Seminar format

Students will be evaluated on their class participation, presentations, and their overall progress.

Students will be required to submit ungraded samples of their progress each week and at three points during the semester they will submit portions of their theses in order to receive feedback and a grade on their work. Two presentation sessions will be held in order to check writing progress and prepare students for defending their theses. These assessment points are mandatory. Students cannot pass this class without meeting these deadlines. The language of instruction for this class is English, therefore students are expected to use English during class discussions as well as with the instructor.
