Session Description
Media technologies possess the opportunity to provide equitable access to education and educational tools for the global community. Perceive how educators can utilize the internet to find ideas for lessons, expand professional learning communities, and modify digital art lessons to suit the technology needs of specific classrooms. This session focuses on several digital projects shared between two Art teachers whom have never met, but whom collaborate regularly. The teachers share and teach projects with similar goals and objectives, but use different technologies. One instructor will demonstrate the projects using purchase-based software; the other instructor will demonstrate utilizing free online programs. The purpose of the session is to use technology-based projects to demonstrate how teachers can collaborate and collectively problem-solve to make digital art a resource that can be used in both big and small budget programs. Participants receive digital copies of framework, lesson plans, and lists of technology (re)sources.
