I attended the Cape Town Impact with the portfolio "Salted Lines: Images from the Mouth of the Buffalo. It was fantastic and I will be registering for your conference. Here is a brief proposal for a paper:
PAPER PROPOSAL: Printmaking and the Multiliteracy Approach to Secondary School Syllabi.
The restructuring of the South African education system has seen some radical approaches to activity - based teaching.
I have been involved with putting together a multiliteracy handbook for the Curriculum Development Project in Johannesburg, South Africa, and wrote a chapter which specifically employs printmaking as a vehicle for personal and cultural research.
I would like to present my findings as a paper or as a panellist at the conference.
