Teacher Workshop - Learning to Look: 20 Works of Art Across Time and Cultures

This in-service workshop introduces art from around the world as a resource for classroom learning through four themes: stories, people, things we use, and nature. The images and resources explored help teachers (K–12) motivate students to identify shapes, lines, colors, and patterns; learn new vocabulary; decode symbols; understand narrative elements and structures; formulate hypotheses; find and organize supporting evidence; tolerate and respect unfamiliar perspectives and opposing opinions; and apply mathematical concepts to real-life situations. Up to ten teaching kits are provided with each workshop.

Videoconference Showcase

A Central New York School District would like to showcase it's videoconference capabilities to it's own community members by connecting with another school district on May 18, 2010. The connection would be late afternoon into the evening on a night with several events scheduled...(budget vote, art show, science fair, senior citizen dinner). We are looking for another school who would like to simply connect and allow people to see and talk to each other and experience first hand how the technology works and the potential for it.
