Grades for Forum 1: Schaivo Case

Here's a link to your grades from your first forum. You'll have to look up your grade via your student ID number. The second column is your grade on your post (your original answer to the question); the third and fourth columns are your grades on your responses to colleagues. You could earn 100 points for your post, and 50 points for each response. If your answer was extraordinarily substantive and really helped forward the conversation, I gave you some extra credit. Contact me if you posted and you don't see a grade - several of you didn't put your names on your post, so I couldn't give you credit.

See you Thursday!

Grades for First Homework

Here's a link to the pdf of your grades for the first homework.

The first column is your student ID number; you'll have to look up your grade by student ID. The next column is your percentage grade, and the final column is the points you earned, out of 150. If you got *over* 150, it's because you earned extra on the assignment for an especially good post.

Two of you posted under screen names that I couldn't identify, without telling me your real names, so there are two grades that still need to be attached to people. If you forgot to put your name on your homework, tell me what your screen name was so I can give you credit for your work.

If I missed a post, let me know what *day* and *time* you posted so that I can find it.

Don't forget to read Euthyphro for Tuesday - have a great weekend, and I'll see you then!

Forum on Schaivo Case

For the forum, you can concentrate on

  • the broad question of what should have been done in this case (continue to keep T.S. alive with the feeding tube, or remove the feeding tube), OR,
  • the narrower question of what constitutes showing respect for life in this case.

Please post your original response by this Friday at midnight, and then respond to two of your colleagues by Tuesday at 8 a.m.

Here's a link to the article I was reading from with the outline of the case.
