      Preparation

       Be there!

      In general, start with the web page for the class and study that before starting on the assigned reading.

      Assigned Work Due

      This time: turn up.

      Next time bring a question on a piece of paper about the assigned reading.

      A sheet of paper with your name will count for 1 point only.

      Participation

      You will earn points for filling out a survey sheet and Pre-test below.
