*Online Courses will run using synchronous or asynchronous remote instruction formats.
- Courses run using synchronous remote instruction will have scheduled meeting days and times. Students are expected to connect remotely during those times. These classes typically involve web conferencing.
- Courses run using asynchronous remote instruction will have no scheduled class sessions. These courses will have a regular schedule of work and assignments due throughout each week but will not require students to be online at a particular time. Rather, the instructor will provide materials—for example, readings, video content, presentations, lectures, assignments, and exams. Students will access these materials and satisfy the course requirements within the time frames specified by the instructor.
Do you appreciate art but cannot find the words to talk about it? Are there events in paintings or sculpture that you can feel but don’t know how to express? The online course in Art Appreciation is an opportunity to look at many pieces of artwork and to learn “art talk.” Travel around the world on your computer to look at all kinds of fine art. This is not an Art History course. The emphasis is on looking and understanding what you see.
Explore the technical and the creative principles of beginning digital photography.

Examination of the techniques, materials, and ideas of drawing, with emphasis on discovery, experimentation, and personal expression in relation to concepts and images in art.
