During the semester, I will offer a few extra credit opportunities. These can be used in one of
two ways:
- To 'excuse' one absence from the semester. Great if you have three absences
and stand to lose 75 points.
- To earn a few extra points to cover for missed day-to-day assignments
Please note, however, that the amount of time involved in extra credit assignments
usually out-paces the amount of time involved in doing the day-to-day assignments.
- Flashback:
Students may post makeup posts to
earn some points toward their final grade. See the Flashback page for more details.
- Game Studies Report:
Read one
article from the journal Game Studies and prepare a 5-10 minute
presentation on it. See the
assignment sheet for more details. Worth up to 20 points.
- Final Project Presentation:
You may prepare a
5-10 minute presentation of your final project to share with the class
on our last day. This presentation should be carefully prepared and should
include visuals or a handout for the class. You must notify Brendan on 2 May that
you plan to present your project on 14 May. Worth up to 20 points.
