Welcome to the Fall 2019 Semester


This is the blog site I have set up for my classes at Kean University.  I have two sections of FA 1000 Introduction to Art, both on Fridays in Vaughn-Eames in room 312, Sec 06 from 9:30 am to 12:15 pm, and Sec 07 from 12:30 to 3:15 pm.  The two sections will follow the same schedule, so one post applies to both meetings that day.  The post title will include the name of the class and date, and the text will be in red print.  Any posts that are not directly related to the class will be in black text.

Each post will include a simple description of what we did in class that day, photos of student examples (if available), instructions for making up the assignment, any specific due dates that may apply (all portfolio work is due the last day of class, but some assignments are individually graded and will have due date), required materials needed for the following class, and any changes that need to be made to the syllabus.   
The Museum Assignment tab includes the assignment and active links to some useful museum websites.

This is not an online class and this blog is not a substitute for for attending and participating in the class.  The purpose of this site is to provide information for registered students who may have had to miss a meeting, so they can make up work quickly, and be prepared for the next meeting. Even students who never miss a class might find it useful to come here to verify due dates, see additional student art examples, or get a reminder of what to bring in.  This blog site is available 24/7 and does not require signing in. This site will have the information to answer the most common questions that students have.  However, if you need additional information or have any other questions, you are welcome to send me an e-mail (address is on the syllabus) and I'll try to respond the same day.
