Associate Professor of Art History Stephen J. Goldberg in collaboration with Melissa Davies, education director of the Picker Art Gallery at Colgate University, conducted a daylong seminar, "Understanding Traditional and Modern China through New Media," for public school teachers in Central New York. It was held in List Hall and the Dana Arts Center at Colgate on Feb. 28. Conducted under the auspices of the National Consortium for Teaching about Asia Teacher Seminar, the seminar engaged teachers in a reflection on teaching methodology using an object-based inquiry approach.

Sackler Collection in the Picker Art Gallery and Towards an Universal Pictorial Language and Reading Space: The Art of Xu Bing in the Clifford Gallery, Goldberg also presented a digital-image lecture titled "Using Chinese Art to Teach about Chinese Culture and Society."
