There is a re-write option for these essays. You must let me know shortly after the essay has been returned that you plan on re-writing. Then, we must discuss my comments and your revision strategies. The re-write is due one week after that meeting. The final exam will be handed out three weeks before the end of term.
Participation includes class discussion and presentations.
Presentations will be every Friday. You will work in pairs and begin class with questions or comments. Your method can be as creative or formal as you like. If you are absent more than four times, your final grade will drop by a full letter grade. It will include connections to all handouts you receive in class.
