Please note that final grades are just that, final. There are no provisions in this course for doing extra work as a way of improving a final grade. If you have any questions about any of these policies, please let me know. To do this, however, means that you will need to be diligent and put effort into learning the material that we will consider during the semester. You can learn the material in BA 150 in a number of different ways.
Some students believe that it is necessary to memorize the course material to do well on the exams.
On the other hand, memorization often prevents you from really learning material, and from being able to use the information effectively at some point in the future. Some students find that if they can make the class material more meaningful to themselves, then not only do they do a good job on any exam, they are also better able to use the material in the future. Remember, what is meaningful to you is not necessarily meaningful to someone else. If you need additional help with any of the course materials, please let me know. If you would like to talk about other courses offered in the 150 series, I'd also be happy to talk with you about these.
