| + | Updates to syllabus, marking scheme, and course materials are now in progress. Last year was the first online-only delivery of the course and it actually went really well. But this year will be even better as we'll try a few things that work much better online than in the classroom. Drop me a line if you have any questions, or concerns, or want to share experiences with online classes that went beyond your expectations. | ||

If you fail to connect to the Zoom meeting at the scheduled time, this is equivalent to a missed midterm exam in terms of applicable Faculty policy: "if the reasons for missing your test are ''acceptable'' to the instructor, a make-up opportunity should be offered to the student where ''practicable''. '''"Acceptable"''' reasons will be considered if they are justified, if the consideration is "fair, equitable and reasonable", and if the reason is documented through one of the four types of "official" documentation: UofT Verification of Illness or Injury Form, Student Health or Disability Related Certificate, a College Registrar’s Letter, and an Accessibility Services Letter. Scope for a '''"practicable"''' make-up opportunity for the oral test will be extremely limited however. |
