Contract Between The Faculty And Student

The use of the world wide web changes how faculty and students interact.  Obviously, based on my use of the web to support traditional faculty-student support services and teaching, I feel that the web can improve the thoroughness of teacher-student interactions.

Despite these improvements, it is imperative that some aspects of the traditional approach to teaching need to be retained.  One such aspect is the use of the course outline as a contract between the lecturer and student for the content of the course, the format of the lectures, the assignments due, the number of exams, and a summary of all components of student assessment for grading purposes.

To fulfill this important contractual arrangement between us, I need you to,

read this document,
print it,
initialize all components in the squared parentheses provided,
sign the form, and
then submit the form to me to place on file.

This will be my documentation that you are aware of all matters that pertain to this course, and most importantly, that you understand the need to study, and complete and submit assignments on the dates specified.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a student in PEP:528, I understand the following characteristics and requirements of this course;

[  ] I need to print and sign this contract, and then submit it to the lecturer.

[  ] I need to read the assigned readings, which includes book chapters, research articles, and internet resources.

[  ] I need to bring past handouts to each class.

[  ] For classes that have Powerpoint lectures, I need to print the slide summaries and bring them to each class to use them as a note pad.

[  ] I need to complete the assignment project.  These projects need to be submitted no later than the Monday of the final week of class.

[  ] I need to be involved in class discussions and participate in the Debate on Central vs. Peripheral Fatigue.
