Abstract:
CGEMS, the Computer Graphics Educational Materials Source, aims at supporting a worldwide community of Computer Graphics educators. Our goal in developing this service is to provide a means for educators’ work to be appraised and disseminated to other members of the community through an online server for refereed educational content. Since it was presented last year at SIGGRAPH in San Diego, CGEMS has evolved into a full-fledged peer-reviewed medium. This paper presents the current state of the server, reports on work developed and dissemination activities, but most importantly describes how and why educators should submit content.
