成績評価
Your grade for the course will be based on your participation in our class meetings and the work you produce for the classes. This, however, requires that you attend class regularly and also that you be prepared for class by doing any required research, shooting the required pictures and selecting the images to view in the class in advance. These you can bring on a CD/DVD or a memory card. Each one will be required to produce one complete photo-essay and prepare the way to present it at the end of the course. 70% of your course grade will come from the effort you will put and the quality of work that you will be able to produce with your photo essay.
