Syllabus

This is a full-year class dealing with the lives and history of the Tudors. If you have any questions about any of the lessons or assignments, feel free to ask (I love talking about history, after all), either through the class email (hol.thetudors@gmail.com) or on HOL. I'm here to help, and I'd like everyone to enjoy the class.

Earning Points and Quills:

To pass the class, you MUST earn a total of 300 points from homework and/or extra credit for the entire year. In other words, you need 150 points for each term in order to earn a quill for either term. You should also at least attempt the midterm and final exam.

Assignments should be sent to the class email (hol.thetudors@gmail.com). Please put your HOL name and House at the top of your emails. I will post which homework assignments I've received in the class forum.

All assignments are due on the last day of their respective month, at 11:59 pm HOL time, except the projects, midterm, and final. If you need an extension, please let me know as soon as possible and we'll work something out.

If you are unable to complete assignments due to accessibility reasons, please contact me to discuss alternative options.
