Digital art brings up important questions about creativity for Year 9 students.

1. Dependence on Technology:

   • Students might rely too much on digital tools. This can make it hard for them to use their natural artistic skills.

2. Access Problems:

   • Not every student has the same access to good technology. This creates unequal learning chances for everyone.

3. Questions of Authenticity:

   • It's easy to copy styles and ideas when creating art digitally. This raises worries about being original and true to one's own work.

Some Solutions:

• Encourage students to practice traditional art methods as well as digital ones. This helps them build a well-rounded set of skills.
• Create school programs that ensure all students can use technology easily.
• Start conversations about ethics and originality in digital art. This can help students think more critically about their work.

By tackling these challenges, art classes can help students express themselves in new and genuine ways in the digital world.
