HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 Santa Clara Adult Education's spring term begins January 4, 2021.
                          REGISTRATION IS OPEN NOW!
      All classes will be held entirely online via virtual meeting until further notice. Here are my class offerings for the winter term:                    

• Drawing All Levels
• Watercolor / Pen & Ink 
• Acrylic & Oil Painting 
• Drawing to Painting - Start to Finish 
• Knitting & Crochet for All 
• Talking Fencing Online
• Currently both Fencing All Levels and Fencing Pedagogy is not offered due to COVID-19 precautions. When it is safe we will be back in the salle, so please check back or contact Janine Sahm, Master at Arms.    

     The online format consists of lecture, demonstration, online materials, critique, and virtual office hours. I learned a lot over the summer term and continue to work to improve the online learning experience. If you have any questions or concerns please contact Janine Sahm at jsahm@scusd.net .
     Thank you for your patronage. I hope to see you soon!
Regards,
Janine Sahm

tech requirements

      You will need a device, such as smartphone, tablet, or computer, and a wifi connection. Live virtual meetings will be held using Zoom or Google Meet. Class materials will be posted in Google Classroom. 
      In order to access Google Classroom you will need an assigned district email address. I was informed that a IT ticket for district email addresses will only be issued after enough students have enrolled to ensure the class.
      If, for unforeseen reasons, there are problems accessing Google Classroom I am setting up alternative ways to post assignments and materials.
      Some lectures and/or demonstrations will be recorded. Otherwise, material will be posted. If you miss class and need help catching up you can schedule a meeting with Janine Sahm during virtual office hours (contact Ms. Sahm via email to schedule).
      This is new for all, so I ask for your patience as we find our way. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me. I will do my best to find solutions.
