Course Objective:
By developing/enhancing both technical and creative apparel construction skills,
students will become creators and appreciators of distinctive pieces of wearable
art. Students will also gain an understanding of how to display their artistic
creations for others to appreciate.
FCSC Competencies:
mkaszuba@uwyo.edu
Students in this class will have the opportunity to develop their skills in
the following FCSC required competencies:
Critical Thinking and Problem Solving
Professional Behavior
Attendance: Attendance is required and a roll shall be taken at each class. Two or more
unexplained absences WILL result in a lower grade, through the loss of laboratory
technique/professional behavior grade points. Arriving at class late, or leaving early
(unless the day’s assignment is complete) will be noted and listed as only partial
attendance, and may contribute to the loss of grade points. Excused absences will
require advance notification of the intent to miss class, contact via e-mail or voice mail
before the completion of the class period, an official doctor’s note or an official
university excuse. If you are sick, please stay home, but be sure to contact the
instructor before the end of class so your absence will be excused! If you have
repeated absences due to illness, you will very likely be expected to verify with a
doctor’s note.
Grading:
Grades will be assigned as follows:
90 - 100%

Grades will be assigned for the following:
Sample Portfolio
Final Project
Laboratory Technique/Professional Behavior
50%
35%
15%
Total
100%
Laboratory Technique/Professional Behavior Grade:
This grade will encompass several aspects of classroom performance/professional behavior, and
will be awarded at the instructor’s discretion based on observations of individuals’
performances/professional behavior in each area. It includes responsible use and treatment of ALL
laboratory equipment. Points will be deducted for any mistreatment of sewing machines and
equipment. This also includes basic maintenance of equipment, such as regular cleaning and oiling.
Spot checks will be made to determine the level of maintenance being performed. Loss of equipment
will also result in a loss of grade points.
Poor attendance (see above) WILL result in a loss of points in this area. ALL students MUST work
on their sample portfolio and their final project(s) DURING CLASS HOURS. Additional time may
be spent, if needed, outside class hours, either at home (with instructor’s permission) or in the
laboratory (at prearranged times only). Failure to work on projects during class is likely to result
in the forfeiture of the laboratory technique/classroom performance grade AND a grade of an F
on the project or sample in question.
This grade will also be used to assess each student’s level of preparation for class - this includes
doing all required homework (both reading and sample preparation if assigned) as well as coming
to class with required supplies and materials. As with all university classes, there IS an expectation
that students will complete homework for this class, with a maximum expectation of an average of
3 hours for each credit hour per week (i.e. an average of a maximum of 9 hours per week). This
homework time does NOT include hours required to make up work missed due to class absences.
This grade also includes working on the assigned task for the day – class time may NOT be used to
make up missed and/or incomplete assignments from previous days or late assignments except with
the permission of the instructor! Students WILL be expected to read and attempt to follow any/all
written directions, and use the supplied samples during class – a student’s level of effort and
application/critical thinking and problem solving during class will impact this grade.
Note: Cell phone use is NOT permitted during class time, including text messaging – this wastes
class time designed for working on assignments. Such a waste of class time will result in the loss of
grade points. This grade will additionally address students’ level of courtesy to both instructors and
other class members.
Sample and Project Grading Policies:
NO late assignments will be accepted, unless they are accompanied by an official university
excuse or doctor’s note, AND/OR direct contact was made with the instructor to indicate the
student has a serious illness as per the attendance policy. Specific arrangements for the revised
2
due date(s) of late or missed assignments DUE TO ILLNESS must be made directly with the
instructor. If you are sick/absent on the day an assignment is due, you will not be required to come
to campus to submit the assignment on that day ONLY IF you have contacted the instructor as
required in the attendance policy. Please submit your assignment on the revised date worked out with
the instructor. Assignments may be left in the instructor’s mailbox (in Ag. 249). It is the student’s
responsibility to use the syllabus to be aware of ALL assignment and project due dates – “I didn’t
know it was due today” will not be accepted as an excuse for the lack of submission of an
assignment.
NOTE If you are having difficulty keeping up, PLEASE come and discuss this with your instructor
ASAP so we can work on a way to assist you before it becomes too overwhelming, and before too
many points are lost because of incomplete assignments!! It is YOUR responsibility to make an
appointment with the instructor to discuss your difficulties.
ALL samples and projects must be appropriately labeled (your name and individual
project/sample name) and submitted with appropriate grade sheet
Completed progress/supply checks for jacket project
Correct and/or appropriate techniques used throughout
Quality of workmanship
Neatness and cleanliness of project and techniques
Correct pressing techniques used throughout (project and samples must be pressed before
grading)
Appropriate choice of fabric or materials for project style
Appropriate selection of notions for project (not critical for samples)
Garment fit, when appropriate
Appropriateness of style for student. It is acceptable to construct your garment for a
family member or friend if desired but fit will still need to be assessed if physically
possible
Consideration will be given for the difficulty level of the jacket project
Continuation of learning and skill progression
Disability/Accommodations
If you have a physical, learning, sensory, or psychological disability and require
accommodations, please let me know as soon as possible. You will need to register with and
provide documentation of your disability to University Disability Support Services (UDSS) in
Student Educational Opportunity (SEO) room 330 of Knight Hall.

FINAL PROJECT (due Monday 4/23 by ABSOLUTELY NO LATER THAN 7 p.m.)
Each student will be required to produce a wearable art jacket, using a combination of the fabric
manipulation techniques learned in the sample portfolio. Any jacket pattern with long sleeves may be
used - a variety will be available in class, or the student is free to design their own. The jacket should be
fully lined, and may be quilted if desired. The choice of color scheme, techniques used, etc. is entirely
the student's. A minimum of four different techniques must be incorporated. These techniques must
be included in such a way as to make a SIGNIFICANT contribution to the garment (i.e. a single
buttonhole is not acceptable for consideration as a technique for inclusion). Those students enrolled for
graduate credit (FCSC 5178) will be required to produce an entire outfit i.e. the jacket as described
previously and an additional coordinating piece, such as pants, dress, skirt, etc. which does not need to
be embellished as for the jacket.
ALL students (including those enrolled for audit) will be required as part of this project to participate in
a public exhibition of their work (Friday April 27th, 5 - 8 p.m.). The exhibit will be housed in the loggia
area of the American Heritage Center, and will remain in place for the summer. It is expected that ALL
students will cooperate fully, including having garments completed by the necessary date for the
exhibition, as well as providing information for narrative text to be used in the exhibit, and a list of
guests to be invited to the exhibit opening on or before scheduled deadlines (all to be provided
electronically in the appropriate format to Dr. Brown). It is also possible that all students will be
expected to participate in fund raising activities to help support the cost of mounting the exhibit, and the
opening reception.
Students registered for audit WILL be required to complete the appropriate final project as described
above, as well as participate in the final exhibit. You are welcome to submit samples for grading, but
are not required to do so, but should plan on working on samples with other class members throughout
the semester. i.e. if registered for FCSC 5178 for audit, a jacket AND coordinating piece MUST be
completed.
