Building the World-Wide Community of Graphics Educators
Wednesday, 4 - 5 pm
Room 502B

The fast pace of change in computer graphics (CG) makes it difficult for educators to continually design up-to-date, meaningful, and robust curricula that address the full potential of the technology. The most valuable resource for CG educators is access to an international community of like-minded people who teach digital media in all forms. This forum addresses the following issues:

• How can we build a worldwide community of computer graphics and digital media educators?


• How we can provide a method for the people involved to share information?


• How can the community collaborate to move disciplines that use digital media forward?


• How do we build a system for educators to share information, and what should it look like?


• How can the online community spur collaborations, foster creativity, and make rich connections to further the field?
