AKA Fuglefun

Tricia Fuglestad, NBCT, K-5 Art Teacher

K-12 in Tech Integration

Fuglefun lessons blend digital and physical art making with transdigital lessons to expand the curriculum, give students an opportunity to explore new media, and find transformative ways for students to demonstrate learning dynamically. These lessons stem from Tricia’s classroom which has been featured in educational publications and higher education textbooks. Her students’ Fugleflicks, student-created, art-related videos have screened at international film festivals and won national awards. She has been recognized for her tech innovation and dedication to art education by NAEA, IAEA, Golden Apple, PBS, Artsonia, and ISTE.

"Art is not accidental.

It comes from skillful hands. Each piece of art is born of an artist's thoughtful plans."

Elementary Musical, Fugleflick 2012
