By providing your signature you are attesting that I was in class and fully engaged in the discussions and class material as outlined in the syllabus (see below). You are also attesting that my attendance and presence was evident and brought value to the class discussion. Also, that I showed the utmost respect for the class and all within it (peers and professor).

The terms that discuss attendance and participation within the Syllabus for PPS are as follows:

According to the syllabus under roles and responsibilities section 2:

"The course depends upon active class participation and demonstration of respect for others. Students are expected to be on time for each class as a tardy arrival disrupts the learning environment for classmates. A timely arrival shows respect not only for fellow students but for the various guest speakers sharing their expertise with the class."

Also, in the syllabus under Attendance and Participation:

"This course relies heavily upon the ongoing experience of class members with one another. Therefore, every effort should be made to attend and actively participate in all class meetings. Students will meet regularly in small groups for discussions and for presentation. Your participation grade will be based both on attendance and work production (i.e. the quality of work your group completes during the semester). You will run the risk of dropping a grade if you do not participate in class/group discussions."

Please sign this petition if you felt that I adhered by all the terms listed above.
