Digital Photography and Media One Semester-long Class Fine Arts Productivity and Work Attitudes will be KEY! Be in CLASS-don’t be absent or tardy! Turn in Work! Learn by Doing which means there will be very few lectures. You will be given work to accomplish and directions to do it. The learning comes when you do what you are asked. If you avoid doing what is asked you will not learn as much. If you come to class and just sit around and waste time you will not learn anything. The more you put into this class the more you will get out of it.
