Before the class begins: Once the class is full, students are able to request placement on the wait list before the class begins. The wait list has ten spots. If a spot opens up in the class before it begins, the registration system will contact the first person on the wait list via CCSF email to offer them the spot. Wait list students are given a window of time (24 hours) to add the class before their spot is offered to the next student on the wait list. You must check your CCSF email every day. If you are offered a spot in the class and you miss your window, you will be removed from the wait list and your spot will be offered to the next student on the list.

After the class begins: Once the class has begun, the wait list is no longer valid. After the course has begun, all students who were previously on the wait list need to add themselves to the “Class Add Request” list ASAP. Any student can add themselves to the “Class Add Request” list. If there are any open spots in the class after it begins, I will authorize adds for as many spots that are available from the “Class Add Request” list in numerical order on the first day of class and throughout the first few days of the course. You must check your CCSF email every day. If you are offered a spot in the class and you miss your window, you will be removed from the “Class Add Request” list and your spot will be offered to the next student on the list.

IMPORTANT: I will not add any students to the class after the first week. I cannot give extensions on assignments due at the end of Week 1 for students adding the class late in Week 1. As soon as the class enters Week 2, the roster is set, and the class moves forward.

Placement on the wait list or “Class Add Request” list does not guarantee a spot in the class. Please continue to look for other open CCSF classes and assume that you will not get into the class. IMPORTANT: The registration system might indicate that spots are open in the class when in fact those spots are waiting to be claimed by those on the wait list or “Class Add Request” list. Please do not email me about adding the class. Registration will contact you via CCSF email if any spots are available. Thank you.

Attendance
Attendance
Students must login and complete work on Canvas in order to stay in the class. Students who do not complete all work (both discussion post assignments and quiz in Module 1 & 2) from the first week by Sunday, September 7 at 11:59pm may be dropped from the class. Students who do not complete two consecutive discussion assignments (both the initial post and response post) and do not communicate with me may be dropped from the class. Any student who falls below a 60% (total grade) at any point before the Last Day to Drop With 'W' deadline and does not communicate with me may be dropped from the class. I will maintain grade book records via Canvas.

Online and Hybrid Courses: Substantive participation is considered necessary for normal progress in an online or hybrid class. Therefore, a student taking an outline or hybrid course must participate in the class during the first week, and regularly participate throughout the term according to the requirements listed on the instructor's syllabus. Otherwise, the student may be dropped by the instructor as stated in AR 5075 Course Adds, Drops, and Withdrawals or as stated on the instructor's syllabus. Faculty will define required participation in the syllabus for an online or hybrid course and will determine the consequences of a lack of participation.

Completing quizzes or tests is not considered substantive interaction to satisfy attendance in this class. You must complete both the initial post and response post in each discussion assignment to meet the standards of 'instructor-to-student contact' and 'student-to-student contact' as outlined in CCSF's Substantive Interaction for Distance Learning Courses. Completing the response post and refraining from completing the initial post in each discussion assignment does not satisfy the attendance requirement in this class.

I will make my best effort to contact students at least once before dropping them from the course, but keep in mind I typically have hundreds of students per semester. Students are responsible for withdrawing from the course before the posted deadlines (see "Important Dates"). Keep in mind that I must report accurate census reports for all my classes after the first three full weeks of instruction. I also must report accurate records of midterm and final grades. Failure to do so may result in several consequences for CCSF, myself, and my students: the most serious accusation being involvement with financial aid fraud. I will contact students via Canvas Inbox. Please make sure that you check your Canvas Inbox or link Canvas messaging to your CCSF email or preferred email address.

Assignments
The class opens at 8am on Tuesday, September 2 and consists of 17 Modules. We cover all 17 Modules in 16 weeks. The class covers one Module each week except for the first week when we cover two Modules (Modules 1 & 2). You will be able to read material, watch films, and complete assignments for each week beginning each Monday at 8am. Assignments opened on Mondays at 8am must be completed by 11:59pm the following Sunday. Most Modules will require completion of a discussion post, response post, and quiz.

The class requires a minimum of about 6-8 hours of work per week. You will fall behind if you do not plan ahead and complete the work throughout each week. You will have a more difficult time watching feature films, completing the reading (and taking quizzes on the reading) and writing a discussion post/response post for each Module if you wait until the weekend to complete the work. Discussion assignments make up most of the final grade and they require time to receive full points.

This course is not self-paced. I cannot open Modules before their scheduled time to accommodate travel plans, vacation, working ahead of schedule etc. Each week, Modules will open with assignments that have posted due dates.

Each Module page contains the most relevant information from our textbook. I have created hundreds of clips to visually show you most of the films covered in reading. I have also embedded tutorials and short documentaries in the Modules when appropriate.

Discussions
Discussions
All students will be separated into two discussion groups for each discussion assignment. The discussion groups allow you to engage with fewer posts in more detail each week. The people in your discussion group may change as I try to maintain even numbers in each group as the semester progresses. When you enter a discussion assignment, your discussion group will be visible to you at the top of the page.

When you enter a discussion assignment, your discussion group will be visible to you at the top of the page.
I have provided detailed grading rubrics in each discussion assignment that outline how posts are graded. The discussions are graded from 0 points to 3 points. You must meet word count requirements, include embedded media (image/YouTube clip) in your initial post, and respond to at least one classmate to earn full points for each discussion assignment.

Quizzes
Quizzes
All quizzes contain five questions. There is no time limit for each quiz, but you are only allowed one submission. Some questions will present you with images from the clips in the Modules and ask you to identify the term the image is demonstrating. Other questions will present a shot from the Discussion film in the Module and ask you to describe events or identify characters in relationship to that shot. IMPORTANT: You must watch the feature film in each Module carefully: take notes on character names, relationships between people, pivotal scenes, and events in the film etc. The quizzes are designed to give easy points to those who navigate the Modules and watch the film each week. Questions are marked correct or incorrect (no partial credit).

All correct answers to the term identification questions are on the Summaries on the last page of each Module. If a possible answer does not appear on a Summary, then it cannot be an answer that will be marked as correct. When I ask you to identify a single term, please provide an exact term from the Summary. I will not accept something that is close and does not appear in the textbook or Summary. If you enter entire GenAI paragraphs into the answer box on quizzes, I will mark the question incorrect. I just want the single term. I grade every quiz individually. No auto-grading in my classes. Several people get 100% on all the quizzes every term. You just have to spent the 6-8 hours per week with the material.
