Text: The Norton Anthology of World Masterpieces,7th ed., vol. 1
As part of my effort to make sure that our textbook needs are met, the text for this course is available only at: Pennsylvania Book Center.
Grades: Your final grade will be based on: class participation, two short papers (Paper 1 and Paper 2), a midterm and a final exam(20% each). Class participation involves regular attendance, taking part in class discussion and performance on any quizzes given at the discretion of the instructor to allow you to demonstrate your basic comprehension of the reading material.
Please note: This method of calculating the final grade applies only to students who satisfactorily complete the general course requirements, especially those about attendance and class participation. Students who do not meet the general requirements may have their grades determined at the discretion of the instructor.
