20% Attendance and in-class performance (including evaluation of self-directed learning)
80% Writing task * 4
1. Attendance is mandatory. All absences must be communicated in advance and supported by a verifiable reason. While legitimate excuses will be accepted, each absence may still adversely affect students’ attendance record.
2. Students’ performance will be evaluated based on their participation and overall engagement in class. Absences may negatively impact the assessment of in-class performance.
3. All writing tasks must be completed during class sessions. These assignments are designed to reflect the content and objectives of the lectures and must be finished within the allotted time. Make-up opportunities for missed writing tasks will not be provided.
4. While specific requirements may vary, all writing tasks will be evaluated based on the organization of the writing, the development of ideas, the unity and coherence of the content, and the accuracy and appropriateness of language use.
