Whew!
It was probably too much to cover in a day, but I hope each person got something out of it that they can take back into their own teaching. We ran out of time for a full blown brainstorm session. Perhaps we can use this blog to gather questions and more ideas about media arts integration into K-12 education. I will be posting more resources that apply to the project we did, and links to more info on media arts.
Thanks for your participation!
