Arts Online New Zealand
Arts Online links to the widest possible range of educational and arts organizations, individuals and networks in New Zealand and internationally.
Arts research and professional readings, teaching materials, ICT digital resources, and digistories can be viewed throughout the website. Digistories, Engaging with the Curriculum and Student Gallery, and Case Studies are examples of the latest developments. Online professional learning programmes eg http://artsonline2.tki.org.nz/interact/visartspd/ for teachers and artists are being further developed in 2011 and 2012 through collaboration between Arts Online and the Virtual Learning Network.
The NZ Ministry of Education funds Arts Online through a contract for services with Cognition Education Limited. Arts Online is the arts community on the Ministry’s education website – Te Kete Ipurangi.
Arts Online is also supported by the NZ Qualifications Authority through sharing their National Moderators’ expertise in our online forums and video conference professional learning programmes in the arts. As a publishing website, Arts Online connects with individuals, groups, networks and projects around the world.
