Notes: Today you all received new syllabi, as the dates were offset in your old ones (THANK YOU RITA!). We also had our first paper due today in class. Next Tuesday we will have a quiz on the assigned reading.
Week 2
Tuesday:
HW - Zehnder ch. 3, 69-79 and 82-85, Pg. 90 QR 1-5.
Friday:
HW: Read Zehnder pg. 91-109. Paper 1 due.
Notes - I was talking to Miss Cocker and she mentioned that in her class, students had not been aware of the paper due on Tuesday.
A couple things in light of that: First, always remember to check your syllabus for these due dates. We briefly spoke of the paper before I left, and it should not have come as a surprise to anyone. That being said, I do understand that things have been confusing with the in and out of teachers this last week. Second, I mentioned that we would have a quiz next week, either Friday or Tuesday. Friday you will have a sub so we will not have a quiz on Friday, and you will all be rushed with HW on Tuesday if you did not realise you had a paper due. For that reason, we will not have a quiz this week. We will have a quiz on Tuesday, September 30th, the week I return.
Week 1
Tuesday:
Today we talked about the beginning of the Enlightenment and Scientific Revolution. We did not have time to discuss Hobbes and Lock and we will hopefully return to them later.
HW - Read: Zehnder, pg. 34-38 & 41-52. Complete QR, 1-2 pg. 68. (Do not bother with QR pg. 39)
Notes - I will be gone at a wedding so you will have Miss Gabriella as a substitute teacher until Friday the 19th. A discrepancy was discovered in the Syllabus concerning the papers. We will iron that out when I get back. In the interim know that you do have a paper due on September 22nd.
Friday:
Today we reviewed the homework in the reading which covered some of the Enlightenment in France, Prussia, and Russia.
HW - Read: Zehnder, pg. 53-66. Complete QR 3-4 on pg 68.
Welcome to the new year. Syllabus coming soon! :-) Meanwhile, here is the assignment for the first two days:
Wednesday, Sept. 10: Read Zehnder, Light to the Nations, introduction (pgs. 1-18) and complete the Questions for Review at the end of the chapter/intro (5 of them).
Read: pgs. 21-34
Friday: Read Zehnder, pgs. 34-38 and pgs. 41-52. Complete the Questions for Review on pg. 39 and questions 1-2 on pg. 68.
Your summer reading (Gheon's Secret of St. John Vianney) will be incorporated into the course in November, so you're welcome to delay until it's closer to that time (e.g., read over fall break), as long as you're sure that you will have time to complete the book (130 pages).
