Today, art teachers of all grade levels are encouraged (and sometimes required) to incorporate technology into their classrooms, but there are some valid and practical concerns about its implementation. When do I have time to teach myself how to do this? How can I make sure my students have access? How can I make digital art meaningful? This presentation is not just about expanding a technical skillset but also about developing technology confidence. We will share our resources and demonstrate several digital tools that cover a wide variety of media, such as 3D modeling, 8-bit animation, and graphic design. All of these web-based tools are accessible on all computers (even Chromebooks!) and require no installation, login, or payment. This presentation is organized into three sections: (1) digital tools overview, (2) relevant student examples, and (3) interactive creative play. We hope you will join us and leave this session with practical skills, technical know-how, and tangible ideas, to bring back into your own classroom.
