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.
Give this project a boost!
A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
This project aims to keep high-tech instruments secure while also keeping them visible and within students' reach in our Computer Science/Robotics classroom.
When students enter a classroom built for design and engineering learning, they should feel energized and inspired by creative possibilities!
Due to security constraints, we currently keep our lasercutter, 3D printer, and MIDI keyboards locked in cabinets where students cannot see them (and may not know about them).
The Clear Acrylic Sheet Panels are they keystone for this project; they will replace opaque particleboard cabinet doors so students can see (but not touch) the equipment while a print job is in progress. Robotics students are eager to print their 3Dmodels. The Packlock Clasp Hasp Lock Latches and Fosmon TSA Accepted Resettable Multi-Use 4 Digit Combination Padlocks will make cabinets accessible to students using these devices, but secure from students who might interfere.
For our music production station, the QWORK Laptop Cable Lock Anchors and Compulocks Blade Universal Lock Slot Adapters will help us secure laptops and musical instruments like an electronic drum machine and MIDI keyboard dedicated for student use so they don't leave the tables where they belong. Students interested in music production should not have to search for missing or lost equipment when they want to create.
The Brother P Touch Label Tape TZe TZ Tape 12mm will help us clearly label equipment and instructions for use, to help students build industry-accepted relevant vocabulary for performance arts, music production, fabrication, digital modeling, and computer-assisted design (CAD).
For general classroom use, the Simple Deluxe Clamp Lamp Lights help us keep students ocused with task lighting. The Avery Flexible Laser/Inkjet Name Badge Labels keep journals organized. Pencils help students write. :)
Nearly all students from low‑income households
