Grades = Feedback!

Scores lower than 80 will usually have comments for what you need to work on specifically to raise a score. If not, check the rubric below or posted with assignments. Also look for comments on submitted assignments as well- I post some specific advice on how to improve work, especially if you have a low score. Since there's always options for improving work, there is no "extra credit" for this class. Earn the regular credit!

​Planning & Critiques
These assignments are a all about building your visual language and art making skills. Learning  vocabulary, practicing skills, and building background knowledge are essential for developing strong dynamic artwork.

Perform Assignments

Art Projects & Exams
After planning for a project, it’s time to make one! Every project will have a set of requirements that usually incorporate things like media (materials), skill focus, size, time and content focus (what it’s about). Requirements might be more specific for some projects than others. You are welcome, and expected, to apply your creativity as much as you want if you’re still meeting the requirements.

Daily Work/Tasks Completion
These assignments help track your progress with Rehearse and Perform assignments. Task lists are posted on CreativeSchmit.com weekly and the Daily Announcements Presentation in class every day. Just need to turn in images of whatever was expected to be done in class that day. If you’re absent for these assignments, just need to make up the tasks missed. For example, if you missed time working on a project, you’ll need to make up that time missed outside of class time before the assignments lock the following week.
