Course Requirements

Current assessed work can include quick checks, recorded pair or individual talk or any other task which you will be informed about in advance.

Timely submission of all the tasks is obligatory. Late submission (though within a week time) will be scored lower. Late work without a request and a reasonable explanation will not be scored. In ALL circumstances it is the student’s responsibility to inquire about missed work.

Class Attendance Policy:

Regular class attendance is expected as is preparation for in-class cases and activities. I reserve the right to subtract up to 30 % of a student’s final grade for engaging in what I believe is poor class attendance and preparation. I will, throughout the course, provide feedback to any student who I feel may be the object of this penalty so that appropriate behavioural changes can be made by that student to avoid the penalty.
