This is a subjective evaluation of your contribution in class to unstructured discussion of the textbook, cases supplemental readings, your critical thinking questions (CTQ), and your current literature journal (CLJ) reports. Your grade will be determined based upon the following guidelines:
9-10 Asks good questions, makes valuable observations, and answers questions effectively on an ongoing basis.
8-9 A regular participant, but all questions, answers, or observations are not always effective, or not on an ongoing basis, or tends to discourage effectiveness.
7-8 Only participates infrequently, or questions/answers do not reflect adequate preparation, or late to class.
6 Very rare participation, or questions/answers reflect little or no preparation, or very late to class.
0 Displays no sign of life, or absent for entire class.
NOTE: Your semester participation average will be worth 20% of your course grade.
Important Note: Because this class is a bit large for a seminar, it may be necessary to adjust the traditional grading approach from time to time. A requirement to turn in class notes for certain classes is among the possibilities. Such an expectation will be announced at the beginning of such classes. The notes will be returned once reviewed for grading.
