Learning is an active process. To get the most out
of your class experience you will need to participate in our various in-class
activities and discussions. In this class there will be 20 days of instruction
in which to earn your participation points. Participation points will be
assigned 2 per designated class day, up to 40
points.
These points will be assessed based on the
description you provide of your class participation in the personal Participation Journal Blog and from my observations. After each designated class you
will briefly answer the following questions in your online journal:
·
Today in class I learned…
·
I earned my participation points today
by…
These journal posts will also be worth 2 points per
designated class day, up to 40 points.
So, as you see I value classroom participation! This
is worth up to 80 total points! I
reserve the right to deduct participation points for students who are
chronically late to class.
Today we did another ice breaker activity, talked about the syllabus and the FYS course in general and my expectations for your participation in the class. What did you learn and how did you participate?
