Material from the text, films, and other outside material will be utilized. The tests will cover all material since the previous test and are a combination of essay and multiple choice. The final grade will generally be determined by averaging the exam scores. However, class attendance and participation will also be considered in determining the final grade. You will be given a current and predicted grade on each unit exam.
Study guides are available for each test.
Please also take time to become familiar with my course policies . You are expected to critically think about the material we cover, ask pertinent questions about assigned reading material which you do not understand, and question me about any material I present or assertions I make which cause you any concern. The test dates are accurate. While we will cover the chapters in the order indicated, the date we will cover any specific chapter is tentative. Any changes to this schedule will be announced in class.
