Museums & Selfies?!

Our conversation about artic.edu started drifting toward the social media side of museums and potentially the disconnect between AIC's social media presence and their website.  Here's something re: selfies and museums to think about.

Shifting the Paradigm - Sir Ken Robinson

Are we educating the wrong way? How can we teach in a truly 21st century approach? Sir Ken Robinson has some fantastic thoughts (and a great presentation)

In an Internat Minute....

What does a minute on social media look like? What did it look like last year? The sheer scale is mind-boggling. Check out this snapshot of a minute in 2013 versus another one year later.

Welcome to Cyberpedagogy!

This is the Cyberpedagogy class blog where we will create dialogue with your personal blogs.As stated in the syllabus:

Students will be required to keep an online blog and post to the blog at least twice each week. The postings should focus on issues in art education, responses to the readings, thoughts regarding current projects, or general commentary on life, society, and culture. Students are encouraged to blog more than the two required entries each week. Students will also be required to comment on each other’s blogs with questions, thoughts, etc. in the spirit of support and conversation. At the beginning of class each week, there will be a 5-10 minute period of individual blog review/commenting time to allow students to view and participate in their classmates’ insights. 

......also, have fun! blog about what interests you, confuses you, amuses you. about collisions of this class with your other classes, or a news article, exhibition, or piece of art you are working on. Use this platform for photographs, video, link/urls, poetry, etc. Excited to read your blogs and see the themes that emerge between ours as a class!
