A great example of VoiceThread in action (involving Art History)

Slick! Check this out.

Hand-Made
This project explored the idea of sculpting objects with film. Each frame of the ‘moving image’ is separated by space instead of time, resulting in three-dimensional form. These vessels are computationally traced and cut, the form generated in video by changing the profile of my hands. Software was written to convert the bitmap frames into vectors for laser cutting.

We use Lynda.com and the feedback has been excellent. Back in 1997, I took a 1-day seminar from Lynda Weinman out at SFSU’s Multimedia Studies Program. I learned more from her in a few hours then I have in many courses. She knows how to make things very understandable…and she’s a great teacher. If she doesn’t know the topic, she selects people who know how to explain that topic in easy-to-understand terms.

So when I saw this item — Connect@NMC: Panel Discussion Led By Laurie Burruss of Lynda.com – Implementing Lynda.com Campus-Wide — I felt that I should pass it along.

Beautiful woodwork art — from Noupe.com by János Rácz

In the age of the Web, with personal computers and tablets, we tend to forget that art has been around for a really, really long time and that this digital field is just one of the many media in which art and design have a form. Fortunately, there are many artists out there who still turn to more traditional methods of creative self-expression.

In this article, we’ve brought to you some of the finest woodwork art pieces. Hopefully, they’ll serve as some inspiration for your professional work, but also as a reminder that it’s always good to get out of your comfort zone and try out something new every once in a while.

The TEAMS Model: Unifying Arts, Academics, and Career and Technical Education — from Edutopia.org by Betty Ray

Editor’s Note: Today’s guest blogger is Jim Brazell, a technology forecaster, author, public speaker, and consultant. It is the second in a five-part series on the convergence of STEM education and the Arts (TEAMS).


TEAMS in Florida

“We are witnessing a new Renaissance,” Bob explains, “where TEAMS work and disciplines are the key to Florida’s creative enterprise from film to educational technology to medicine.” On Friday, June 18, 2010, Bob Allen spoke to the Florida Association of Arts Education (FAAE) about the importance of integrating technology, engineering, arts, mathematics and science (TEAMS). To Bob, integration of STEM and the arts is a no brainer. Bob is the chief storytelling officer of IDEAS, an innovation studio that was spun out of Disney in Orlando.

Florida is a critical state in terms of TEAMS-based education because cultural and technical arts industries accounted for $28 billion dollars in revenue in 2007 with forecasted job growth exceeding biomedical and defense (as a percentage) between 2008 and 2018 (Harper, 2008). The arts are also viewed systemically in Florida across many STEM high technology industries.
