NEW COURSE CALENDAR + more

The Nutz & Boltz of it...

Each of our lives have taken extremely different shapes following the global outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, I am NOT requiring for all of us to come together to follow a lecture at a certain time on a certain day.  

But rather, you will have the opportunity to complete all of our course work when it is convenient for you, on your own time. 

Make sure you are onboard with all of your course readings  and other course requirements on the following:
Ancient Greece 
Ancient Romans & Etruscans
Jewish, Early Christian Art & Byzantine Art 
Medieval Art 
Gothic Art - I will introduce, although will not complete the chapter
* I have not strayed off too much from our original syllabus, but know, that I am tightening up some chapter areas with less information to be delivered.

By all means, please strike ahead in your notes if you feel you can with readings, viewing YouTube videos and other links I will be posting.

1. As a student of FA111 you need to check into our class blog SP2020CazFA111.blogspot.com between the hours of 9 am and 6 PM on TUE & THU and to our blog.
Make note of this in your personal calendars.

2. I will alert you to any new updates to our blog pages through your CAZ email as I post them. 
This is your responsibility alone to keep a close eye on your CAZ email.

3. Make sure to comply with all DUE dates.  Should you not understand something or are having problems with anything you need to pose those questions to me by email at jpepper@cazenovia immediately.


4. You have two research papers to complete.

**Students will complete 2 research papers
***Students will send a short Comparative Analysis of two forms, one from our text, the other produced in the last hundred years.  I will be launching this assignment shortly on our blog.  This will replace the multi media presentation from the original syllabus.
