I.
Your final grade will be determined by the following:
·
Attendance/participation/presentation/quizzes: 20%
Part of
the attendance/participation grade includes either an oral in-class
presentation, or, for those who didn't make an oral presentation, a one-page
precis of an article from the class reading list. If you didn't make an oral
presentation, be sure to turn in a one page precis.
·
Midterm: 15%
·
Eight page essay: 25%
·
Three page typed report on a gender/sexuality studies lecture (or a
film, if you cannot make an event) that you attend outside of class: 15%
·
Final exam: 25%
II. Rewriting one part of the midterm
If you would like to rewrite
Part III or Part II of the midterm (you can only rewrite one part), you can turn
the rewrite -- type written -- in with your final take - home exam. For your
grade on this part of the midterm to improve, your answer must be markedly
improved: it must refers to the articles we've studied in class, the different
perspectives offered by the authors; and concrete examples studied in class.
