Last week, I sent Walter at EmbroidMe Chelmsford a demo design created in Inkscape for us to test out how well Inkscape-produced files work with his printing process. The students seemed to have settled on either using a band name of their choice (one student is doing the logo for a band he is actually in!) or doing ‘band’ logo using their name.

One idea for using this sheet in your own class could be to cut the band names into little squares and have students pick them out of a hat early on in the course.

Then, I set out a sheet with some suggested band names that any student who was still stuck on a name could pick from. We’re halfway through the course – there are 4 sessions left – so the students’ due date for their design is the end of the second-to-last class on February 5th. Then we passed out sheets with a calendar / schedule for the rest of the class. Thursday’s class was primarily a working class.įirst, we passed around a sheet for the students to write out their name, band name, and T-shirt size so EmbroidMe Chelmsford can have the correct size T-shirts ready to go. ( For more general details about the class check out my blog post on day 1.) Thursday’s Class This past Thursday morning, I taught the fifth session of an 8-session (40 minutes per session) course on Inkscape at a Boston-area middle school.
