Late
Paper Policy: Deadlines are strict. Barring personal crisis, family
emergency, or severe illness (please let me know ahead of time), all late
papers will be subject to one half grade off per day late. Except for
abrupt crises, no requests for extensions will be heard within 48 hours
before the deadline (that includes for reasons of computer malfunctioning,
minor illnesses or being "behind").
- Leading
a Good Discussion
All members of the class must lead a week's discussions. I take this
requirement very seriously. Click here for details on what makes a good
discussion leader.
- Avoid
Plagiarism!
Plagiarism is a
big deal, yet you can be doing it without even knowing it. Click here
to learn more about what it is and to avoid it through proper citation
practices.
- Critically
Assessing Information on the Web
Remember
that materials on the web MUST be evaluated as critically as any other
texts we consider in this course. See this page at Northeastern University for brief guidelines
on thinking critically about the web.
- Citation
Practices for Anthropology Papers
Anthropologists
use a different style of citation than many other disciplines. You will
be expected to learn and use it in your assignments for this course.
