Welcome to my web pages
The Subjective Grades spreadsheet is posted here.
This on-line area will give you all the information I usually provide in paper form to my classes. You can check here each week to find your assignments for that week. These pages provide an opportunity for you to contact me via e-mail with any questions you have. You might want to create a Bookmark for this page to allow you to skip my home page and jump right to your class pages.
English 100 is designed for all students. This course will require that students read many essays outside of class; react to those essays by taking notes; teach (provide study questions on) some essays to a small group; write assigned papers; evaluate the essays of other students in class; rewrite, edit, and polish their own papers, and read critical articles and utilize the material in a researched paper. Read my rationale on the way this class will run and why, on the purpose for the various assignments, and on what I want students to get out of taking this course. Carefully read the requirements for this course and ask questions if you do not understand all the work you will have to do to pass the course. The syllabus will give you the week by week reading requirements. You can see the separate assignments. I have included the reading, writing, and researching assignments and the due dates for both rough and final drafts. If you have questions to ask me, you might check the FAQ (frequently asked questions) page first, but if you don’t see your question and the answer there, please e-mail me your question. Please allow about a week for my response either personally or posted to the FAQ page.
You might want to read some Letters from other students who have taken my class; they provide good advice for incoming students.
You can check out your Subjective grade points here; this will change each week.
