Assignments will vary in content, complexity and duration. All projects will be critiqued, both in-progress and in final form. Students should expect to redo work throughout the semester and before the final juried review. Final grades are based on your overall performance for 16 weeks. I will be pleased to meet with you during scheduled hours or by appointment.
Critiques are a very important part of a studio course.
They develop your ability to present and objectively evaluate your own work and your colleagues' work. They make you verbalize your thoughts and they also develop your ability to take criticism and work constructively with it. Your active verbal contribution will be expected and welcomed at all critiques. One requirement for this course is to keep a sketchbook of your ideas, and notations for each project. You will be expected to organize these pages into a coherent record of your design process.
