Tips for success 1. Attend class. 2. Take accurate and complete notes on topics discussed in class. 3. Make sure you know someone who takes reliable notes as a backup in case you are unable to attend due to illness. 4. Read all assignments during the week for which they are assigned. 5. Take notes on the assigned readings and try to identify the significant points made in each reading. 6. Ask questions. If something discussed in class or in assigned readings doesn't make sense to you, my job is to help you understand it. If you're not satisfied with the answer you get in class, make an appointment to see me outside of class. 7. Get started early on your paper assignment. I pay very close attention to the quality of your writing as well as the content, and a rush job will get the grade it deserves. 8. If you are having a problem, make an appointment to discuss it with me. I can't help you unless you take the initiative. |
