We have made a conscious effort to integrate the ongoing work from the Education Committee into several events during the Education Program at the SIGGRAPH 2006 Conference.2006 Educators Program Chair, Marc Barr (Middle Tennessee State University).We highlight those events here and encourage you to participate in the entire Educators Program.
Forums are great opportunities for feedback on our work. As we come to completion on the multi-year task of defining a knowledge base/curriculum specific to the emerging discipline of computer graphics, we look forward to the opportunity to share this work with a broader audience of educators, students, and industry professionals for feedback and open dialog.
