"Classroom" Participation
Active participation is essential for your own learning outcomes and for the course as a whole. Your participation mark is a significant component of the final mark.
- 20% of your participation mark is given if you show up for the first class. This is silly, but I do need everyone in the room to be able to organize this course.
- For the remaining 80% I will evaluate a mix of potential contributions to the class
- contribution to quiz questions.
- regular attendance in class-sessions;
- substantial contribution to discussions;
- active participation on the course mailing list[1]. Such participation can include
- questions about the material;
- helpful answers and comments;
- hints and pointers to interesting and useful resources or ongoing discussions.
Note that the participation mark is not calculated from a formula, but is a holistic appraisal aimed to integrate over many different aspects in a non-artifical manner. If you are truly active in the course, I will know and you will do well.
Notes
- ↑ You can find more hints on the effective use of mailing lists in the Netiquette page.
