These assessments vary from pop-quizzes to class exercises.  They serve as a student’s class participation and class preparation grade.  In addition, these assessments are used to comprise a major portion of the final exam.  The two lowest assessment grades will be dropped; this will account for absentees, lack of preparation, illness, etc.  There are no make-ups or retakes given for missed or failed assessments.  Extra credit is not offered in this course; please take all of the assessments if possible.Writing Assignments The three writing assignments are individual papers written by each student on an assigned topic.  The assignments are worth 15% each.  The details of each assignment will be given approximately two weeks prior to the due date. The paper should have a cover page with your name, writing assignment number, and section.  Each writing assignment should be two pages and double spaced.  Each paper should also have a set of endnotes titled “End Notes” that cites references used for completing the assignment.  This means each writing assignment is 4 pages long: a cover page, two pages of writing, and one page of end notes. Use the textbook as an example of end notes. Please write in third person. Penalties will be assessed for spelling and grammatical errors.  There will be a 25 point penalty for all late papers.  The drop dead date for all late writing assignments is Friday, May 2nd, 2003.  The late penalty is assessed whether the paper is 10 minutes late or two months late.Final Exam  The final exam is cumulative.
