大綱 (可見課程表) 指定閱讀完成的日期，讓你恰當且平均地在本學期中完成閱讀 (換句話說，如果一本書要上4堂課，你每一堂課至少要閱讀全書的1/4)。在課堂上，各部分內容進行的快慢則不同。

學生作業

1. 每上完五本小說，會有一份帶回家的論文考試 (含1-2個問題)
   
   
2. 約有1-2次的口頭報告，一次十分鐘。

指導標準

1. 無原因的缺席不可超過2次，否則成績以不及格計算。
   • 若因生病、離校或其他合理的原因缺席，請以email 告知。
   • 若時常遲到或未帶教科書，視為無故缺席。
     
     
2. 我會斟酌決定相關閱讀書籍的臨時抽考。

The schedule (see calendar) shows the reading you should have done by a given day: it's designed to spread your reading fairly evenly across the semester (e.g., if four class sessions are devoted to a novel, you should read at least a quarter of the novel for each of those sessions). In class, however, I'll go slower over some parts, faster over others.

Student Work

1. A take-home essay exam (1 or 2 questions) after each of the first five novels.
   
   
2. One or two oral reports, approx. 10 minutes each.

Guidelines

1. No more than two unexcused absences. Beyond that, you will fail the course.
   • If you are sick or have to be away for another legitimate reason, e-mail me.
   • I may charge you an unexcused absence if you frequently arrive late or without your book.
     
     
2. Unannounced quizzes on readings at my discretion.
