Created largely by my students the first two days of class:
Class Rules for
English 100A, Fall 2016
Be respectful:
Don’t talk over each other –
you will all get a chance to speak
Listen to each other’s thoughts
and ideas. Respect opinions.
Respect each other’s property
Be prepared:
Come to class on time – being
late can disrupt others
Be ready to participate
Ask questions! No question is too
big or too small
Be open-minded! There will be a
lot of opinions in this class, and while you don’t have to agree
with all of them, you might learn something new.
Be organized – bring your
materials
General guidelines:
No cheating. If you use someone
else’s words (which you will!), give credit where credit is due.
NO CELL PHONES, unless we are
using them for a class project.
Food and beverages are fine in
class, as long as you clean up after yourself.
And my addendum: yes, you can
swear in class to make a point. This isn’t high school. However,
swearing just to swear is not okay, and I would really recommend
you refrain from swearing in your essays, because Turnitin doesn’t
like it.
