Individually, you will also prepare a 3-5 page paper on your presentation topic which is due one week after your presentation. The paper itself is due December 5. All papers and assignments are due at the beginning of the class on the date announced. Late materials may be marked down. Computer related problems are not acceptable reasons for lateness.
Students are to attend class regularly.
Attendance will be taken. More than two unexcused absences may negatively affect the final course grade. Students are to come to class prepared to participate in discussion, having read the assigned materials and worked through the reading assignment worksheet. The point of the worksheets is to aid you in comprehension of the readings. Having done the reading in advance will also prepare you for meaningful class discussion.
