Grading:<\/strong> I will enter your Attendance and Participation grade into Blackboard and update your other grades by December 11, so by then you will know where you stand without the 40-point final exam grade.<\/p>\n

If at that point, you feel you might benefit from extra credit<\/strong>, here are some options you can do, between Dec 6 – 18. Each one worth up to 5 points, but extra credit is not guaranteed and cannot be used to replace missing coursework. <\/p>\n

I’ve been collecting and tagging things I find on Twitter with #CitizenNation<\/a>. Take a look at things I’ve tagged, and respond to all \/ any of them with a 2-3 page response paper connecting the news item to our course topics and\/or to your own course learning.<\/p>\n

Listen to a podcast about the migrant caravan (noting the date it was recorded) and write a 2-3 page report about the podcast’s coverage of this event and, if relevant, what’s happened since then.
