Divided in Groups
This class emphasizes on paying attention greatly.  It is essential that you get in a group or pair up with a friend next to you.  Please wisely use this time to practice controlled writing paradigms that will be given or use the textbook for modeled English sentences. You can also create a few sentences and check with me for correct grammar and usage.  Please do not use this time to do other homework or chat in Chinese.  I will be walking around to make sure you are on task.  Participation points will be taken away if you are not on task.
其他需求
You are expected to attend every class on time.  Ten minutes after the bell rings you will be counted late, which will result in a deduction of 1/36(18 weeks x 2 hours per week) x 30/100 against your grade.  Officially recorded as “Late/Tardy” means that you are not in your assigned seat listening attentively exactly ten minutes after the class starts.
上課鐘響後10分鐘未到教室就算遲到，會扣1/36×30%(36此數字的來源是本學期共有18週，且一天有2個小時；30%是因出席率佔總成績之30%)。遲到的定義是：鐘響後十分鐘未坐在指定的位子專心聽課屬之。

2. If you were late (without an excused note) for more than 20 minutes there will be a deduction of 2/36 x 30% (or 1/18 x 30%) against your course grade.  

假若你遲到超過20分鐘並且沒有合理的請假單，表示你無故缺課一天，你的學期成績將少掉2/36×30%。

3.  Four absences will result in failing and a compulsory withdrawal from the class.  You will not be permitted to take the final examination.  
四次的無故缺課就會被扣考期末考試。

4. Two unexcused absences will also result in failing the course which will also result in compulsory withdrawal from the class.  For an “excused” absence you must inform me prior to the missing of the class.  You may do so by:  writing a note and putting it in my box, or by having one of your classmates tell me at the start of the class.  
有二次的無缺課也會被扣考期末考試，請預先請假。

5. All assignments should be done and turned in on time to receive full credit.  “On time” means it must be given to me during class on the day the assignment is due.  No late assignment is permitted.
