Special Spring Session

If you liked this course, please recommend it! I'm teaching it for the upcoming Special Spring Session from May 20th through June 26th. Here's the relevant information:

  • Subject and Catalog No.: AAS 345 OL
  • Term: Spring Semester 2008
  • Session: Special Spring Session
  • Class #: 18690, Special Spring Session
  • Dates: May 20th - June 26th, 2008
  • GE Course: Fulfills F.3, Comparative Cultural Studies

For more information about the new Spring Special Session or any questions about enrollment, please contanct the College of Extended Learning, Matador Bookstore Complex, Room 100, 818-677-2504.

I usually don't have any problem filling up the course but this time around, wow, I need as much help as I can get. It may seem strange but you actually need to chose Spring Semester 2008 in SOLAR and then chose Special Spring Session. Most students don't know about this new "spring special session" and there was a problem with SOLAR where students couldn't register even if they wanted to, up until about 2-3 weeks ago, so if you know of ANYONE who might be interested or need this course, please pass this information along to them. Much thanks, Prof. Ropp Laughing

 
Extra Credit

I totally forgot to move this over from the old website but basically, here's my extra credit policy. Keep in mind that extra credit is not a safety net for slackers. It can however help if you did poorly on an assignment or two or if you are concerned about a borderline overall grade.

There are three ways to earn extra credit, 1). Read and write a 300-500 word review of a book, article, documentary or movie related to the class, 2). Attend an Asian American related event and write a short (300-500 words) report, or 3). Volunteer (at least five hours) at an event or organization that works with directly with Asian Americans or in an area of social and racial justice. Each of these is worth 2.5 points and a maximum of 5 points can be earned.

In your write up, which you can post on your blog, should answer three questions: 1) what was the event, book, etc. about? 2) what did you learn, and 3) what is the connection to the class. Send me an email to alert me that you've posted it on your blog.
