Syllabus

The grades for this course will reflect
50% the work on your blog and posts
40% class participation and presentations
10% tests and quizzes (in case blog work isn't up to speed for a majority of students)

If we did not use tests and quizzes, the blog grade will go up to 60%. You need to attend every meeting and call if your are sick, or send an email ahead of the meeting. If you miss one meeting without prior ok or a doctor's note afterwards, your grade will be reduced by 5%. Ten% equals a full letter grade.
When posts are due, they need to be on your blog by noon on the day of class for which it was assigned. I record the presence of posts. If assigned posts are not up, your blog grade will suffer 2%-3% for each missed assignment.

I encourage you to contact me at LH 116, or by mail to rhspechtjarvis@gmail.com

This entire web-site serves as an extended syllabus for the course. You will find assignments, presentations, and student work here. Just click on students' names to review their blogs.

1 Always check this blog for homework.
2 Everything you have to write, prepare, or present goes onto your blog.
3 Paper copies are only required for handouts, if announced. All else is electronic.
