With the Fall semester starting, rest assured MACA has been working throughout this summer to get classes ready. It\u2019s no secret that the world has changed quite a bit over the passing months. MACA is dedicated to ensuring we continue its mission of providing students with the skills needed to prepare you for your future.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>For Fall, we\u2019ve adapted all previously on-ground courses to be run completely remote, except for 3 courses. This means that the classes will be run through Canvas and other online tools. There will be no on-ground portion of these classes required and you can work on assignments from the comfort and safety of your home.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The 3 courses below do need to have an on-ground portion. They require specific equipment that would be unreasonable for students to purchase or assignments that need to be accomplished together in person. On-ground classes will require safety protocols.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>MACA 1065: Black and White Photography<br>MACA 2210: Studio Photography<br>MACA 1410: Television\/Video Studio Production<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>As we are getting our classes ready to pursue a smooth start in a few weeks, I encourage you to do the same. Regardless of the method of delivery, you should look around your house to find an area you are able to work. Somewhere with good lighting, distraction-free, and comfortable to work is essential. I would also encourage you to browse through this site&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/macaatmacomb.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MACAatMacomb.com<\/a>&nbsp;to see some of the explainer videos and check out the updated design for our&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/macaatmacomb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/MACA_DEGREE_SPECIALTIES_OVERVIEW.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MACA Brochure<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Depending on the class, you will need specific equipment. This may be books, cameras, computers, software, or other items. In the week before the semester starts, August 10, instructors will be working to provide early access to these classes so you can get your material before the class starts.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>For students who may need it, the college has a pool of funds that may help those who need it. You can get more information from the SOS (Student Options of Success).<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Registration is going to be wrapping up in the coming weeks. If you are interested in adding classes, register soon. There are seats open in the following classes. Even if the courses aren&#8217;t required for your current specialty, they may be helpful in adding skills to your knowledge base or working towards a second Associates.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">MACA 1010 H1207<br>MACA 1010 H1211<\/span><\/strong><br><strong>Introduction to Photography<\/strong> \u2013 Learn the basics of working with a digital camera and communicating through a still image.
