Expectations:
Attend class on time, be
prepared to discuss the material, and contribute to a respectful classroom
environment through your punctuality, listening, and participation. If you find
an issue or have concern with your TA, another student, or a comment or aspect
brought up during discussion, please reach out to me privately or during office
hours rather than taking this up during class time.
Participation (within the classroom and through the section blog) is a part of your
grade.
Bring all reading materials
to class as we may refer to them in discussion.
Technology:
Laptops, tablets, or cell
phones may be used for school purposes only. If technology becomes disruptive
to your learning or to the learning of others, you will be asked to no longer
use your device(s).
Email:
I check email daily,
however, I may not get to your email immediately. Please be patient, and I will
get to your email within 48 hours.
Attendance:
You are expected to attend
all sections of class. If for some reason you are unable to make class, it is
your responsibility to reach out to another student to get notes and materials.
Late
Assignments:
Late assignments will not be
accepted, and will only be considered for extreme documented circumstances.
Academic Dishonesty:
No plagiarism or other
academic dishonesty will be tolerated. Plagiarism consists of copying text from
a website, book, fellow student, or other source without crediting that
source. It also consists of
copying ideas without crediting them. If
you plagiarize you will receive a zero for the assignment.
Electronic Assignment Submission:
If you submit assignments
electronically, please submit one document
titled as follows: “LastName_FirstName_AssignmentName_Date.”
Grade Questions:
Feel free to email me if
you have questions about your grade. Please wait 24 hours after receiving your
assignment back before emailing me.

three posts throughout the quarter – one in the first three weeks of the

You are also required to
make three comments on your classmates’ posts throughout the quarter – one in
the first three weeks of the quarter, one in weeks 4-6 and one in weeks

analyzing and assessing it in relation to concepts we have discussed in
lecture.
