Week 12 Preparations
By now you should have consulted with me at least once about your folios progress.
Once you have completed your folio, please do the following.
- Put your files in a folder with your name on it.
- Name your files in a way that will have them be shown in the order you want to show them.
- Write 3 paragraphs about the following 3 questions, ‘what you did’, ‘why you did what you did’, ‘how you did what you did’.
On the day, just copy the folder of files to the teaching computer, then use the built in software to run a slideshow of your images to share with the rest of the class.

He is an English professor by training and writes very eloquently about art & photography. I have scanned some of his writings for you to read.
