30 Day Blogging Challenge from Te@chThought: Day 12

In response to the recent challenge from te@chthought, I'm participating in a 30 day blogging mission, starting September 1st!

Day 12
How do you envision your teaching changing over the next 5 years?

My focus right now is digital storytelling.  As I look ahead in Media Arts, I see a move to mobile devices.  Cameras as we know them will become specialty items for some professional photographers, while students will need to learn sophistication with linking the benefits of various photo/video/animation apps into a conglomerated piece of media or exhibit that will communicate the intended message or story.  It will be interdisciplinary by necessity, because in the next 5 years, traditional classroom teaching will change, and digital storytelling will be a big part of that change.

I see a lot of code in my future.  Web design.  Animation, both 2D and 3D.  Robotics.  3D printing.  Video game design.

The next 5 years... this time frame means everything to the future of Media Arts.
