During this semester I expect each student to be an active, vocal participant in class and offer valuable contributions to our discussions. Articulating your thoughts helps clarify your ideas. I encourage thinking out loud. Be supportive of your classmates and respectful of different points of view. On certain occasions I will be evaluating your oral communication skills with particular assignments, such as<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Oral reports by study groups and responses to discussion questions<\/li>\n
  2. Reading aloud of our class reading and sharing informal writing with the class<\/li>\n
  3. Short (4-8 min) oral presentations of research<\/li>\n
  4. Regular contributions to the seminar discussion, both in and outside of class<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    We will, as a group, establish the guidelines for what constitutes \u201cvaluable contributions\u201d to the discussion. The points you earn on each of these assignments will go toward your oral communication grade (15% of your final course grade). While you will have a chance to blog and tweet, much of this work happens IN CLASS, so any absence will affect your grade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
