You are expected to come to class every day prepared, with the required materials, and with your homework completed.  Your daily work grade will be determined by various activities and assignments, including but not limited to in-class writing assignments, peer review of drafts, group discussions, and presentations.  Daily work cannot be made up.  There will be a daily warm-up at the beginning of each class unless instructed otherwise.  You will turn in warm-up's in a Blackboard Discussion forum but I also recommend that you keep a copy.  Outside of the classroom there will be readings, reading responses, reflections, and “My Story” writings. Last, but not least, this section also consists of attendance, class participation, drafting, and peer review.
