and learning about new artists and artistic techniques.
Their creative energy feeds me every day!
My Project
The laptops will be used by students to do independent research on artists that they find useful and interesting. It is always exciting to have students talk about new artists they have found on their own, they get such a rush from it!
The IB curriculum requires students to do a lot of research over the 2 years they are in the course.
Our school does not have reliable access to laptops on a day to day basis which would really hurt my students ability to research and learn from their research.
In the past students have used phones to do some research when laptops were not available which is a really poor way to view beautiful artworks!
