PARCC ASSESSMENT

An important requirement of this course is that you demonstrate understanding of the PARCC principles. Earlier in the semester we had some practice at this through the weekly blogging requirement but as we approach the end of the semester I want to outline the details of this assessment.

You will be required to analyse at least 10 (you can submit more if you wish) different items of graphic design using the format discussed in class. Click here for a template.

Some important things to remember:

1. It represents 15% of your final grade.
2. You must include at least 10 photos - you are welcome to include more.
3. It must be clear the link between your photo and the analysis. I would suggest something very simple such as photo 1, photo 2 etc.
4. The photos and analysis must be uploaded to Google drive before the last class. Do not use Blogger for this.
5. Include a variety of different designs. Don't for example take photos of 10 signs as it is highly doubtful you would be able to demonstrate your knowledge of all the PARCC principles.
6. The photos must be taken by you and not downloaded from the internet.
7. I would recommend printing the photos on A4 and annotating the photo to show ideas like flow, starting point etc.
