Please know that I will hijack discussion periodically to make sure that certain points are part of the discussion and understood by the class.
Try to participate in every discussion, but not so much that others have trouble participating. To assign a fair participation score, I will keep track of who's participating and how insightful the comments seem to be. Quality counts more than quantity. Take risks. It's okay to be "wrong."
You are welcome to bring beverages such as coffee to class. Food is okay if it's not messy or distracting.
Please help make class start and end on time, by coming on time or early. If you're leading discussion, you need to show up early enough to set up. During discussion, manage time actively.
If you would like to meet but can't attend office hours, please send me a private message on Piazza to set up a meeting. In your message, include your available times for the next several weekdays, to help in setting up a meeting.
When attending office hours or a scheduled meeting, knock or say hi to be sure I know you're there.
You must acknowledge the following sources: other people who provide nontrivial help, sources you consult to help write your critique, sources of any slide material you reproduce, and sources used for your project.
I am obligated by University Rules to report any suspected violation to the Committee on Academic Misconduct (COAM). COAM decides whether a violation has occurred and, if so, what the penalty will be, which can include a failing grade and suspension or dismissal from the University.
