Core Concepts in Art CD-ROM

INTERIORS CORE CONCEPTS IN ART CD-ROM

The Interiors Core Concepts in Art CD-ROM provides interactive exercises and self-quizzing for students. The CD-ROM was developed to help demonstrate interior design concepts and applications that benefit from exploration beyond the printed page, and to help students test their reading comprehension.

This part of the Instructor’s Manual provides an overview of the CD-ROM and suggests ways of incorporating it into your classroom. As with the chapters of the text, we expect that there will be as many ways to use this CD-ROM in your class as there are ways of using the text. What follows are just a few examples.

The CD-ROM includes five principal sections: Elements in Art, Art Techniques, Chapter Resources, Internet Resources, and Study Skills Primer. These sections are organized as follows.
