Unleashing Creativity and Learning: Introducing a New App at Barrington High School!

We are thrilled to add the design app Procreate to our high school's Self Service app toolkit. This app is the number one design app for iPad and is used by professionals in a variety of creative fields. This app allows students to use their Logitech Crayon or an Apple Pencil for creative drawing projects in a variety of classes. 

Procreate is a design app for creating digital artwork and illustrations. It offers a comprehensive set of brushes, layers, editing tools, and a user-friendly interface.

Procreate was purchased for use in graphic design and digital arts classes, but has many uses beyond those classes. This app is a strong option any time a student might want to draw, design, or otherwise create. Students and staff should consider Procreate for quick drawing, design, or for more significant projects such as:

• Sketchnotes
• Designs for logos, posters, or product packaging 
• Scientific illustrations and diagrams
• Timelines, historical maps, and other visual interpretations of historic events
• Infographics and presentations
• Geometric illustrations, graphs, and diagrams
• Digital flashcards
• Illustrations of scenes from novels, digital storyboards, and design book covers

Our school embraces a culture of creativity, innovation, student engagement, and dynamic learning environments for students and teachers. The addition of Procreate into our high school app collection allows students and teachers a new versatile toolset for drawing and design options not previously available.
