Hi Class, I have received a number of emails from you; I will attempt to be brief and convey my thoughts clearly:

We have only two more formal class periods. The rest of the semester is “finals” and we don’t have a final exam in this class.

I am willing to make tomorrow’s class “last chance day for Unit 3.” Maybe your Presentation was not as comprehensive as you would have liked — and you thought of something you would like to add; maybe you did not complete both of the “Library Pairs” and you want the link again and more time to complete them; maybe you didn’t even Present at all. 

Let me know tomorrow, during class. I am receptive to work being made up on a case-by-case basis. There will be grading penalties for lateness if you have not presented until now, but late is way better than not at all.

Hi Class, nice presentation discussions today! Question: Do you want to request an extension on your Final Portfolio (which includes your Final Reflection)? If yes, then you must request that extension in writing. I will assume that, on good faith, you have read our SYLLABUS, specifically the parts about late work, my plagiarism policy, and my policy on the use of AI prior to requesting said extension via e-mail.

I will grant extensions on a case-by-case basis. And I will expect said requests to arrive via email prior to end-of-day May 9.

Thank you.

Hi Class, I made a video that pretty much says it all:

The current WEEKLY ASSIGNMENT FOLDER (link there<<) has the Final Reflection assignment and your current Homework Assignment, so please take a look.

Here are more Resources:

This is the Hero’s Journey video that I showed in class today.

Below are three links to issues I was discussing about work quality.

Capitalization

Quotation punctuation

Quotation, more issues (most importantly, using quotes within quotes)

I hope this is helpful, and that you are all on track. Thank you to Matthew for presenting today. Have a great week-end.
