Just a reminder that we have a channel on YouTube for the Ricard Academy! Any videos I show in class I will try to find and put on our YouTube channel so that you can refer to them later. Just look for the “Channel” button on the menu above.
If you find any of interest that please let me know so I can add it! Subscribe now!
You should be working on Ediscio.com to create your flashcards to study. I will be expecting all flashcards made for CH 2 by 9/13 and for CH 3 by 9/15.
For a list of key terms and major works of art for each chapter, grab the following document and make sure they are all accounted for:
Flashcards_Key Terms and Art_Ricard
You might want to coordinate things a bit, to keep from doubling up. So, collaborate either through our group forum,by starting a topic to discuss the flashcards or on Ediscio.
Now that you have signed up for your Gmail account, linked up with Gravatar, and created a Twitter account to get updates, you are set for the final part of our signups to start the year – getting access to our online discussion group!
To do this, simply go on over to RicardAcademy.info and create an account. You will need to use any combination of first name, last initial or first initial, last name for your ID. If that is taken, just use your Gmail handle. This is important so I know who to give credit to for your participation.
After you have done this, you will need to get access to our private group for AP Art History. To do this, simply navigate to “Groups” and find our course group listed there (or you can just follow the “Group” tab at the top of the page here). You will have to request access which I will then confirm and only then will you be let in.
Once you have gained access, go on over to “Forum” and post in the discussion under “Welcome!”. That will show me that you made it to the group and know how to navigate within the group.
Your first homework assignment of the new school year is to take care of all of your signups and information.
Read over your syllabus and remember to bring the last page signed back to me.
Complete your signups. We are going to be doing a lot of work online, so you will need a Gmail, a Gravatar, and a Twitter account. Follow the instructions here:
Finally, please fill out the student contact information survey – this will update me on the latest information to contact you with.
That’s it! Finish everything by 8/29!
The new syllabus has been uploaded!
Here is the link for the syllabus itself:
You can also navigate over to the “Syllabus” tab to find the document there. You must print out the last page, sign it, and return it to me so I can put it on your file. You are responsible for everything that is mentioned in the syllabus – so be sure to read it over!
