Welcome to the Spring 2015 Semester


This is the blog site that I have set up for my classes at Kean University.  Each week I will post information about my class.  This semester I currently have a section of Three Dimensional Design (FA 1101) and any information specific to this class will appear with orange text.  Any general information will appear in black text.

Each post will likely go up the evening following the class.  The title will include the date and 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 in class, along with photos of student work from previous semesters.  I will also include homework assignments and due dates, as well as a list of materials needed for the following week's class.  About a month's worth of posts will appear on the home page, but earlier ones can be accessed using the archive function to the right.

This is not an online class, and reviewing this site is not a substitute for coming to class.  However, it does make it easier for people who miss a class meeting to make up the work, which some do before the next week.  Even a student who never misses a class may find it useful- to see more examples of a completed project, or to get a reminder of when something is due, or just to check what materials to bring to class.  It's available 24/7 without having to wait for me to reply to an e-mail.  However, if you have any questions that are not answered by the posted material, you are welcome to send me an e-mail and I will get back to you as soon as I can, generally within 24 hours.
