Team Teaching Animation Art and Technology
Conference Paper, Proceedings of ACM SIGGRAPH '04 Educators Program, August, 2004
Abstract
In this paper we report on an interdisciplinary course, "Animation Art and Technology," which we have taught for the past two years at Carnegie Mellon University. Faculty and teaching assistants from computer science and art teach the class as a team and the students are an interdisciplinary mix. This class is a project-based course in which teams of students produce 4-5 animations. Most of the animations have a substantive technical component and the students are challenged to consider innovation with content to be equal with the technical. In this paper, we describe the structure of the class and assess the elements that have worked well and those that require improvement.
