Textbook:   None.   Written material will be distributed in the form of class handouts.

Homework:   While there will be little in this class that resembles traditional homework, students will be expected to spend considerable non-class time taking photos, shooting video footage, writing scripts, storyboards, and articles, and working on the computers to do photo processing and video editing.  

Grading:   Students will be graded on a number of tests, quizzes, and many projects.   Point values will be given with each assignment or quiz.   Mid-term and final grades will be based on a percentage of the possible points earned using the following scale:

     93-100 =A            90-92=A-            87-89=B+            83-86=B            80-82=B-        77-79=C+            73-76=C            70-72=C-            60-69=D            0-59=F
