Vector Drawing Software

"An excellent vector drawing software for PC’s, really easy to use and an ideal choice for schools."  "I'm sure the kids will appreciate the benefits of using a 'proper' vector drawing program" (school quotes)

 

aspexDraw is an educational software developed for schools, the drawing screen and tools are so easy to learn and use that anyone who can control a mouse can soon be producing their own computer art and graphics. Children enjoy using aspexDraw and because they don’t have to spend hours finding out how to do things, they have more time to express their artistic talents making original computer graphics. aspexDraw handles most Acorn Drawfiles.

“Thanks for pointing out the Aspex Draw program, it fits the bill perfectly. I’ve been able to get access to the thousands of Acorn Draw files from the SSERC graphics Library, as well as a number of other useful sources."

"It’s so easy to use, which is ideal, so I’ve been able to lay out some very complex scaled arrangements of our equipment clipart using the Isometric Grids, for the pupil’s new worksheets. A few minutes to lay them out and edit for the current project and we can use the results not only as worksheets, but on the SmartBoards as active content as well."

“… remarkable value for money for schools.

Intuitive, very simple to use yet with many powerful features

normally found in more expensive products.” 

 

Why is there a need for an  Vector Drawing Educational Software

 

“We have been looking around for a drawing software for a long time, one that is suitable for use by all the pupils at our school”

 

Computers and ICT are now more and more a part of the mainstream of everyone’s life, at home as well as at school and in the workplace. The need for children to receive an adequate practical education in how to use them is becoming urgent and pressing. ICT is now a vital part of the curriculum, because IT skills are necessary before pupils can gain access to resources on the Internet and on CD to help their study in all other subjects.

 

Acquiring skills in making and using computer graphics is now considered so important that pupils are now expected to learn to use a drawing program to make images and visual models as part of normal Primary education. The Graphical Modelling Unit 5A of the QCA document for Information Technology requires pupils to use an object-based drawing package, such as aspexDraw. (An object based package is in contrast to a painting package which is pixel-based where only pixels rather than objects can be re-coloured or moved)

 

A paint package has limitations due to the fact that the image is described and constructed from tiny pixels rather like the dots in a newspaper picture. As you enlarge a painted image, it becomes fuzzy or “pixellated” , straight lines become like staircases and curves become angular.

 

Object-based drawing software does not have this limitation. As you enlarge an object-based image, it stays sharp and its shape does not change. You can manipulate any element of your drawing separately from any other part of the drawing, copying, stretching, resizing, turning and repositioning it. This is a very flexible and logical way to construct images and removes much of the frustration students may feel when using a painting package.

 

In the world of educational software there has been a scarcity of suitable object-based drawing packages for use in schools. aspexDraw was developed to address this need.
