Additional comments:
The "I Am An Artist" website is a visual arts initiative aimed at primary school children.
It comprises 30 short TV programmes (each 6 minutes in length) and an interactive website with factsheets, weblinks and interactive games on a wide range of visual arts topics. The content for the site is created in consultation with Irish teachers. The website will aim to support teachers and students in the adoption and delivery of the revised primary visual arts curriculum recently introduced in Ireland.
The "I Am An Artist" website is part of a collaborative project between RTÉ (Ireland's public service broadcaster) and the National Centre for Technology in Education (an agency of the Department of Education and Science). This collaborative project is entitled IMMERSE - Innovative Multimedia Educational Resources for Students and Educators. It has set out to develop innovative, interactive, curriculum-relevant resources for students and teachers in the Irish education system.
The site was recently shortlisted and won a Golden Spider award.
