Abstract:


    Transcript of the welcoming speech:
    Welcome to Preparing for the Future, a panel on educational issues in computer graphics. The field of computer graphics education, as no other, combines the disciplines of science and art, and in this sense presents computer graphics instructors in both art and science with some unique problems not faced by their counterparts in other fields.As computer graphics courses become a standard addition in art and science curricula, the way in which we prepare students for this evolutionary field is changing.This panel explores the methods of establishing computer graphics curriculum and maintaining these programs. Panel members will share curricula developments and goals, its integration with existing courses, plan growth, raising monetary resources, hardware and software selection, and various educational issues.This session’s panelists come from varied backgrounds — private and public institutions with limited and unlimited resources to share their experiences with you. The first panelist will be Wayne Carlson, an assistant professor in the department of computer and information science at the Ohio State University.
