Your grade in this class will be determined your attendance record, your ability to explain your thinking (in both speech and writing), and your participation in class. For all assignments, you will submit your working .indd file (or other file) via Dropbox File Requests. The link for each assignment submission can be found on this web page during the week leading up to its due date. Late projects without a medical excuse will automatically be dropped one-half letter grade.
