AMH 2010 American History Part I (abbreviated – see Angel for complete syllabus)?Instructor?Dr. John PatonOffice?Hours?Based on student request.E-mail?paton.john@spcollege.eduLocation?OnlineRequired Text Of the People, Volume I to 1877, James Oakes, Oxford University Press, Copyright 2010, ISBN #978-0-19-537094-2 (v. 1). Blueprint for earning a good grade:Communicate with the class professor and other students. This is the key to success! Come to class. When in class, make an effort to participate in discussions and conversations. Students making the effort to be an active member of class will almost always be successful. When considering discussions or outside work (book review, reaction paper) please think critically! When writing papers, I strongly suggest that you use the writing center to improve your work.Course DescriptionThis class is an online class which strives to bring students to a better and deeper understanding of American History. It utilizes embedded videos and suggested websites to further clarify and illuminate the excitement of American History. We also are utilizing a new textbook which allows you as students to read the most up to date interpretations of American History.Course Links:This is the course syllabus addendum which is updated by SPC each semester.

Please contact me with any issues about this topic. Academic Integrity:All work is to be in your own words. Please respect the idea of Academic Integrity. If students cut and paste their work from other sources this is a form of plagiarism. In the first instance students will get a warning and a "0" on that assignment. If this happens again, students will be dropped from the class and their name will go before the Academic Integrity Committee. Students may quote work from other sources including their textbook but a reference and in text citation both in MLA or APA style must accompany those quotes.Disability Policy:See SPC SyllabusMiscellaneous: ................
