We will also use a seminar format as much as possible. Thus, your participation is critical to the course. Students may be called upon at random to contribute ideas or summarize required readings. Students are expected to attend all scheduled classes, and complete readings and assignments by the assigned dates. Class participation and discussion are crucial to the effectiveness of class learning.
Most students also find that class attendance is critical to their success on quizzes.
Students are expected to be in class ON TIME . Tardiness is highly disruptive to the class and thus highly discouraged. Attendance and tardiness records will be kept and they will impact participation. No extra copies of handouts will be available for missed classes. The course grade will be determined from work on these items.
