Your Work and Responding
critique posting
and responding (3 parts):
Posting your own work for critique
should be complete by the start of class on the projects due date. Early
posting is allowable.
PART 1 - Please submit the
following to the appropriate project D2L Submission folder for my review:
1) A good quality, well-lit photo of one (1) of your limited edition prints
2) A good quality, well-lit detail photo of one of your limited
edition prints
3) A decent quality photo of all 4+ of your limited
edition prints together (they can be pinned/taped to a wall, or
even on the floor/ground,
etc.)
4) Good quality, well-lit photos of at least three (3) of your experimental set of works as three individual photos
5) A good quality, well-lit detail photo of one of your experimental
set of works
6) A decent quality photo of all 8+ of your experimental
set of works together
* I do need images for grading and not just a combined PDF file.
NOTE: I should be able to see evidence of 2 plates/designs within the
submission of work, if it is not clear, please explain in writing or with
additional photos so I can understand better.
NOTE: Good quality cell phone or similar photographs are appropriate.
Please see information on our site regarding photographing work if you have any
questions.
NOTE: Grading criteria are listed in the project assignment.
PART 2 - Please submit the
following as a Ònew threadÓ in the appropriate critique D2L Discussion Board Topic
for peer review and critique (each student should make their own thread of
images so the comments can be placed with the appropriate works; it is helpful
to provide a thread title that matches the artwork; please place items in
numerical order so it is clear which is which):
1) A brief statement
describing what your works are about or
what they are responding to. You may also include an optional statement
describing elements that went well or that were challenging during the process
(see this example
from another class).
2) A good quality, well-lit photo of one (1) of your limited edition prints (same as above)
3) Good quality, well-lit photos of at least three (3) of your experimental set of works as three individual photos (same as
above)
4) A decent quality photo of all 8+ of your experimental
set of works together (same as above)
5) Optional: any additional photos of your choosing that
might help you get the feedback you need to improve or figure something out.
* If you prefer, you may submit your images combined into a single PDF file. This format is typically
convenient for critique.
PART 3 - Responding and
providing feedback during the critique:
1) Each person should provide feedback on at least 4 other classmatesÕ work to
earn points. You may comment via D2L discussion threads/class verbal critique/class
Zoom chat function. Lets make sure everyone gets feedback!
2) Posted feedback may begin after class has started on
the assignment due date and may continue until the start of class on the next
class day (the following Tuesday or Thursday depending on the day the critique
begins).
3) Each person must also participate in the synchronous
group zoom critique.
in-progress feedback
posting and responding (2 parts):
Posting your own work for
in-progress feedback should be complete by the start of class on the in-progress

NOTE: In-progress feedback is different from (and in
addition to) any posts that you might have made in the weekly discussion
boards.
PART 1 - Please submit the
following as a Ònew threadÓ in the appropriate In-Progress D2L Discussion Board
Topic for feedback:
1) A brief statement
describing what your works are about or
what they are responding to, where you are in the process (this is in-progress
and folks will be all over in the sketching, testing, revising, making,
printing, etc. process), and what is going well or not so far. Also feel free
to ask questions or ask for suggestions.
2) Two or more
photos that show what you are doing.
These may be photos of works or plates or sketches or your setup, etc.
PART 2 - Responding and
providing feedback:
1) Each person should provide feedback on multiple classmatesÕ work.
2) Posted feedback may begin 10 min after class has
started on the assignment due date (at 2:50pm CST) and may continue until the
start of class on the next class day (the following Tuesday or Thursday
depending on the day the critique begins).
NOTE: Contact me if you have any questions in general
or about these processes!
