Teaches: art, elements of art, art history

CTR Review

In this interesting but passive art appreciation CD-ROM, students view narrated slide shows and take multiple choice quizzes on what they've learned. Content covers topics like Lines and the Art of Drawing, Landscape and Perspective and Architecture and Digital Imaging. The program takes great pains to introduce students to the basic elements of art, as well as how to critique and evaluate it. Art history is also presented. We just wish there was more interactivity. The experience is similar to watching a video.
