Abstract

In 2005, Bowdoin College began work on the replacement of analog slide projectors with digital projection. The project began as a collaboration between Information Technology and the Art History department. Art History faculty members are some of the most discerning when it comes to color reproduction and image resolution. If IT could meet their needs, digital image adoption across campus would be easier. The cutting edge project required cross-campus problem solving and team work in three areas-- hardware, software and digital asset management. To date the project has produced outstanding results that include the development of an institutional digital asset management policy and guidelines, and a new multimedia classroom package that combines innovative hardware and software solutions that enables faculty members to teach comparative classes digitally.
