Term Projects Due May 1
Digital Art Projects must be accompanied by a paper evaluating the project in the terms and compared to the examples and readings from the course. All citations and borrowed material must be referenced as traditional footnotes/endnotes and use a reputable system.
Blogs must be substantial enough to serve as the equivalent of a term paper. Commentary must be substantive and knowledgeable and spelling must be checked and corrected.
Good luck!
