MAD will be open on Mon, May 6.

Teacher’s Professional Development

Sat, Mar 7 / 9 am–3:30 pm

Guillermo Bert (woven by Anita Paillamil); Redemption, 2012

Come discover the creative ways artists use processes to incorporate digital technology and art.  Referencing the artworks in the exhibition New Territories: Laboratories for Design, Craft and Art in Latin America to illustrate ways of implementing and integrating technology and art within school curricula using programs such as Google Earth and QR Codes, teachers will source several examples including interpretations of physical, social and cultural environments.
 
Through the day, MAD’s teaching artist and Teacher Advisory Committee will demonstrate platforms for engaging students through BYOD-Bring Your Own Device; audio recordings, and contemporary bar codes.  Teachers will explore collaborative practices of collecting and telling stories, and will convert narratives into traditional art forms including wearables and maps.

Please review our health and safety protocols before you arrive. MAD strongly recommends all visitors six months and older are vaccinated against Covid-19 and visitors ages two and up wear face coverings, even if vaccinated. Thank you for your cooperation.
