Most of the time, we'll learn more from our interactions as well. Giving and receiving criticism. We'll practice doing both in here. In a social system, our very existence, to say nothing of our happiness, depends on the honesty of others and ourselves. Whether you buy these arguments or not, the expectation of this class is that you will practice with integrity.
Entire publications can go awry if one person's work is late.
Given this, we'll practice punctuality in here. Work is due at the start of class . If your work is consistently on time, you will be rewarded for this in your professionalism and participation grade. If your work is not on time, don't be surprised if you suffer some kind of penalty, as you would in the real world. The benefits of practicing punctuality until it becomes automatic will accrue not just to your future employers, but also to you.
