Episode 157: Visual Expression Technology
Laura and Matt GrundlerBen Forta
Over the past few years, the use of technology in the classroom has accelerated dramatically. Whether it’s employing tablets or shifting to a hybrid learning model—technology is here to stay. This means there must be a variety of tools in the educator’s box. At the forefront of where education and tech meet is Adobe’s Senior Director of Education Initiatives, Ben Forta. Ben joins the Creativity Department in this episode to discuss visual expression, the importance of CREATING content for consuming (vs. consuming other people’s content), and the tools Adobe provides for creating. Listen in to hear how technology is more than the device to display information, it’s a meaningful way to engage students in learning.
