The course will be held in a student-centered seminar format. This means that students will assume responsibility for presenting the reading materials and guiding class discussion. Each week, the student presenting for that day will begin the class with a presentation (requirements are discussed in detail below) focused on the scheduled reading materials. This is to provide the class with a thorough review of the text(s) and elucidation of the main points up for discussion. Once the presentation has concluded, members of the class will have the opportunity to respond to the presentation by asking follow-up questions, including touching on gaps that the presentation did not address or areas of confusion that require further clarification. The class will then use the remaining class time to discuss questions or issues prepared in advance by the presenter for that day. The total number of times a student will be asked to lead the class will depend on the number of students in the class. In principal, the more students there are taking the course the less often each student will have to present. The initial plan will be for each student to assume this responsibility three times during the course of the semester, but if the class only has two or three students, responsibilities will increase. Additional responsibilities may involve students developing at least ten questions or topics for class discussion on two to three occasions, in addition to the presentations; or each student crafting at least five questions or topics for class discussion for those occasions when no one is scheduled to present.

Participation 40% - Students are expected to regularly participate in and contribute to class discussions. For discussion to work, you must have read the assigned text with some care before coming to class. Be prepared with your own thoughts and reactions, however provisional. - Please note that no auditing is permitted and that research students are only allowed to take the course if they are willing to complete the course requirements. Presentations 60% - Presentations have no time limit. Instead, students are asked to guide the class through the readings for that week and to help steer the class discussion on the issues that each text raises. - The form the presentation takes is left to the student to determine. However, the ideal presentation should identify a point of entry into the text or texts, lay out and explore, through the close reading of passages, the key issues raised by the text(s), and elicit discussion about those issues. To that end, presenters are asked, in addition to the presentation proper, to also develop at least five questions or topics to discuss with the class. The questions can relate to areas or points of the text(s) that the presenter did not fully understand and would like to explore through discussion or related issues that may help further illuminate the readings. They may also include passages that the presenter would like to close read with the class. - Students should prepare a handout for their presentation. The handout is to help you organize your thoughts just as much as it is to help the class follow you in your presentation. - If you submit a handout to the instructor but are absent from the class you are scheduled to present in, you will receive no credit for the presentation.
