Midterm Project/Presentation Requirements


The multi-media assignment was introduced on December 18th and the students will be working on it in and out of class during the first three weeks in January. Students should come prepared to hit the ground running on creating and documenting their midterm piece beginning on January 5th.

Students will be required to create a functional or decorative piece and will photograph it throughout the evolution of its construction. The piece must be constructed of at least three different components to create a new and unique form. The finished work must be able to fit in a shoebox.  (For an example: the piece featured above consists of 5 components - a foot, 2 bowls to create a sphere and 2 conical forms. However, it is larger than would fit in a shoebox.) The size limitation is due to the time constraint of building a larger piece.

The photographs will become part of a narrated slideshow where the student explains his/her intentions, techniques and process. The slideshow will be created on their iPads using the educreations app.

Ceramic Work = 50 points.
Narrated Slide-Show = 50 points.
The mid-term assignment requirements and rubrics are available here.
