Teaching Methods and Recommendations
The course is interactive. Lectures combine a presentation, discussion of reading for the week
(often the homework), viewing of a video and discussion. Students should take notes, both on lectures
and on the reading, and presentations, with the intention of addressing the key themes of the course.
The readings require intensive examination of a broad variety of issues and modes of thought.
Students are encouraged to express diverse perspectives. You are likely to encounter strong opinions
and it is inevitable that at least some of these opinions will make you or your colleagues
uncomfortable. You will be expected to strike a healthy balance between arguing your own position on
these issues, listening to others, and helping the class as a collectivity to explore how the authors that
you read defend their approaches. Students and the instructors should interact with each other in a

mutually respectful manner. They should articulate their ideas, concerns, arguments, critical questions
and responses without alienating, marginalizing, or humiliating anyone. (For example, please avoid
disrespectful ad hominem arguments, slanderous statements, hurtful stereotyping, or intentionally
offensive non-verbal gesturing). I am not requiring you to be “PC” (politically correct), but rather
“BC” (basically civil).

The rule of forming cumulative grade
Оcurrent for 1st module = n1·Оessay;
Оcumulative for 1st module= k1* Оcurrent for 1st module + k2* Оwork in class for 1st module + k3*
Оindependent students’ work for 1st module
Оintermediate for 1st module = m1·О cumulative for 1st module + m2·Оintermediate test for 1st module
Оcurrent for 2nd module = n1·Оhome work;
Оcumulative for 2nd module= k1* Оcurrent for 2nd module + k2* Оwork in class for 2nd module + k3*
Оindependent students’ work for 2nd module
Оcumulative final= (Оintermediate for 1st module+ Оcumulative for 2nd module): 2
Оfinal = k1·Оcumulative final + k2·Оfinal test

Equipment
