Title:

    The Art and Science of Multimedia: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Teaching Multimedia at a Liberal Arts College

Presenter(s)/Author(s):



Abstract:


    At Wellesley College, very rarely do the Fine Art and Computer Science faculty cross paths. At least that was the case until last year when we taught an experimental course that brought together the work we were doing in our respective corners of multimedia into one class. The course was taught for a second time in the spring of 1998 semester and has been incorporated into the curriculum. This paper describes our experience organizing and teaching such a course.
