Guidelines for Task Presentation

a. prepare a presentation of the syllabus you have been assigned (oral in front of your peers and a written report which you have to issue a copy to everyone in the class and a digital copy to the teacher).

b. you can use a PPT audio visual aid or any other mean to make your presentation more interesting.

c. divide the parts of the assigned syllabus proportionally among the members of the group so everyone is responsible for the whole or each individual part of the task.

d. proper attires is a requirement for the presentation of your task. The rest of the days you can wear regular clothing.

e. attendance is mandatory for all presentations. Your punctuality is part of your decorum.

f. if you miss your presentation, or miss a presentation, you must present valid proof to justify your absence.

g. others (pending)

Important Information. Please Read.

The end of week 14 - 10, and the following 21 - 25 will be highly irregular. There are two events playing a role in the development of our classtime: I have to attend a workshop, and the second we have elections in our university. the following days:

elecciones (posiblemente todo el dia, suspencion de clases a nivel de facultad) 9:00-12:30 y de 1:30-4:00 (cuando sea continua), septiembre: jueves 17, viernes 18, jueves 24, viernes 25;

capacitacion (por la mañana) 8:00-12:00, septiembre: jueves 16, viernes 17, jueves 23, viernes 25.


So, rule of thumb, wait for me 15 minutes in the classroom, if I do not show up during that time, you are excused until the next class.

Our group will only see interference on Thursday, September 17 if the morning meeting goes into the afternoon.
