V. Evaluation:
A. Testing Procedures:
Evaluation in this course will be based on the quality of the final drawings produced and short quizzes given during the semester.  Final grades will be calculated as follows:
 Drawings - 70%
 Quizzes  - 30%
B. Laboratory Expectations:
This course is primarily a laboratory course.  Lecture time will be spent explaining the various principles of good graphics.  The laboratory time will be spent by student applying these principles to specific drawings on either the board or the computer.  Approximately 25 drawings will be required during the semester.
C. Field Work:
Outside reading of material in drawing laboratory will be assigned and its completion is a required part of the course.
D. Grading Scale:
  A     91 - 100
  B     81 -  90
  C     71 -  80
  D     60 -  70
  F     Below 60
VI. Policies:
A. Attendance Policy:
Regular attendance is required and expected in this course.  Students who miss the equivalent of 10% in either lecture of laboratory time may, at the discretion of the instructor, be dropped one letter grade.
B. Academic Dishonesty:
Cheating will not be tolerated although student cooperation and information sharing is expected and welcomed during laboratory time.
