Each of the Grading Instruments Carries Equal Weight

Your grade in the class will be an average of the eight grades.

You should send the critical reviews by e mail to:

rzieg97818@aol.com

or post them on a web page you create at one of the following
which provide free space (and directions to follow):

http://www.angelfire.com
Go to Angelfire

http://geocities.datacellar.net
Go to Geocities

http://www.tripod.com
Go to Tripod


(If you set up a web page, you will then e mail 
to me the URL of the web page you create. 
The angelfire site is the easiest to construct 
a page on, because of the method the service 
provides for doing that, but the other two provide 
far more space, although the space provided free 
by angelfire is more than adequate for what you 
will be doing in this class. The only requisite 
for setting up a web page is that you 'join' 
the service. There is no charge for doing that, 
but it does necessitate that you have an e mail
address, because they will e mail you a password/code 
which will allow you alone to access the page 
to alter it.Once you have established the site, 
it will remain yours. All you have to do is update
it every six months or so. After the class is concluded,
you may use it for whatever you wish, within the guidelines
of the service offering the space for your use.)

If you send the reviews by e mail, please enter the text 
of your reviews as the e mail message. 'Attaching' them
creates difficulties, because my carrier, AOL, presents
problems of encryption and decoding which I have not been
able to overcome. SEND THE REVIEWS AS THE E MAIL MESSAGE ONLY.

Any time you contact me by e mail before 7/7 or after 7/28, 
I will respond to your questions or queries within as short 
a time of my having received the message as is possible. 
Bear in mind that e mail sometimes relays very rapidly, 
but it may also take as much as a day or two to reach
its destination -- although that is not normal.

(It will not be possible to do this between those dates 
as I will be out of town for that period). 

You are encouraged to use this medium as much as possible 
or necessary to get help with your work.

Again, e mail me at 

rzieg97818@aol.com

(You may also reach me during those time periods by leaving 
a voice mail message at 1.810.775.3364.
The e mail method is preferrable because of the ease 
of contact and response,  and due to the cost compared 
to long distance tolls).
