Intermediate Greek 201 Fall Semester 2008 Last revised 8/18/08 |
Three types of weekly quizzes will occur during the semester:
voc = Vocabulary quiz covering the Basic Vocabulary for that lesson as well as review vocabulary from previous lessons.1Lesson number indicates the chapter from the grammar to be covered.
G>E = Grammar emphasis quiz including the translation of a Greek text based on the accumulative Basic Vocabulary into correct English.
E>G = Grammar emphasis quiz including the translation of an English language text into correct Koine Greek using the accumulative Basic Vocabulary list.
2The Written Exercise homework assignment to be graded in class on this day. Instructions: Begin working on the assignment with the beginning class study of that lesson. Bring completed homework assignment with you to class on this class period for the assignment to be graded in class.
3The sessions with Drills will focus on class activities designed to implement the grammar concepts being studied up to that point. Two class sessions are set aside for this, although more than two may take place if the grammar materials are convered in fewer class sessions that is designated for each lesson. The second of the drill sessions will be graded and will become the basis of the Class Recitation grade. See the Semester Grade section in the course Syllabus page for explanation of how this factors into the determination of the semester grade.
4For permission to take a Make-up Exam, see the guidelines in Request for Make-up Quiz or Exam. This form MUST be filled out and approved by the professor before a Make-up will be scheduled.
According to university policy, students are
expected to be present and sit for the final exam on the date scheduled
by the university. The professor has no responsibility for determining
the exam date; this is done strictly by the university administration.
My policy is to follow this guideline rigidly. This means: NO
FINAL EXAMS ARE GIVEN EARLY FOR ANY REASON! If the student can't
be present at the scheduled date, then a grade of Incomplete ("I") will
be given and the student can make up the work at the beginning of the following
semester, according to university guidelines. Any deviation from the regular
exam schedule requires specific approval by the university provost. The
student is required to complete a prescribed form that can be secured from
the provost's office. Expect approval only for illness, death of a family
member or some similar extreme emergency. Plane reservations prior to the
end of final exam week; an "early ride home" etc. will not receive approval
by the provost.
