In order to provide time for this effort, the class will meet only once per week, the other class meeting time is reserved for study of the articles. During the actual class meeting, the material of the journal article will be illuminated through in-depth discussion. One student will provide a brief overview of the content at the beginning of each class. Grading: — Class attendance and contribution 20% — Quizzes on journal article content 25% — Presentation of article overview 25% — Term paper 30% Offices: 244 Russ Center, WSU campus; ext. 5070 504 East Bldg., Miami Valley Hospital; 208-2257 Office Hours: Fridays, 3:30 - 4:30 pm; for other times, make appointment by calling MVH office or have arrangements made through BIE office.
