Document Summary

This is a seminar, not a lecture-based course. All readings need to be done before sessions. All students are required to prepare 2 comments and two discussion questions each week. Either on one reading, or (preferably) patterns or arguments across multiple readings. These reactions should be about 150 words long. Self-posted on mycourses (discussions > reactions > reactions week x) by 6 pm. Not graded: just regular posting gets you the full 10: moderation: 10% Each weekly session will have 4 student discussion leaders or moderators. Just raise questions, moderate arguments, facilitate: discussions: 10, reactions: 10% the discussion. You"re allowed to use posted reactions as bases. If enrolment drops, could rise to 3 or 4 sessions. If 3 sessions: 3 bonus % points added to final semester grade. If too many volunteers, i"ll randomize the volunteers. What you get out of it is up to you. You can coordinate with other moderators beforehand (i"ve set up groups on mycourses)
