Assessment and permitted materials
We will be reading the text together in class every week, so students are expected to prepare their transliteration, translation, and analysis at home so as to participate actively during class time. The class meetings will take place in BigBlueButton/Zoom, which will be accessible via the course page on Moodle.There will be a midterm assessment covering what we have done in class by that point, and this will be held on Moodle.Students will also be expected to give a short presentation on a relevant topic, which either the student will choose in consultation with the instructor or will select from a list of suggestions that the instructor provides.
