The integration of computer art in the art curriculum

Abstract

Computer art is a relatively new medium for most art teachers. There appears to be uncertainty on how to incorporate it into the art curriculum. This study investigated the use of computer art in the elementary, middle/junior high, and high school art curriculum in West Central Wisconsin. The study was conducted in all of C.E.S.A. 10 schools during the fall of 1999- 2000 school year. This study includes a survey to determine what type of computer, software programs, and equipment are used by the art teachers? The study explores how the elementary, middle/junior high, and high school art teachers receive training for technology in computer art.
