  abstract =     "A computer graphics course is extremely hardware
                 system dependent, even more than most computer science
                 courses. To produce high quality graphics images
                 requires a high resolution system with extensive color
                 capability and a fast cpu. Fortunately, the computer
                 graphics capabilities of inexpensive systems have
                 continued to increase. As this trend continues we need
                 to consider changing the way we teach our computer
                 graphics courses. In this paper I discuss a major shift
                 in my teaching methods in the past year. Whereas,
                 previously my students developed their own programs to
                 create images, I have switched to the use of the Pixar
                 RenderMan graphics package in the second graphics
                 course and use it at the end of the first graphics
                 course. I will discuss the rational for this change,
                 mine and the students' experiences with it, and future
                 planned modifications of the courses.",
