See the first assignment for a set of example answers. The tests will be conducted at mid-term and on the last day of class. If taken via email, it must be completed on this schedule. All grading is based on the assumption that average work is equal to a grade of about 80 on a scale of 0 to 100. Higher grades require evidence of an above average understanding of the material, and an above average application of the materials to social issues.
Grades are available online as they are generated.
All papers and discussion receive numeric or letter grades that are on a scale of 0 to 100. The course grade is the weighted average of all grades. I receive many files as attachments over email from students and colleagues. For readability, both papers should be double-spaced and in a font no smaller than 12. Also, please do not use full-justification since it is difficult for me to read.
