Required Textbook
Activities
At the completion of this course students will: 1. Have a basic understanding of the tools and technologies of the design profession. 2. Generate projects required by GRDSN 113 Projects Grading / Evaluation: Grading is based on moving control of learning from the "instructor" to the "learner." This competency based educational approach considers "time" a variable and "mastery" a constant. On any given project the student will receive either a "3.0" which indicates adequate completion of the criteria and competency list. If the student does not meet these industry standards they will receive an "I" for incomplete which means the student needs more time to achieve mastery. Mastery levels are determined by industry entry level requirements. At the end of the quarter students are required to have logged 80hrs of lab time using the lab time sheet provided. If a student receives an "Incomplete" on any given project, they have until 5pm of the last scheduled class of the quarter to "complete" the project. Any projects late after this date/time receive a 0.0 grade. To obtain a "4.0" student must exceed expect ions in either work ethic, artistic ability, production skills, writing skills, computer skills, people skills or idea development.
