Yes, attendance is mandatory, and we will meet everyday at the regular class time unless otherwise notified. You have 15 minutes after the posted time of class starting to arrive. Once you are in class the professor will check the roster for your attendance. 2. What happens if I miss a class? You are responsible for getting the notes from another student. You may watch some lectures on the professors youtube channel, but this does not count as attendance. 3. Where can I find the information about grading and tests? Please see the syllabus for the grading scale, my contact information and the test information. The syllabus is in collaborative and in my faculty page. Your grades will be turned back to you as soon as possible.

For the class grade grades, students can see them via a degree audit. The professor will make this clear as the term draws to a close. 5. Will there be official office hours? Yes.

Also during the week on the days we have no class I will not be looking at emails unless I am working on assignments for students. On class meeting days, I will answer emails, unless otherwise indicated. Please do not text me unless I tell you to do so. Art Project for ARH 1000/ Dr. Whidden The Getty Museum Challenge
For this project, you will be choosing a famous piece of art to recreate using items or people you have in your daily life. You must compose the piece to replicate the positioning of the main subject(s) to the best of your ability. Then you will take a photo of your interpretation and submit it to me via email as a JPEG attachment. Your replica will be judged on the following criteria, think of this as the rubric for those of you unfamiliar with art critiques. 1. How well does your piece imitate the original? For instance, things like the proportion of things and the basic arrangement will be looked at (possible 50 pts). 2. How original is your interpretation, what touches make this unique to you? (50 pts.). This project will be 10% of your final grade. Please have fun and take pride in your work. The following video links are news broadcasts about this challenge so you can see some examples.

How well does your piece imitate the original? For instance, things like the proportion of things and the basic arrangement will be looked at. Did you follow the same basic arrangement of the visual elements? Think about the message of the original. (possible 50 pts) 2. How original is your interpretation, what touches make this unique to you? Have you stayed true to the intent of the original? Does it still have the same impact? (possible 50 pts.) Research Paper Guidelines and Rubric 1. For your topic, choose a visual artist to research and evaluate based on their contribution to the visual arts. This can include painters, sculptors, photographers,
architects, and film makers. It would be best to link this with your Getty Museum Challenge; this is highly recommended! 2. You must be able to find at least four sources on this artist and their background. Two of these sources must be scholarly. In other words, if you decide to only use websites two must have .edu or.org http endings. Of course, books must have sources listed in them. Magazine articles must have sources listed in them. Newspapers will work as well as they come from a credible publication. Interviews of contemporary artists or scholars are also allowed. No Wikipedia allowed! 3. Make sure you give examples of the artists most well-known works to proves your point. 4. Because these papers are research papers, they must fulfill all the necessary requirements of a formal essay (citation, double-spaced, 12 pt. font and a minimum of 5 paragraphs). These type of things are all part of this formatting requirement. Follow the MLA guidelines for writing. These papers must also be 2-3 full pages; No longer than 5 pages. If you do not have proper citation your paper will be given a failing grade. 5. Watch the following instructional videos for help with some of these issues.

Citation & Formatting (how well did you give citation for the paraphrased information? Do you format the information correctly? If no in text citation is used this will result in a 0 for this portion of your grade) 2. Grammar/ Sentence Sense/ Paragraph Structure 3. Content (do you just repeat the facts or do you analyze the information? This will greatly affect your grade for this portion. Do not cut and paste information!) 4. Analysis (Of course this is critical all of the data should be relevant and support your main thesis as to why this artist is important.) 5. Points will be given in increments of 10, 15, 20, 25. (If none of the criteria is satisfied for these four requirements, then a 0 will be given for that portion of the grade.)
