My Project
Students have expressed interest and wonder about producing real-products within the classroom setting. They are ambitious, curious and creative students who want to pick up skills that they can market after their exit from high school.
All of these items were curated based on industry-suggested starting equipment that would allow students to go through the entire process of printing, heat-pressing, and overall producing prints they can share with the community.
My goal would be to have students develop skills that can translate into the real world, allowing them to start their own business and be entrepreneurs. My secondary goal would be to teach them a process that allows for critical thinking, and problem solving in a real-world environment.
Students will be working with a process called sublimation printing. This allows them to print their own photographs or designs and heat press them onto shirts they can share with their peers. They will use the shirts provided here as the base material, the print from the ink, and the heat related items to heat press their prints onto their shirts. Teflon paper will be used to ensure the materials (print and shirt) do not burn or melt. After pressing, the air blower will be used to cool the print safely, allowing students to speed the process for peeling without damage or risk.
More than half of students from low‑income households
