HUH?!
After attending the 2014 national convention in San Diego and witnessing an incredible NAEA Curriculum Slam, originally inspired and curated by the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, a small group of Missouri Art Education Association members saw the need for a similar kind of dynamic curriculum sharing process.
From the national slam description:
"Inspired by the emceed hip hop style poetry slams pioneered in Chicago in the 1980s that brought contemporary aesthetics and style to traditional poetry readings, the Curriculum Slam! reinvents the old-style curriculum fair by adapting a 21st century presentation innovation - the rapid style PechaKucha format. PechaKucha (in which 20 images are set to advance automatically every 20 seconds) was developed by the Klein Dytham achitectural firm in Tokyo because there was a need for a public forum to share innovative work. The PechaKucha format has been adapted to enhance contemporary curriculum sharing.
