This email is for the Cricut experts:

We have a Cricut. I more or less know how to use it. I use Design Space on my school laptop and everything works just fine. I do not have a Cricut Access subscription.

I have lots of questions. Please answer if you have direct experience with any of them. My questions all relate to STUDENTS using the Cricut.

1. Can they use a chromebook to design and connect to the Cricut?
2. What device(s) do you have students use to design and connect?
3. Does each student create their own account, or do you have one library Cricut account?
4. Other than getting lots of design elements for free, does the Cricut Access subscription make a huge difference in your ability to allow students to use the Cricut?

So far I have one student who has used the Cricut. I trust her, so I let her use my laptop after school to design and create. But obviously, that is not ideal on many levels. So I'm trying to figure out what I need to do and/or purchase and/or connect to the Cricut so that different students and teachers can all use the Cricut. 

Thank you for your help!
