Assignments
This course is portfolio-based, which means that major assignments will be finally evaluated at the very end of the term. This approach makes sense because the course work remains under construction until that time.
The additional assignments will be marked as completed/not completed. You will receive regular written and verbal feedback on your work as we proceed, and as you develop your ability to complete the assignments and meet the course objectives.
The positive aspect of this approach is that you have all semester to develop and to improve. The drawback, of course, is that it is simply impossible to succeed if you put off course work until the due date.
