For Class #11, 11/24/08:

1. Rosters, etc.

• Calendar check: http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=df8n9qbt_234gfgkcjf5
• Graded movie papers on their way back to Victoria as of this afternoon. May be there tomorrow (?). If you want to know your grade sooner (out of 30 possible points), e-mail me.
• Here is the grading scheme:
• CHOP--
• Clarity of expression, 8 points;
• Homework on the topic, 8 points;
• Originality of your thinking, 8 points;
• Presentation (mechanics), 6 points.
• (When I went to reform school, that added to 30. If your paper has a LOT of my scribbling on it, it's probably the Presentation component that suffered the most.)
• Last-chance questions about book project. Have you sent me your choice of topic?
