Ok, so let's lay out some ground-rules here.
1. The class blog is for my students...this thread is for you guys. If you have questions or feedback, please leave it here. Please do not comment on my posts on the blog and/or any of my students blogs as well. I want your participation to be unseen from their end. I may or may not tell them that they have international observers (thank-you Australia!). If you choose to 'follow' the blog, please do so invisibly.
2. If you want to play along and post your own photos from each of the assignments, this is the appropriate place to do so. I would also say that this is a perfect place for others to offer comments, suggestions, etc...
3. My instruction is NOT infallible. I can't be that presumptuous. What I teach is based on what has worked for me...and yes, I am able to change my mind. Usually I will present my information as just one way of doing things. A good teacher will try to teach two or three different methods and let the students decide which way works best for them. Trust me, you will NOT hurt my feelings if you disagree with a particular point, method or philosophy of working. I may have strong reasons why I teach things the way I do, usually they are based on my diploma from the School of Hard Knocks.
4. I may not be able to comment here as much as I'd like...so don't take it personally.
5. This is being done for your enjoyment and enlightenment. I am not collecting tuition, fees or get a cut from any materials sold through my suggestions on this blog. If you feel the need for a letter grade go somewhere else.
Here's the link to the class blog for Summer Semester 2011.
