 Grading Policies

Overview:  Your grade in this class will be determined by your understanding of the reading, your formal writing, and your class participation in the Discussion List.  For your own enrichment, you might want to consider that setting aside time for careful reading of the texts and participation in the Discussion List are critical to your learning and success in the class! 

You will be graded on:

1.  Weekly responses to the Reading and Discussion with your colleagues.  (At least once a week on time - and you need to read the other posts, as well.) 

Please note:  You cannot pass the class unless you post ON TIME each and every week of the class.  If you need to back-post because of illness or emergency, please e-mail me at the first opportunity for permission to back-post.
