Hello!

I teach at a public high school "academy". We have CC installed on the computers in my classroom. The problem is, most of these students don't have CC at home, and that makes lesson pacing difficult as my students range from 10-90 on a 1-100 scale with regards to being able to do the assignments.

I asked my principal if we could get additional logins for students to use at home, and she said we could not provide software to install that wasn't installed on district-owned hardware.

I was wondering if this was typical? !

Hello,

We have quite the same type of pb here in high-school and college in Lycee at Villefontaine -France

60.000 $ for CS6 licences and until now it was ok, but the tests with OS monterey and CC are not good enough

I have a big problem to teach to 100 students and 98 pupils with adobe products (applied arts diplomes) : because

1/we must check the licences on the adobe cloud for each course but :
2/we haven't rj45 connections nor wifi in the classrooms ! Some pupils and students can't have datas for sharing the connection and there are no rj45 nor wifi possibilities in the classrooms - Region Auvergne Rhone-Alpes is not ready to install it!

I would like help please ! I would like to teach with some adobe products at high school and college (bachelor in Applied arts) where they have paid for 200 Adobe CC licences !!!!!
So I will use open source solutions waiting help from you, dear Adobe specialists... !

All our Public schools don't have a good web connection service (one fiber access for more than 500 machines) and we really need a more friendly politic ... if the softwares continue to upgrade (by default) at each course they will never use any of the Adobe products…

I really love the CS6 creative suite 64 bits and I will use it as longer as possible on Windows… but think about the MacBook Pro parc at school, where no Adobe solutions can be confortable to teach at the moment !

Bonjour Sandrine,

Vous avez de beaux problèmes. De mon temps, il y a presque 40 ans, il n'y avait déjà pas de salle informatique sans réseau, même si Internet n'existait pas encore.

Je ferai appel soit à Adobe France, soit à un revendeur de produits Adobe. Ils pourront vous faire une offre adaptée à votre école.

Mais, je ne pense pas qu'il soit encore utile aujourd'hui d'enseigner le graphisme sans avoir accès à Internet.

Je ne suis pas de votre avis, nous devons bien faire avec, et ces élèves ne sonbnt pas encore des professionnels je vous le rappelle, notre CDI est très bien fournit pour commencer, mais évidemment le web... Nous sommes tributaires des choix d'équipement de la Region qui finance... si nos eleves n'ont pas de datas en quantité suffisantes, et sont dans un etablissement public, ils sont défavorisés de fait et je refuse cet état de fait... Il est toujours écrit liberté , égalité, fraternité sur nos mairies pourtant...

J'ai fait un cahier des charges pouyr la version CS5_5 qui fonctionnera tres bien sur Windows et nos machines, ainsi au moins une salle info est "égalitaire"...

Vous n'êtes pas d'accord avec ceci ?

Ma déclaration reste la même : vous ne pouvez pas enseigner correctement l'art informatique sans accès à Internet en 2022. Plus encore : pour utiliser les ordinateurs et les logiciels les plus modernes, il faut se connecter à internet. Le choix est limité.

Et, ne pas fournir d'accès à internet à vos étudiants crée une inégalité. Vos élèves sont désavantagés par cette situation.

Yes, this is completely normal for public schools. You'd be more likely to see software made available for home use in private schools or affluent public school districts, but that is entirely up to the people that pay the bills
