Details about this class

ART 101 explores a variety of architectural topics, including buildings from around the globe and from ancient civilizations up to today's tallest skyscrapers!

There is no textbook to purchase. Course requirements include quizzes, discussion posts, short writing assignments, and one 2-3 page reflection paper. 

This is an asynchronous online class, which means you are given the course material and you usually have one week to complete it. There are no weekly meetings via Zoom, but you will have regular online interaction with your classmates through discussions. You can also meet with your instructor via Zoom or in person.
