Re: ISED: Digital Photography Class

Hi, Barbara,

I can answer a few of these questions:
We do not charge a lab fee.
We do use PhotoShop (don't know where we get it/how much)
We provide some cameras on a sign out/in basis (if they don't return, we
charge the student account, which means they do return, generally), but
students often use their own.
We have two large format printers available. Only students in the photo
class may use them and there is a limit of prints. They are in a locked
location.

Best, Vi

Subject: ISED: Digital Photography Class

Hi ISEDers:

=20

We are launching a digital photography class next year in our upper
school and would like to call upon the expertise of the ISED group to
get past the initial stages of putting this together. We will be using
a mac lab and plan to purchase Adobe Photoshop for each computer. The
class size will be no more than 12. There will be no required course
beforehand.

Here are some questions:

Do you charge a lab fee? If so, how much and what does it cover?

Do you use Adobe Photoshop? Where did you purchase it and how much did
it cost?

Do the students bring their own cameras? If so, do you specify a
certain brand or model?

If students bring their own cameras, do they leave them at school during
the week? How do you provide security for the cameras?

What kind of printer do you have available for printing? Why did you
choose it (ink jet vs. laser)? How did you estimate the cost of the
color cartridges/toner cartridges?

What questions have I not asked?

In advance, I thank you all for your input and your recommendations.
