成績評量方式補充說明   
1. Attendance is required. After the fourth absence, you will not have any grades for all the work in class. You will get whatever grade you have at that point for the course.
2. Attendance will be taken ten minutes after the bell rings. If you come later, you are absent. Do not come to give any excuse. Each hour (Two hours) of absence will result in a 0.5 (1)-point penalty of the participation grades. If you are ten minutes absent during class without an acceptable reason, you are counted as being absent.
3. This policy will be implemented from the first day of class. If you register after day one, you will be considered absence for any class you miss before you register. If you don’t show up on day one, you are absent for that day.
4. The three situations: 6 leaves / 1 unexcused absence and 3 leaves / 2 unexcused absences will be equal to losing the chance of the final exam.
5. If you do not contribute to the group work or are absent for the exam or the group presentation, you will be given a grade of zero.
Requirements:
6. You need to upload the assignment to the e-course by the required time. No late work.
7. Each person needs to present, answer or ask Q voluntarily for 5 times in order to get the points for the performance on assignments, discussion and reports. Those who attend certain activities related to English will be given extra points.
8. From the second week on, you will need to sit on a fixed place for the whole semester.
9. The make-up work for the worksheets will get 70% of the grades offered. Handouts fee: $10.
10. Everyone needs to use the textbook of the 2nd edition and no copied one can be used in class. If you use a copied one, you will not pass the class automatically.
11. Everyone needs a textbook for the course. If you forget to bring one, you will lose 0.5 total grade of the course each time.
11. There is a report section about comparing different types of news and reflection.
Find a news report on the newspaper, one on the TV film (features), one in the editorial and compare the various features of the three sources. Four members are chosen for a group work. You need to make a word file, a ppt file and report your findings. Each one needs to report a part of your final paper.
