Grading Details
75% of the course grade will be based on a research paper. For law students, the expected length and complexity of the paper will meet the standard for satisfying the upper-level writing requirement. For other students, the expected length and complexity of the paper will be tailored to the expectations of their degree program.
25% of the course grade will be based on course participation. The course participation grade will be based principally on each student’s preparing and leading (or co-leading) class discussion with respect to one day’s worth of assigned reading.
Description
This course has been flagged as a distance education course. This means this class is one in which students are separated from the faculty member or each other (other than specially accommodated students) for more than one-third of the instruction and the instruction involves the use of technology to support regular and substantive interaction among students and between the students and the faculty member, either synchronously or asynchronously.
