During the afternoon of the last day of your workshop please set aside ten minutes for students to complete the online Summer Course Evaluation Form which is linked in the Berlin Program on the last day of each the three sessions, and available here. You should leave the room during this time.
Faculty Presentations
On the first day of each workshop, faculty leading that session’s workshops will make 30 minute presentations of their own work. To complement and reinforce Transart’s ethos of work-in-progress please address your presentation to work in-the-making rather than a summary of recent finished work/s or accomplishment/s beyond referencing it for context.
Meetings
Meeting times have been set aside most mornings. Use these times to meet with your student advisees (in person or via Skype) and for other kinds of meetings you would like to hold. Please check program to see which studio has been allocated for meetings.
