Evaluation of student performance will be based on weekly quizzes, three argumentative essays, and class participation.  The relative weights are as follows.   A grade scale is listed below and each component is described in more detail.

            69-67 D+, 66-60 D,  59 > F

            Quizzes

Quizzes will be multiple choice, T/F, and/or short answer.  They will be given every Friday.  You will be allowed to drop two quizzes.  No makeups will be given.

            Position Paper

            The position papers should be 3-4 page argumentative essays.  You will pick a “Policy Analysis and Debate” topic from the IPE text.  They can be found on pages 41, 75, 99, 131, 151, 199, 221, 239, 267, 286, 315, and 335.   Each of them gives a brief overview of an issue and question to be answered.  They also offer up different possible policy options and a few questions to help you analyze those options.   You must choose  a position and defend it.  I expect you to make use of and cite at least three sources other than your textbook.             

            Some general rules apply to the writing assignments.  First, all of these assignments should be typed, double-spaced, using standard font sizes and margins. Second, your grade will be based in part on whether or not you have expressed yourself clearly. Spelling, grammar, and organization matter. Third, if you use material from any source, you must clearly indicate your source, and if you directly quote any material, you must clearly indicate what has been quoted (along with indicating your source). If you quote material without clearly indicating so, you will receive a 0 for the assignment. If you have any questions about this, please discuss them with me. Finally, late assignments will not receive full credit. If you know that you are going to miss class on the day an assignment is due, please make some arrangement for getting the work to me before class.  Late work will be docked 10% a day.  

If you need help with writing, then please visit the Writing Lab.  The earlier you make contact with them the better. http://bellevuecollege(dot)edu/asc/writing/

            Engaged Attendance

Participation points will be based on random attendance checks. Students will also be expected to arrive on time each day.  Attendance will be called at the beginning of class.  I will select 11 days at random and grade your engaged attendance.  You must not only be physically present, but also mentally engaged. I will drop the lowest of the 11 and the remainder will equal 10% of your final grade.  Attendance and preparation matter to your grade!!!

            Instructor Expectations

                        I expect students to show up to class prepared, participate in discussion, and not     distract other students.  If you and your personal electronics become a distraction to other      students, then you will be dismissed for the day and warned.  If it is a recurrent problem,       then you will be referred to the Vice President of Student Services for removal from the       class and any disciplinary action that office deems appropriate.
