Abstract: This session will share a collaboration between a high school art teacher and a university professor of special education in the design, building, and implementation of a customized paint brush holder for a student with physical disabiltiies. An online, cloud-based 3d software program was used in the collaboration. The paint brush holder allowed the student to access the art curriculum in a manner that was previously not possible with only the standard paint brush.
