This edited volume broadens the understanding of the media arts at a
global scale bringing together practices and ideas from artists and art
educators from around the world. Authors explore issues of cultural and
social diversity in fields of education, media theory, and critical
theories of education and pedagogy with particular attention to digital
technologies' impact on visual arts learning. Researchers utilize a
range of methodologies including participant-researcher ethnographies,
action research, case study, and design based research. These artists
and art educators share new research about the pedagogical and
theoretical aspects of media arts in educational systems that are facing
unprecedented change. This volume begins to map why and how experts are
working within networked society and playing with digital innovations
through media arts education as a critical and creative practice.
