This does not mean you must talk a lot to receive a superior, but it does mean that you will not be sleeping in class, working on assignments, or talking to your neighbor. To receive participation points, you must be prepared for class discussion and willing to contribute. Participation counts 50 points. You are allowed two unexcused absences during the semester. Three tardies equal one absence.
Educational leniency is excused.
Late assignments are not accepted, so plan ahead. If you must miss class, you are responsible to get the assignment for the next class from a classmate. If you have educational leniency, you are expected to turn in work before the absence. If you have any questions or concerns about the course, make an appointment to see me. I have ample office hours set aside to assist you.
