Social responsibility and sustainable fashion are topics that have prominently emerged as courses within textiles and apparel curriculums over the past ten years in direct response to industry best practices. As the importance of these topics and practices are recognized, there remains a challenge of how to weave this content holistically within an academic curriculum and transfer this learning to student’s real life implications. This interactive session will explore successful approaches for this integration presented by members of Educators for Socially Responsible Apparel Practice (ESRAP), formerly ESRAB. Educators for Socially Responsible Apparel Businesses (ESRAB) was founded in 1999 with the emphasis on increasing awareness and impact of the research and teaching of faculty engaged with social responsibility topics. This session will also highlight the accomplishments the group has made since 1999, reflect on where we currently stand, and plan for the next adventures for ESRAP.

Researchers, who have successfully conducted research using various neuro-physiological measures will discuss theoretical underpinnings, methodological techniques and related research in the areas of electrocardiography (heart-rate), facial electromyography (facial muscle activity), galvanic skin response (sweat/skin conductance), eye-tracking, electroencephalography, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (neural/ brain activity). The goal of this session is to introduce fellow researchers to the unique field of neuro-physiology and provide them with resources to investigate their own future research questions using neuro-physiological measures.

Bloomsbury Publishing and Fairchild Books unveil Bloomsbury Fashion Central, a new digital platform packed with classroom, research and teaching content in one convenient place. With over 600,000 never-before-seen digitally published fashion images, video content, original articles, and more, it will be a perfect resource for any fashion professor, student or scholar. Presenters will give an overview of the product and how it has been designed to meet the needs of students, academics, and instructors, and then invite the feedback of attendees and take questions.
James Campbell will give a presentation focusing on Intellect and the companies publishing program. The presentation will include a section on some important dos and don’ts when it comes to submitting a book proposal or journal article for consideration. This will be followed by a Q&A session.
When we look at technology in the world of education, we tend to do so from current perspective. However, technology and innovations in technology have always been important in education. We can go back to the early 1900’s with the introduction of the radio and on-air classes, to the overhead projector, videotapes, Skinner Testing Machine, and even the handheld calculator in the 1970’s. The 1980’s saw the introduction of computers and the flood gates opened up. Today, a laptop or tablet is common for most students and forget your heavy Biology books, we now have eBooks. In the same way, schools teaching courses in design, pattern making, and merchandising must look at the new technologies available to best prepare their students to enter the modern workforce.
Schools need to look into the evolution of technology in the industry, where CAD is no longer sequestered within the 4 walls of the pattern making room and provide their students with the knowledge of how their skills can span across multiple avenues of the business, design, e-comm, marketing, store planning, merchandising, sales and so much more. It is the obligation of higher learning to best prepare their students to enter the modern workforce with the tools for today and the vision for tomorrow. We at Optitex are proud partners of this initiative at universities nationwide.
The use of half-scale forms in conjunction with CAD for patternmaking is changing the dynamic in the classroom, as students can create using fewer resources: less space, less material, and less time in initial development of patterns, patterns that are ready for first prototype once they are digitized into the CAD system and scaled up. The use of half-scale can also benefit us as professionals, opening a pathway to more efficient development of our own creative practice, and, with the Halfscale Forum, connecting us with our peers across the country, across the world, and from academia to industry. Come see and experience the process of creating on the half-scale form in the classroom and in our own studios. Participants of the Halfscale Forum pilot test and anyone interested in participating in this forum in the future are invited to come and netowrk. Alvanon will also announce the details of their student Half-Scale Design Competition!

A key action item that surfaced from last year’s special topic session on the future of our field was interdisciplinary research and education. At this year’s session we will focus discussion on how to facilitate and encourage interdisciplinary research and education. We will discuss the types of interdisciplinary work to which textile and apparel scholars could contribute on a national and/or global level, and brainstorm how textiles and apparel could remain important within the interdisciplinary collaborations. Specifically, following the Art of Participatory Leadership technique, we will focus on: (a) SWOT analysis of the discipline (or program); (b) grand challenges that we could address providing solutions (and potential funding sources, such as NIH, USDA, or NSF that require interdisciplinary research teams); (c) niche areas that require our unique expertise; (d) areas to improve; and (e) ways to initiate/implement interdisciplinary research and education.
