ELEMENTARY STUDENTS GET A LESSON IN DTG PRINTING

摘要

For the average person (who doesn't print for a living), the opportunity to decorate your own T-shirt is much more impactful than someone simply handing you a pre-printed garment. Elementary school students at Burrell School District near Pittsburgh gained this special, firsthand experience by printing their own shirts in their classrooms. The district's Summer Reading Challenge committee came up with the idea to have each student print his or her own T-shirt celebrating the program. Melinda Kulick, Burrell's business, computer, and information technology teacher, reached out to Allegheny Educational Systems, a technology provider for schools, to explore equipment options. She borrowed a Roland VersaStudio BT-12 direct-to-garment printer and the kids got to work.
