宿題が提供されます
✴ While class provides structure, support, information, and inspiration, the way to learn photography is taking pictures! To this goal, targeted projects are assigned each week. Projects are directly connected to the week's lesson, and are set up to encourage experimentation and discovery, in order to facilitate a successful learning process. 

✴ Each class, students will be offered journal prompts to support their creative process and exploration of various photographer's styles.
授業以外に週あたり 2 - 4 時間の学習が期待されます
評価が提供されます
✴ Learner progress is assessed by completion of the projects and participation in discussions.

✴ I am happy to provide a grade or any other assessment/feedback if needed for credit purposes, just message me! Assessment when requested is based on: participation/attendance, journal completion, project completion, and weighted to unit 4/final projects.
