You will find many of the texts challenging, and you will need to read them thoughtfully several times in order to understand them. If you feel in need of help with the course work, I encourage you to form study groups with your classmates or to come to me during my office hours. If during the semester you experience any difficulty in keeping up with the workload and getting assignments done on time, you should let me know as soon as you can, so we can work round the problem. For guidelines about my policies concerning written work, late work, make-ups, grading policy, and some terminology, see my guidelines page . Good spelling, grammar and writing style are important.
Attendance is required.
