Class Discussion Rubric 
Class Discussion Rubric
Students are expected to complete the assigned reading and come to class fully prepared to discuss and critically analyze the reading material. Each class member is responsible for finding answers to questions that arise to enhance her/his own learning. Because of the format of this experiential learning opportunity, class discussion will be an even more critical component of this course.
