Welcome to the Spring 2015 Semester

This is the blog site that I have set up for my classes at Ocean County College.  Each week I will post information about my classes.  This semester I have a Basic Drawing class (ARTS 183 04) and everything for that class will appear in green text,  and also a Two Dimensional Design class (ARTS 184 E01) for which everything will appear in blue text.  Information about anything outside those classes will appear in black text.

Each post will likely go up in the evening following the class.  The title will include the date and the name of the class, and the post will include a brief description of the day's activities.  I will provide a detailed description of the exercises and projects worked on during the class, along with photos of relevant student work from previous semesters.  I will also include the homework assignments due for the following week, along with what you'll need to bring to class.  About a month's worth of posts will appear on the home page, but earlier ones can be seen by using the archive function in the column on the right side.

This is not an online class and this site is not a substitute for coming to class meetings.  However, it does make it easier for people who miss a class meeting to make up the work, which some do even before the next meeting.  Even a student who never misses a class my find it useful- to see more examples of a project, or to get a reminder about when something is due, or even just to check what materials to bring in.  It's available 24/7, without having to wait for me to reply to an e-mail.  However, if you have any questions that aren't answered here, you are welcome to e-mail me and I will usually get back to you within a day.
