The group grade will be assigned by your peers, and I will determine your individual grade. Paper A ten page paper is due the last scheduled day of class. It will be concerned with questions raised in the first several class periods dealing with the class as a whole, in other words, issues which will be recurring throughout the semester. In addition much of your grade in this course will depend on quizzes and exams, and if you miss too many classes, I guarantee you will perform poorly. Frequent absences will result in failure for the course.
Papers are due on the date assigned.at the beginning of class.
Late papers are penalized one full letter grade per day. Students may not plagiarize. Plagiarism is the act of taking the words or ideas of another person and passing them off as your own. Therefore, cite any and all quotes properly. Close paraphrasing by changing a word or two or the tense of the verbs is plagiarism when you do not acknowledge the source.
