Assessments of learning (more information about each assignment will be available on Canvas):
 |
Reflection papers (2 papers, total 30%): On 2 Fridays of your choosing, submit a 2-page reflection on that week’s readings and movie (if applicable) by 11:59 pm on those Fridays. Each reflection should be 2 pages, double spaced, submitted to Canvas and Turn-it-in. Exclude Weeks 1, 7, and 14. |
 |
Discussion questions (2 sets, total 15%): For two classes in different weeks (based on sign-ups), submit a set of 2 discussion questions for each class regarding readings/movie assigned for that class. These questions should be open-ended, and spur conversations about the relevant topic that day. A complex question can take on multiple parts as follow-ups; but that would only count as one question. Questions should be submitted to Canvas (Turn-it-in unnecessary) by 11:59 pm the night PRIOR to the relevant class. At least one set must be submitted prior to Reading Week. More details discussed in class. |
 |
Discussion responses (2 sets, total 15%): Submit 2 sets of responses to discussion questions posted onto Piazza. Each set should address 2 discussion questions from one specific class. Responses must be posted by 11:59 pm on the Friday of the weeks corresponding to your chosen classes. At least one set must be prior to Reading Week. Discussion questions and responses cannot overlap weeks. |
