Pixnexus Companion Handbook
Artist and educator, Isabella La Rocca received her B.A. in Fine Arts from the University of Pennsylvania and her M.F.A. in Photography from Indiana University.  She began her teaching career in 1991 while in graduate school. Since then she has taught thousands of students photography and digital media, from introductory courses to advanced seminars, in state universities, private colleges, art schools, and community colleges. She has witnessed and participated in the evolution of photography from analog to digital and her students have included digital immigrants and digital natives. “I love to connect with people when they learn. I live for the moment the light goes on in my student’s mind. I’ve developed a holistic method that integrates essential theory with training and practice. Throughout my teaching career, I’ve reviewed hundreds of text books, training discs, and e-learning sites; my intention for Pixnexus has been to develop the teaching materials of my dreams, that I’ve yet to encounter anywhere else.”
