Your participation in these discussions will be a part (ten percent) of your grade in my class. In addition, we will have one writing homework assignment each week. In most cases, it will be a short (3-page) paper on a topic we are studying. You will be graded on these assignments. We will have four tests during the semester. Each one will be worth twenty percent of your final grade. There will be times when I will call on you during class. Please attempt to answer my inquiries.
