[quote align=”center” color=”#999999″]DUE THIS WEEK by Thursday, 10/3.[/quote]

• Challenge 01 REDO/Late : Work on the missing points items that are on your Challenge 01 Score Sheet. Complete the REDO/Late sheet (back side) and put it in the turn-in basket. If you didn’t turn in a photo on time, you have until Thurs (for half credit).
• Challenge 02 : Due Thurs, 3:30pm. You may turn it in anytime before then for full credit.

• Topic of the Week: Work on your Topic of the Week in your journal (see below).
• Artist of the Week: You can start on the Artist of the Week at any time (see below).
• PIXEL QUIZ: On Skyward. All quizzes are open book, so you only have one shot. Use your notes, Google, or the class website for answers. I would rather you find the right answer than not know it at all. The Pixels and Resolution Study Guide is located here. 
  
• Journal: You will be handing it in on Thursday. Be sure to title and number your pages and create a Table of Contents entry. Compare notes with your Photo Buddy to make sure you have everything. If you missed an Artist or a Term, you can find them on the class website.
