Participation for the 4th Quarter

      General Procedures: I am well prepared for class everyday. I never forget to bring my notebook, reading material, or class reading. I never forgot to bring my free reading book when we had the chance to read in class. As for waiting to be dismissed, I don't remember being too anxious to leave class early. Going to use the restroom was never a top priority during class time, and I don't think that there was one time that I left class to do so. I don't like missing important announcements in class. I check my email daily, and communicate and respond as quickly as I can. I tried to make sure that I turned in all of my assignments in the beginning of class. And I consider my attitude to be cooperative and helpful. I try to have a good attitude in class all the time.

      Lecture, announcements, whole class discussion: I listen very closely to everything that you (Dr. D) says. I take helpful notes and try and ask relevant questions that will benefit my classmates. My comments are also relevant to the discussion and appropriate. I listen to my peers' questions and listen to the answer because it will benefit me. For the most part, I do not engage in side conversations. I do all I can to pay attention and listen in class.

      Individual and Group Work: I focus on the task at hand, and do the work that is put forth. The only trouble that I have is that my group members usually are not focused on the task and it is hard to keep them on the task. I do not distract others and I do the most that I can to have relevant conversations. I follow the instructions and do my absolute best.

      Growth: I think that our whole class has come a long way this year. We all had a rough start, but we got through it. I know that I (and the rest of the class) have done better in the second half of the year. I think that I have gotten more comfortable and therefore participated more and more as the year went on.

reading for this week:

45 minutes macbeth
100+ minutes of The absolutely true diary of a part-time indian
