Class attendance & participation (Weeks 1-5)...............10 points (2 points per week)
Class Attendance and Participation: Teaching and learning require engaged and reflective participants. It is essential that you complete readings before class and come prepared to engage in discussion. You should demonstrate understanding and familiarity with course readings during class meetings by contributing to class discussions and activities. Presentations, small group activities, and discussions will provide you with information not found in the readings. Therefore, it is critical that you attend each class meeting and stay for its entirety.
I will evaluate evidence of engagement and reflection during class based on the following criteria:
Quality Participation (2 points)
Unacceptable Participation (0 points)
Learning Standard 4: Demonstrate a work ethic worthy of a noble profession.
