Requirements:

For each book (or section of book) read, students write chapter titles, which summarize the major theme of each chapter. Chapter summaries are to be turned in each week. They account for 50% of the final grade.
2. A final test will be given on the sixth week. A review sheet will be given on the fourth week. The test will cover readings and class presentations. The test is worth 50% of the final grade.
