WINTER 2025 VIRTUAL STUDENT EXHIBITION OF CREATIVE PROJECTS

 

ABOUT THE VIRTUAL EXHIBITION

In the past, students who submitted their projects early would receive extra credit and from those projects, a handful would be selected to present them live during the final day of the course. Noah Lucé, presented the Teaching Assistants with an overview of the creative project, and through this discussion, Saul Villegas, a former 2023 TA, shared the idea of creating a virtual exhibition based on his creative research. This idea excited the entire teaching team, so we have worked to adapt to this new modality.

Students who submitted their creative projects early were given extra credit. Additionally, they were given the option to present their work as a part of this virtual gallery. If they opted to do so, they provided written consent (via a Google form) for their work to be displayed here.

 

STUDENT SELECTION PROCESS

Due to the wonderful number of students who chose to participate in the virtual gallery, the instructional team needed to pare down the options for the virtual exhibition. We used the following method to make the process as equitable as possible.

Each TA would look over all entries in their assigned section. From that group of students – they each selected 7-10 projects based on the following criteria: clarity and impact of story, visual cohesion, and originality. Each TA chose their top 5 projects from another TA’s selections to be displayed on the website.

*The instructional team recognizes that this is still not a perfect system (should one even exist), and that our own biases, recognized or not, might have come into play. So much wonderful work was submitted for this assignment that unfortunately could not be published, due to the course’s class size!
