Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Midterm Exam: This course will have a midterm exam. Exam will be closed-book covering concepts, principles, issues, and theoretical and practical approaches discussed in the class. Each will be comprehensive; i.e., cover all materials (class discussions, activities, required readings) assigned through the last class day prior to the exam day. No make up exams will be granted unless you have a valid excuse accompanied by appropriate written documentation for missing the exam. The only acceptable form of documentation for an illness will be a written doctor's note. Failure to justify a missed exam will result in a grade of zero.Seminar Paper: You are expected to write a paper between 10-15 pages examining a related research topic. Your paper will be evaluated on cohesiveness, clarity, rational lines of argument, evenhandedness (both sides of issue) and appropriate use of the English language.
