UPCOMING: QUIZ, MIDTERM!
Hello DESMA 9 students!
The quiz will only be available to take form 9am to 9pm on Friday May 1st. You will only have 7 minutes from when you open the quiz to finish it and there will be 20 questions. You won't be able to log off for a long time and then get back on again with all the same time left to spare. Once you start it, the countdown clock starts. So be sure your Internet connection is stable! We will not be accepting any excuses!
Be sure to read/watch the med tech + art unit. This will be covered in the quiz along with the first 3 units (2 cultures, math + art, and robotics + art).
Also, remember that your midterm is due on May 3! You should start coming up with ideas NOW, and you may want to meet with your TAs during office hours or send us emails if you want some feedback.
Finally -- don't forget about events! The quarter is basically half way over (can you believe it?) so you will soon run out of time if you are not on top of this.

This would count as an event for your blogs too, and is a great chance to attend an event on campus.

A note about your blogs
Hi everyone,
I wanted to give you all some general feedback about your blogs this week. I have to say that overall we are not very pleased with the quality of the writing we have seen so far. We need you to be original in your thoughts and writings...just rehashing exactly what you read in the articles and saying "it's really cool" or it "opened your eyes" or that "connecting art and science is really important" is NOT going to cut it. We've not been grading down too much for it so far since the first two weeks are really about settling into the material, but starting with the week 3 blogs we're going to be expecting a lot more from you. We need to know that you've gone to outside sources and made an effort to understand and relate the material to yourself and to the bigger picture.
I also want to remind you that we will start grading down harder for blog posts that aren't properly cited in MLA format. That includes the works cited list as well as in-text citations. I have to stress that images are not sources, and there should only be one or two sources MAX that are actually from the course material, so remember that for next week. We need to see you going the extra step. That is the whole point of the blog.
A quick reminder: there is an Art|Sci Center exhibition on Thursday (tomorrow) that can count towards your events. I recommend you go and check it out! I'll be there. Come say hi if you like.
Thanks!
Rita
