Abstract
This paper describes and provides feedback on a Computer Graphics (CG) teaching initiative conducted by the French Association of CG (AFIG in French), as part of its annual national conference (called j.FIG). The AFIG, historically focused primarily on research and doctoral education, has been leading the French academic community in CG for 30 years. Since the beginning of 2021, it has launched a working group dedicated to CG teaching in the Bachelor's and Master's cycles. Its main action was to present panels during the j.FIG, to address issues related to CG teaching on a national scale. This is analyzed in detail in this paper. For each of the four organized panels so far, we present its main goals and the underlying discussions and repercussions, by comparing them with similar state-of-the-art initiatives. Possible actions and proposals to perpetuate the event are finally discussed. More broadly, our ambition is to obtain reactions and provoke necessarily enriching discussions, enabling everyone to escape a little from the teacher's solitude, alone in front of his class.
