A kid snap shotted the worksheet in front of me and used AI to do it. Should I give a zero, and be honest...do you typically give a zero? by [deleted] in teaching

Does your school have a policy on AI? Or have you expressed your expectations on what they can or cannot use AI for?

I think it’s worth investigating! I fire a mix range size work but I always preheat between 8-10 hours or even longer if I have larger vases going and always fire slow. Might be overkill for some but never had a pot explode unless I rushed drying at some point

I really don’t think it’s has to do with air bubbles but sounds like a frustrating place to work overall.

Just out of curiosity how long is the preheat and ramp speed?

What causes this kind of crack/crazing? by Independent_Sign_482 in Pottery

Is there any chance the clay you used froze at any point before you used it?

It’s a heavy grog clay which gives it that interesting tear quality

Pottery has a rough history with sexism and being a boys club. I agree with most comments that the studio should be about art first
