Hi there nettime,
I imagine many folks here have plenty of knowledge about the following.
I'm on the Digital Arts faculty of a large extra-curricular kid /
teen art school in Vancouver called Arts Umbrella. I'm working to
conceive / propose a teaching project that uses collaborative
technology in the art classroom, whether for digital arts, dance,
music, architecture, theatre, cartooning, or some combination thereof.
Does anyone know of such a project they've had good experience with,
or that looks interesting? Something that might provide a good model
of challenging the kids, bringing out the artist in them? A program
that artists, teachers, or kids would look at and say, "I wish WE had
a program like that?"
What I'm conceiving is either a short (1-3 week) intensive class, or
perhaps one or more 12-week after-school / weekend courses. I'm more
interested in technology that lets the kids collaborate together,
rather than simply innovation in the teacher-student relationship.
This is us:
