NAFA-Otago Book Launch: Teaching and learning the arts in higher education with technology: Vignettes from practice

Profiles technology-enhanced pedagogies and implementation outcomes in different contexts in higher arts education
Written by artist educators for artist educators
Discusses institutional support strategies for technology-enhanced pedagogies

Teaching and Learning the Arts in Higher Education with Technology was released by Springer Singapore in 2021. This book launch looks into an inquiry about the possibilities of using technology to support the education of artists within higher education contexts. It draws upon the experiences of the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA) through 9 vignettes in the performing and visual arts.

With a naturalistic stance, these chapters illuminate realistic pictures of teaching and learning that are being uncovered by artist-educators, implemented in different artistic learning spaces including classroom, studio, and stage as well as institutional support strategies.

The launch will feature contributors to the book publication: Grace Leong, Gillian Tan, Alicia de Silva, Jacinta Freeman, Winson Ho, Jerry Soo, Tan Choong Kheng, Georgette Yu, Tay Pei Chin and Sumaiya Binte Mohamad Ali. The book is co-edited by Associate Professor Joyce Koh Hwee Ling (Otago University, Higher Education Development Centre), and Dr Rebecca Kan (Pedagogy and Research Unit).
