1. Assignment. Assignment for each meeting will be confirmed during the immediately
preceding meeting. If the class is unable to finish the assignment at the relevant meeting,
discussion of the previous assignment will be continued before discussion of the next
assignment.
3. Questions during Class Time. Students are encouraged to ask questions anytime. If the
question is, in the opinion of the professor, manifestly intended to disrupt the discussion
or avoid the conduct of recitation, the question will be disregarded.

not call anyone who is absent.

* The recitation grade includes participation at the colloquia and round-table discussions.
During the colloquia and round-table discussions, the professor shall choose some students to
discuss their reaction paper and exchange ideas with the guest speaker.
** Students will write 2 reaction papers on any 2 topics among the 4 topics (maximum of 3
pages; no footnotes; single space; short bond; Times New Roman 12). We suggest that students
1
limit their comments/reaction to 2 or 3 points so that they will have room to expound each point
extensively. The first paragraph should be a summary of the portions of the work or discussions
you wish to comment on and react to. After the summary, the students should frame the
discussion such that the professors will understand, at the outset, the content of the reaction.
Please email a Word version of your reaction paper on the deadline set out below to
mlenojo@alumni.ateneo.edu. Filename format should be: Surname_SessionNumber.docx or
doc. Example of filename format: Rizal_SixthSession.docx or Rizal_SixthSession.doc.
