Other
- Students must participate in the discussion in some way in every class. Ask a question, have the presenter clarify a point, share your thoughts or experiences, be critical or supportive of the data…but do speak up. This is essential for your grade but also makes the class dynamic and interesting. Not participating in the discussion is the same as not coming to class at all.
- Excused absences must be cleared with the Course Director beforehand
- If you cannot present on the date assigned, find someone to switch with and then contact the Course Director
