CLASS PREPARATION

 

ABC Art requires at least a tablet or a laptop, or connecting a tablet to a laptop for the students to draw. If a webcam is unavailable, a cellphone, a laptop, or a computer could act as the webcam or camera for the whole class. If the student draws on a tab and lays it flat on a surface, the teacher cannot see the student so it is difficult for the teacher to communicate with them. Therefore, at least two gadgets are required for the class to go smoothly: first is for the webcam or any gadget which could act as a webcam, and second is an iPad or tablet where the student could draw.

Since the class is conducted online, there are some things that you need to prepare before the class:

1. The class is conducted through Google Meet. You need to download the application through the play store or any app market if you haven't downloaded it yet.

2. Google Meet requires a Google account to download. If you do not have a Google account, please follow the steps below to create one.

To sign up for Gmail, create a Google Account. You can use your Google Account username and password to sign in to Gmail and other Google products, such as YouTube, Google Play, and Google Drive.

The link or code of the google meet will be sent 10 minutes before the start of the class through messenger or KakaoTalk.

The teacher or the owner of the link will then admit you in the class. The link of the drawing program will then be sent in the message panel of the google meet, at the bottom-right corner of the screen. Now, let's learn how to use the drawing program. In the drawing program, the basic course uses a whiteboard. When the level goes up, most of the students will then use the Aggie program, which is a collaborative abbreviated version of Photoshop.

 

The program can be used together by both the students and the teacher by simply registering on the Internet or typing the code of the program created.
