The idea for a book blog to help preview themes and information about the upcoming research text "Creative Arts in Interdisciplinary Practice, Inquiries for Hope and Change" has been a great success. We've received hundreds of emails and responses about the reference text as a result of the blog where we have posted news previewing information about themes and content while offering inside news about topical stories relating to the work in action and practice.
With the help of the internet and Google Blogger we can do more than publish articles or report the latest data...through video, we introduce you to the contemporary researchers, artists and educators working in this interdisciplinary field and we offer opportunities for you to participate and be a part of the action. We meet as a community with common research interests and "in this room" where we gather we witness these stories and experience energy, creativity, humanity in action.
The stories, reports, videos and helpful links to new sites and resources found here at the book blog will eventually coordinate directly with text content and illuminate each chapter..offering opportunities to enhance class readings and discussions with dynamic and illustrative information directly related to the book "Creative Arts in Interdisciplinary Practice, Inquiries for Hope and Change".
As an academic and contemporary text one of our goals was to help raise awareness about the creative arts in interdisciplinary practice and enliven the learning experience increasing the accessibility to research through internet technologies. An engaging idea. I think if recent feedback is any indication of our progress to date, we are definitely on the right track.
The journey continues.
"Creative Arts in Interdisciplinary Practice, Inquiries for Hope and Change" is the inaugural text in this series of contemporary research texts about the creative arts in interdisciplinary practice.
