It is assumed that students will spend an average of 6 to 8 hours per week in class preparation and related work . Active and constructive participation in class discussions. This assumes that your have prepared in advance by completing the readings and spending time reflecting on the material. You will quickly lose the patience of your colleagues if you do not come to class prepared. Timely completion of written assignments .
Papers are due at the beginning of class.
You may have a grace period of one week on one paper. Thereafter, the grades on late papers will be dropped one full grade . I expect students to be self-motivated, organized, prepared, on time, committed to doing the best work they are capable of, open to being challenged, able to write well, willing to ask constructive questions, and able to contribute relevant comments to class conversations.
