Student participation goes beyond the formal structure of the curriculum. Professional collaboration, partnering, and networking begins with your classmates now. Your classmates will be your colleagues in the future. Plan to be involved with your classmates now. Build community through projects, study groups, informal get-togethers, parties, and general dialogue.
Participation reflects preparation and engagement in content.
It adds an important dimension to learning for all. Students and instructors learn from each other. Be positive in your effort to cooperate and learn. Do presentations and assignments within the established specifications. Avoid short cuts and any hint of dishonesty.
