Tests will not be cumulative. No make-up tests will be given in this class. Papers should be typed, double spaced, and be about four pages per chapter covered. They will ONLY be accepted with a note certifying medical care or the death of someone close. Please note any computational errors, identify pages from the text that support your answer or articulate any ambiguity in the wording of the question that caused problems.
Weekly papers are internet based assignments designed to complement the required reading.
They are also designed to provide additional material for class discussions. I will NOT accept papers sent as attachments to email although you can put late paper in my mailbox. Proper citation to internet sources is required for all of these papers. This syllabus lists 9 possible 2 page weekly assignments. You only need to do 8 of these.
