Ask questions about things you don t understand. Do you have any questions, concerns, etc. This writing exercise will be used in different ways, sometimes we will use it to start a new activity, sometimes it will be used to review old information, most of the time it will be collected, sometimes it won t be collected. This is a tool for me to see how you are dealing with the different material we cover in class. This is part of your participation grade and your grade will be reduced if you are late to class and miss this writing activity.
Plagiarism can have serious consequences.
Plagiarism is one type of academic dishonesty which may result not only in failure in this class but also suspension or dismissal from the university. My theory is that this class should be interesting and informative for each of you. It is sometimes hard to satisfy the needs of students coming from so many different disciplines. Please tell me if you have any suggestions or recommendations about what I can do to improve this class.
