Course Intro Photo 11/12

Course Introduction

Welcome to Photo 11-12 everyone! This semester will be very busy, so it is very important that we all work together, manage out time and have a lot of fun taking very creative photos.

The first task that you will be doing is building a WIX blog. This Blog is a communication tool that links you to me. You can find my Wix blog at https://muellervaughn.wixsite.com/my-site

here you will be able to link to all assignments, announcements etc.

All projects you do will be uploaded to this blog. I will mark all your projects on your blog. As a precautionary measure make sure you save your projects to ONE DRIVE on the computer then you can transfer them to your Blog from there. There are no excuses for not having your work saved somewhere. (do not save your work to my pictures on the computer.)

There will be times when you have questions regarding the technology that I may not be able to answer and there may be times where you can answer my questions. I will do my best if I am unsure of the answer to find it out for you. But you will have to be patient. Many of the programs we will be using this year are new to me as well. The following are a list of expectations for this quarter.

- Arrive on time with a good attitude.

- Be courteous and polite, in essence a good classroom citizen.

- No food or drinks will be permitted near the computers.

- Come prepared with all the required equipment.

- Work hard to the best of your ability.

- Be a trusting and courteous member of the community when signed out taking pictures.

-manage and utilize your time.

- Always make sure you sign out with Mr. Mueller in the photo sign out book, and at the front desk when leaving the building with your photo ID card.

- There will be no picture taking in the hallways or classroom of the school.

You will need the following supplies for this course.

1. Camera - this can include any digital camera that has both manual and automatic settings.

2. Memory Card for your camera (these will not be supplied)

3. A thumb drive for backing up or transferring photos.

*Remember it is your responsibility to bring your cameras and supplies to class every day.
