- Lab exercises and classwork: 20%
- Quizzes:10%

Homework
Homework will be assigned each week of the semester and be due before the start of the following class. Turn in your image homework to Flickr. You must share 3- 5 of your best images with the class via the class group on Flickr.
Homework is graded on a scale of 5/10 – 10/10. 5/10 is a grade that corresponds to not doing the homework. 10/10 corresponds to meeting all the requirements for each homework including submitted on time. Late homework loses 1 point per week. After 2 weeks late, homework is assigned 5/10 grade.
Essay on a photographer will be submitted to my email. All other written material will be submitted on Open Lab
