Grade determinationExams Midterm 30% Final 40% Research paper 20% Class Participation 10% Exam gradesExams will be all essays. The essays will be graded on clarity of expression, insight, organization, and coverage of the question. Class rulesAnticipated absences should be discussed with the instructor. The midterm exam is in-class. The final is take-home. The final will pertain mainly to the second half of the class, but may draw inspiration from the first half as well. If you use sources for the answers to the take-home exam, you should give these sources as citations in the body of the paper and references at the end of the paper. Classmates are inappropriate sources. ReadingReading should be completed by the date listed on the Syllabus. Question and answerYou will be expected to submit an abstract of your paper for everyone in the class by April 2nd. You should also submit two questions, one for two separate abstracts, to be asked and answered in class (by the author of the abstract). This means each student will be the author of one abstract and two questions and the responder to one or more questions. Questions submitted by April 9th. The instructor will serve as moderator of the question and answer session. Please do not read anything in to one student getting more discussion time than another. We will have authors respond to questions beginning on April 16th.
