These assignments are designated on the course outline and described in detail at the end of the syllabus. The goal of these assignments is to provide a forum that takes students beyond the text to prepare for class lectures and discussions. Assignments are due at the beginning of class and may include, for example, critical responses to readings or completing a short activity. They will be evaluated according to the depth and quality of the student's thinking and writing on a given topic. Students who miss a significant number of class meetings will receive grades lower than their point total depending on the amount of class missed.
