Note:
Before each workshop, be sure you have read the applicable chapters in your textbook and completed the draft of the artifact to be considered that evening.
Rough draft artifacts must be ready to discuss in class, but are not turned in. Your polished final presentations are due on the agreed deadline and must be submitted to the instructor via Canvas.
(I recommend you print out this overview to refer to throughout the semester)
