*Please note, grades (letter/percentage) are not issued for this course.

**The closing date for classes will be one week after the last session.  Work submitted after the close date will not receive feedback.

For interaction: Learners will post their work in the classroom to share with one another. Learners will ask each other questions and be able to give tips and demonstrations to explore new and innovative ways to create objects. Learners are able to post screenshots in the classroom to receive feedback from me as well as other learners. The more we share, the more we will learn. I will be checking the classroom every Monday and Thursday to give feedback and to answer questions. 

I look forward to seeing all of the wonderful creations.

I have a Bachelor's degree from Bowling Green State University in Graphic Design and 20 years of experience working with children in the classroom.
