Policy and dates
- Policy on attendance   Students are required to
attend all lectures. The penalty for unexcused absences is:
-
2-3 absences: |
grade penalty |
4 absences: |
F on the course |
There will be unannounced quizzes. In addition to giving the student
the incentive to study on a continuous basis, they allow me to record
attendance. Missing a quiz, or failing to collect one, each counts as
an absence. The student is asked to bring to class a kit of coloured
pencils, which will be used in tests and quizzes.
