It's the only way to ensure that you are the person taking the exam. Essay assignments for this course will require you to assert a thesis, and integrate your ideas, ideas from the course readings, and the thoughts of your fellow classmates in support of your thesis. Assignments will be evaluated on your ability to organize, develop, support and focus your ideas according to the conventions of college-level expository writing. A grading rubric will be provided to you via the course web site. Assignment deadlines are set for a reason.
Late work disrupts the flow of a course and is cumbersome to evaluate.
The course syllabus carefully explains my late assignment policy. If you decide to drop the course, you should let me know right away. In order to access the first lecture and assignment for this course, you must complete a quiz that proves that you have read and understood the course syllabus. The quiz is ungraded, but you must pass it to access the remaining parts of the course. Login instructions depend on the date you attempt to login.
