n. pl. Addenda
A thing to be added; an appendix or addition
The addendum is a written work that highlights supplementary material made to an original document.
It is also known as the Afterword or Appendix.
The addendum seeks to help clarify ideas raised in the paper and to critically connect concepts that were later discovered in the student’s research not made in the original Capstone paper.
Following the completion of your exhibition and oral defense, each student will write a two page (minimum) ADDENDUM or AFTERWORD to incorporate into their Capstone research papers. We ask that you write the Addendum, post oral defense as this is the time that you have the ability to see your year long project come to an end with the defense of your Capstone paper accompanied by your Thesis exhibition.
This written work should state the impact of the student’s scholarly research and the student’s ongoing creative work and how each has served the other’s advancements.
It is an opportunity for the student to look backwards and forwards simultaneously.
The student needs to connect the concepts raised in their Thesis Capstones and other source materials. It is anticipated that this is a thoughtfully authored work will help place the student’s creative output into the context of the art historical practice they are about to enter as professional artists.
And, if your creative progress influentially steered the Research paper.
