John Lefebvre will run this online session for faculty and staff who want to learn about setting up a Zoom account account, scheduling a conference, recording the meeting, and reviewing the recording.  As a bonus, you will also learn about some interesting effects.  This is a repeat of the in-person March 12 session – but this one will be via Zoom.  To obtain the link to join the meeting, email Anne Catlla.

Steve Zides will explain what the Perusal software platform can do, demonstrate how one connects to it via a course Moodle, how it is typically used to assess student reading and perhaps other student activities.  He will start from scratch, showing you how to make the Moodle-based connection to the Perusal website, then how to add pdf files and assignments (on the Perusal site), and finally how to place proper links to those assignments on the course’s Moodle.

This exhibition charts the dizzying speed with which Italian Renaissance art developed between the late 15^th and late 16^th century. Mixtures of Christian subjects and humanist imagery drawn from antiquity are what one would expect from Renaissance art during this era. However, the style shifts rapidly, and artistic daring encouraged by artists, their patrons, and audiences manifest spatial and figural complexities well-represented in these works, as well as varieties in their format and media. 

Thanks to generous loans from David and Julie Tobey in New York and the Bob Jones University Museum and Gallery in Greenville, Art History students in Karen Goodchild’s Renaissance Art class will undertake research on actual Renaissance works, and their semester-long projects will be presented in late April and early May.
