& Words of Advice Please
keep up with your reading. We will cover most chapters of the book. The
pages and chapters covered for each class are listed and you should
have read these pages before each class--your understanding and class
participation will be greatly enhanced by being current on your
reading. Students will be chosen at random in class to relate concepts
they have learned from the reading assignment. Keeping notes as you
read and/or highlighting key passages will assist you in your
presentation when called upon.
Please notify the instructor of
any planned absences--multiple absences without notification can result
in being taken off the class roster.
Cheating will not be
tolerated. If cheating occurs, a grade of F will be assigned to the particular exam/assignment or for the entire course. Also, a
letter to the Dean will be sent explaining this action.
Respect
your fellow students. Listen attentively to what they have to say. Be
considerate in your comments. An objective of the class is to make all
participants feel comfortable and encouraged to actively participate
and express their opinions.
Let's all enjoy the class, learn and
have fun!
