How might the day-to-day considerations of creating and maintaining a controlled vocabulary translate to activities in the classroom? What might students learn from such exercises? On The Art Genome Project, we have a few activities we use in developing our own controlled vocabulary that we can share with participants, and would be interested to workshop other ideas.
Ellen Tani (Stanford graduate student/Art History instructor/Artsy Contributor) and I (also of Artsy) are proposing this session together.
