Teacher's Instruction
  1. While the students learn the teacher should observe whether they articulate the words like eraser tool, background eraser, magic eraser, hardness, gradient, solid, multicolour, spot healing brush tool, clone tool, healing brush tool and be familiar.
  2. Guidance should be given for the students for every exercise and allow them to share in their peer group.
  3. Ask children to observe how PSD files are organized as layers. Also make them note the advantages of organizing in layers (i.e. Background can be erased without affecting the foreground flower).
  4. Ask them to think about why the magic eraser doesn't work with a more complex background.
