Due to the course content, it is very important to understand concepts and reflect on them by active thinking and discussion. Therefore, pre-class readings of the related part of the textbook and if any other material given is essential. Also in-class participation is very important to make sense of the content taught. It is strongly expected to generate questioning, brainstorming and
discussion in class to learn from each other.
Students are expected to attend all sessions and be in class on time. When they cannot attend due to a sickness (which should require a report from a full facility hospital) or an excuse accepted my MEF regulations, they should inform the instructors by mail.
Academic dishonesty and plagiarism will be subject to the YÖK disciplinary regulation. |
