Final Words
GRADING:
20% Section
20% Response papers
25% Midterm
35% Final Exam
Response Papers. On most weeks, you will be required to hand in a response paper,
between 1 and 3 pages long. You will receive the question/topic each Wednesday by
5pm. Send in your response, pasted in the email, to your TF by 9pm on Sunday. The
response papers are graded pass/failif you hand it in, you pass.
Peer Coaching Groups. Every student will be a member of a 3-4 student coaching group
that will meet weekly for approximately 90 minutes. The meeting can take place over a
meal in one of the dining halls, though students should try to find a relatively quiet spot
(i.e. Sunday brunch may not be the best time...)
Sections. Sections form an integral part of the class. Beyond the opportunity to better
understand ideas from lectures/readings, sections will include exercises that apply the key
concepts from the course. Because sections are being developed as groups, there will be
no switching sections or attending sections other than your own once the semester and
sections are underway.
All required readings will be available on the course website.
