Final Assignment DUE 13 Jan 2021

The scale is as follows:

**** - Excellent, pass

*** - Good, pass

** - Acceptable, pass

* - Unacceptable, fail.

The student is expected to come to every class fully prepared.  This includes having read the assigned material and bring copies of it to class.  The student must stay engaged (and awake) in discussion, during occasional lectures, in-class videos and break-outs groups (when applicable).  Note-taking is expected.  

I take class attendance very seriously.  Class is not only an opportunity to learn new things, but also: an opportunity to learn more about yourself and your classmates, an occasion for the professor to provide some clarification and insight, an experience in which you can improve your ability to express your views and the knowledge you have and the chance to learn from your peers, who may have thought about the same information in a slightly different manner than yourself.

All absences do affect the student’s participation grade as one cannot participate if one is not in class.  However, at the end of the semester, if the student has more than 3 absences, their final grade will be lowered an additional one number.  

***Note for if classes go online: If Charles University decides to cancel in-person classes, then we will continue the semester through ZOOM.  We will continue to meet at the scheduled class time online.  We will meet for 40 minutes, then take a 10 minute break and then again for 40 minutes.  Students are required to attend both 40 minute sessions each week.  Each week, the student will receive an email from the Professor with a link to the ZOOM meeting as well as a weekly handout to prepare for the class.  When logging onto a ZOOM session, the student must use their full name as it is displayed in the Charles University SIS system.  Internet issues will be dealt with on an individual basis.
