Your final exam is an independent visual analysis exercise of an artwork chosen by the student. This exercise is very similar to the group project we did and also similar to the weekly artwork discuss

The final format of delivery will be a slideshow & video recording combination of your presentations. Submission Guideline and Options - A. You can display the artwork on your TV and then record your physical body pointing out what you're speaking to as you work through the presentation and slide-deck.

B. Audio recording in PowerPoint. This way you can avoid showing your face, should that make you more comfortable. Make sure we can see your cursor pointing things out as you talk, or be super specific in describing what you're referring to in the artwork as you speak.

There is a section for the "final exam" module on your home page with a critical document called "visual analysis guide". This guide outlines all the terms we learned this semester and is organized by category .

Please let me know if you have questions about the assignment, as it is a large portion of your final course grades.

Extra credit - if you submit your presentations one or two days prior to the deadline, I will give you (2) freebie points in any place on your rubric needing help. If you submit it three or more days before the deadline I will provide you with (3) extra credit points. The additional time to grade will be appreciated.

Additionally, if you physically go to a museum to choose your artwork and prove it by standing next to the artwork, you can earn an additional (2) points when you email me the documentation photo that is date-stamped.
