NOTE: Use of make-up Videos must be approved by the Instructor BEFORE utilized. No exceptions.
As stated in the syllabus, a reaction paper is required from each class session. If you miss a class and the absence is unexcused (e.g. you failed to give me prior notification or a realistic reason for the absence within 24-36 hours of the absence) there is no make-up, period.
No reaction paper will be accepted late or via E-mail. Again don't ask.
If the absence is excused you cannot write a reaction paper about a class you were not in but you can write a reaction paper based on viewing of a substitute movie/video of my selection. In return for an acceptable reaction paper to the make-up video you will receive 1/2 credit for the paper (i.e. 7.5 points).
Make up papers are due the same week normal reaction papers are due (see the syllabus) the only exception is if you had an excused absence the first week, you have until the 3rd week to do the make-up paper. You can only make up one (1) reaction paper without documented proof of absence, e.g. physician's note, etc.
The following are the only approved make-up substitute videos. They are available through your local video rental store or on-line rental service
