VoiceThread
http://voicethread.com/
VoiceThread is a free tool that enables members to upload images, record accompanying audio commentary, and invite others to add commentary.
VoiceThreads are hosted free of charge at VoiceThread.com and can be embedded in blogs, wikis, and other types of Web sites. A VoiceThread is quick and easy to create, has plenty of space for numerous images and commentaries, and can be accessed by any Internet-enabled computer.
A VoiceThread can also be used to create a video tutorial. You can use the pen tool to draw lines and arrows on an image in real time as you are speaking.
"There are plenty of exciting educational possibilities with VoiceThread, especially in the humanities, fine arts, and foreign languages. In humanities classrooms students can analyze and comment on historically significant photographs and create virtual tours of places or events they are studying. English students can record their own poetry or short story and add evocative images. Photography and Drawing students can present their work and explain their techniques and motivations; students and teachers can then leave commentaries. Foreign language students can upload pictures from a trip and then explain their voyage in the language they are studying." (Tom Daccord)

Develop your Art and Design teaching practice using ICT
http://www.teachernet.gov.uk/supportpack/
Develop your Art and Design teaching practice using ICT using the "ICT Support Pack" (UK 2006) Key Stage 3 (ages 11-14)
Here are all the materials you will need to teach Art and Design using ICT, from planning and preparation to evaluation.
The Practical Support Pack is an online collection of high quality lesson content, lesson plans, multimedia resources and ICT support materials designed to help teachers develop their teaching practice using ICT.
Step-by-step it gives teaching professionals the opportunity to try out new ideas and new ways of teaching familiar topics in their subject. It also shows the role that ICT can play in achieving learning and teaching objectives.
Also includes video case studies
These art & design modules are linked to the National Curriculum and QCA schemes of work.
They address three key focus areas: artists and designers - developing a better understanding of artists' work to help enrich pupils' own; shape and form - two big concepts which pupils can explore in a risk-free way and environment and people - developing ideas that combine traditional materials with digital outcomes.

Art software mimics real paint
http://www.pcw.co.uk/news/1158245
Art software mimics real paint
Corel's new Painter lX is the closest software has yet come to reproducing the effects of paints and brushes with a digital palette, the company claims.
New features include a revamped oil-painting system in which colours behave very much like the real thing; enhanced brush controls; snap-to-path painting; and water colours that stay 'wet' between sessions, allowing you to resume painting where you left off.
A quick-clone tool transforms a photo into a painting, a feature increasingly offered at a price by high-street photographers. Corel says Painter is designed to complement rather than rival imaging packages such as Photoshop.
The Wacom Intuos3 tablets come with a 'lite' version of Painter, a five-button mouse, and a pen with two extra nibs mimicking the feel and effects of a brush and a feltpen. The A4, A5 and A6 versions cost ?05, ?99.99 and ?29.99 ex VAT respectively. A digital airbrush costs ?4.99 extra.

Using the internet in art and design
The use of ICT in art education is pushing forward the boundary between traditional art forms and providing opportunities for students to express ideas in many different ways.
Now that many professional artists are using ICT to develop and create their work, pupils too should have access to ICT to extend and enhance their artwork.
The internet and its wide variety of resources provide an excellent method for research and contextual work but it can also be used in

Evaluating the impact of using ICT in Teaching Art
http://ecs.lewisham.gov.uk/talent/secart/TaLENT_Ar6.htm
Evaluating the impact of using ICT in Teaching Art
Art teachers soon develop an intuition for knowing when to intervene and when to stand back and let the pupil or pupils get on with the task. When using ICT your job is more complex as you need to bear in mind not only the teaching and learning objectives but also the range of resources used and to what extent the pupil has used the resources to develop the work.
