An Art Mystery

Eduweb is a company that utilizes todays technology in optimal ways to make learning memorable. I think this quote from their website says it all.

"At eduweb, our goal is to develop the most engaging and effective online learning experiences possible. To this end, we engage in research to better understand learning theory, learner preferences and engagement, and educational outcomes."

One of their interactive experiences is the "Case of Grandpa's Painting". It uses a playful way to compare artists and talk about color, composition, and perspective in relationship to specific artists.

I am going to use this piece when I talk to some of my students about the Dewey Decimal Section - 700-799 Art & Recreation.
