I just wanted to remind you that all students in a VCAP class are required to spend additional time out of class working on various assignments. There are several ways to meet the requirement of the out-of-the classroom time:
- Posting contributions to the class blog.
- Reading the anthology of stories and writing brief reviews and/or synopses of the stories read.
- Creating PowerPoint presentations on the "Mindset" chapters (for those who have not already done so).
- Writing (on a hard copy) contributions to class discussion (for those who are not comfortable with blogging).
- Adding to our knowledge of theories presented in our textbook or, even better, the additional list of theories that were distributed at the beginning of class.
If you have any questions, suggestions, or concerns, please let me know. Enjoy!

Professor Yablon,
ReplyDeleteLooks I'm going to be spending a lot of out of classroom time because of my financial and auto situations. I never knew growing up would be this hard. However, thats no excuse to not do the work which is why I've started working on the 2nd and 3rd essays. I hope you enjoyed reading my first essay as I have failed to receive a grade from that one. I do remember you saying that it takes a little while for you to grade all of the papers. I did have a question regarding the movie essay. What is the principal of the essay. Is there something that we are trying to prove? I also wanted to know if it were too late to sign up for the extra credit opportunity.
