Call for Art - Due Nov. 14, 2022

Module banners in Canvas can be a tool for the creative expressions of teaching and learning. Creating such banners interweaves research, creative work and teaching/mentoring. This call for art invites UNLV faculty and staff to submit their original Canvas Module banner(s) for inclusion in the Best Teaching Practices Expo and becomes part of a peer-reviewed open access digital archive hosted by UNLV Libraries.

Use this proposal form for art.

A selection committee will evaluate submissions based on the submitted artwork and short statements by the artist elucidating how the banner interweaves creative work, teaching, and research. 

The artist or collaborators should submit the following materials through the form:  

• Artist or collaborators contact information (anonymized before the peer review process by the organizer) 

• Link to the banner (anonymized before the peer review process by the organizer)
