You are expected to complete assignments for each session prior to class time, so that you can contribute your ideas, thoughts, and questions to our class discussions. My primary intent is to generate as much discussion during class time as possible, so that you will each have the opportunity for thoughtful consideration and discussion of the material we cover. Therefore, the Brain Bag will be passed around weekly so that each of you has the opportunity to submit questions or comments for subsequent discussion in class or on an individual basis. Attendance will, therefore, be taken at every class. Five points will be subtracted from your total points for the class for each unexcused absence.
Homework assignments vary, in accordance with the material being covered.
You will work individually and in groups throughout the semester on a variety of activities. Further details regarding all assignments and group activities will be provided during class. There are no make-ups for late homework assignments. The possibilities are truly limitless, bounded only by your interests and curiosity. You may collaborate with classmates on these excursions.
