How does it work? Find something you are interested in doing. Read the information and watch videos associated with the project or technique. Ask for the supplies you need and go.
How do I get credit for my work? 1. Informal Grades (30%) - Submit any Explore Project or Practice Activity for an extra participation grade of 100%. This allows you the freedom to work and experiment since it will count as a small grade. 2. Formal Grades (70%) - Submit any Explore Project Activity for a regular project grade. Explore Practice activities can't be submitted here. 3. Ungraded - You may choose to just work on something for your own pleasure or enjoyment without submitting it to be graded.
