At the end of each week you will receive a grade out of 20 points based on an assessment of your participation and work ethic in each class.

In order for your skills to improve in this course, you must gain an understanding of the information provided and practice the techniques and processes introduced. Class time is provided to learn these skills and it is essential you use this time wisely.

The weekly grade is meant to reflect the credit you have earned for the skills you demonstrate within your studio time.
