PHIL 121: Methods of Reasoning Fall 2016 Course Schedule

Transcription

1 There are very few fixed "due dates" in this course (except for when the Concept Checks are due see the below for due dates on Concept Checks), because this course is designed to let you go at your own pace, and to repeat your work as often as necessary until you achieve mastery of each learning objective. However, if you don't follow something like the schedule below it will be very hard for you to achieve a good grade in the course, so please use this schedule as a guideline for where you should be in the course on a particular date in order to achieve your goals for the course.
