Schedule

The schedule is intended to help you plan and organize your work, and prepare properly for class. It outlines, week by week:

  • what work you should prepare ahead, for the next class
  • what work will be covered in each class
  • any other homework to do that week: two compositions, each of around 120 words, over the course of the term (topics will be provided at least one week in advance)
  • in-class assignments: quizzes, chapter tests, the midterm examination

The schedule will remain here all term and can be downloaded and printed out at any time:
