In class, students are required to actively participate by offering relevant comments when appropriate. Students will be expected to share ideas and writing, and to listen to other people's ideas and written work. Some of this will be done in small groups. It is partly your responsibility to make the class interesting by participating in class and by doing your reading assignments on time. I do not accept late assignments.
Papers are due at the beginning of class.
The student will still be counted absent for that day. I will often assign some response to a reading during or before class meets. These assignments contribute to the participation grade. All work submitted for this course must be your own and written exclusively for this course. If you have any questions regarding this policy please see me.
