Monday, 12:10-3, B1107: Final exam, presentation rehearsals.  People who signed up to bring their laptops, please remember to do so.  Everyone should bring a copy of their presentation (Powerpoint, Quicktime or other) on a thumbdrive or laptop in order to rehearse effectively.

Tuesday, 9-4, Lab 2 2223 (studio/lab): Presentations

Wednesday, 9-1, Lab 2 2223 (studio/lab): Presentations

Thursday, 9-1, C1105: Presentations.  After presentations we’ll break for lunch then reconvene in Lab 2 2223 to clean the studio and receive your portfolios.  Participation in the studio clean up is mandatory.

Amy will soon post the schedule of presentations for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.  Check the schedule so you know when you will be presenting.

The portfolio checklist is on Moodle, as is a self-eval worksheet. Note that you need to include a draft of your self-evaluation with your portfolio.

Before your evaluation conference, please also write one evaluation each for Amy, Kevin and Ruth.  You may turn these in to the Program Secretaries in Lab 2 or give them to your writing workshop faculty in your conference.
