All UWP Classes, Reports of Learning (ROL):

Please read Interactive Discourse

• Criminology Fall 2000 Report of Learning Page

• Corrections Fall 2000 Report of Learning Page

• Law & Social Change Fall 2000 Report of Learning Page

  
  
• Keep in mind:
  ** the 5Cs: competency, consistency, cooperation, communication, and creativity.
  ** Bloom and Krathwohl's Taxonomy of Learning: latent learning, recognition, recall, application, analysis, evaluation, and synthesis.
  
  

• Reports of Learning (ROL) must be interactive and interdependent. You are responsible for telling me what you have accomplished, verifying it with your journal, and then emailing me a brief ROL. A ROL must be interactive to be effective. By writing your own ROL and negotiating it with me, means that you must assume responsibility for your learning by giving me detailed evidence of your learning.

The preparations serve to give you the background you need for meaningful participation in the public discourse in the classroom and on the Academic Discourse Forum threads.

The UWP "Birdie" Calendar

First Place to Check for What's Going On in Class Today

Readings essential to coherent participation in class discussions, journals, written work are on the "Birdie" Calendar. We have tried to provide enough choice that you may select readings that interest you. We will not all read the same material. Therefore, be prepared in class to summarize briefly what you have read, in case others have not read that material, and be sure to specifically identify the readings in your written work. Be prepared to give either the page numbers of a text, or the URL of a site where we can find the material on which you base your comments.
