Every piece of graded work in the course, what it is worth, and when it is due.

There are no exams in this course. You cannot test spatial awareness in a timed hall, and you cannot dismantle a physical space by writing a standard essay about it. You are assessed entirely on your ability to observe a hostile environment in real time (40%) and your ability to actively reroute it (60%).
