Approaches and Challenges towards Animation Education
Animation is being taught in schools all over the world at various levels of success. In this panel we wish to explore current approaches towards animation education and share best practices as well as the challenges facing these schools. Aspects such as policies, enrolment and class management issues to curriculum structure, pedagogy and success stories can be brought up and discussed to find out how animation institutions are effectively educating their students and preparing them for their roles in the industry. Towards the end of the panel we can also explore future developments in animation education and possible challenges that lie ahead.
