Student Course Description

This class gives students a chance to look back on their work from other courses that they have taken in the Arts and Humanities, and provides them with the opportunity to revise one of those projects. The revision project is more of a reimagination of a past project, where students can utilize the new skills they have learned after that assignment to make a better version of it. In addition, students are given the chance to reflect on the skills that they have picked up from their education overall.
