Virtual Critique next Wednesday, November 6!

We will having a virtual critique for the Poster Project. This means you do not need to come to class as normal. Instead, you are to make comments of thoughtful observations on each student's work which should be posted on the blogs. Check the list at the right for a list of student blogs.
There are a few requirements for this to work:

1. You must post your poster to your blog by class time (8:30 am on Wednesday Nov 6). It is a good idea to write a little bit about your poster in the post. You might write what your intention was, or something about the process, anything that would be helpful for us to know in order to give you a thoughtful critique. You may also post other versions of your poster, or your research. JUST MAKE SURE WE KNOW WHAT YOUR FINAL VERSION IS.

2. You must comment on each student's work. At least two constructive criticisms and one positive observation (there may be more, these are usually easier).

3. You must make your posts by the end of the day on Wednesday November 6 (at midnight). If you are late, still make the posts but you will lose points. Yes, you will be getting graded on this!!!!!

***Remember, if you have trouble making your posts, email them to me at caroline.santa@gmail.com*** You will probably need to be logged into your blogger account to make posts.***
