Course Information

The course meets for a total of 37.5 contact hours: 5 meetings, each lasting 8 hours, with half an hour scheduled for lunch.

A group critique will be held on each of the first four days of class at approximately 2 PM. Participants may choose to present their work to the group, view and respond to other students' work, or not join in at all but continue to work on their own.

At our final meeting on August 7, participants will turn in a portfolio of all projects, completed. The instructor will photograph each work for reference in calculating final grades and return portfolios to the participants before the final class is dismissed.

Attendance is mandatory. In the event of an unplanned absence, it is the responsibility of the student to complete all missed work, dependent upon the discretion of the instructor.

Participants are required to turn in all projects completed on the final day of class.
