Absence make-up assignment

This assignment is only required if you’ve missed more than 2 classes (regardless of the reason).

Within four weeks of your absence* visit the editable google spreadsheet and follow the examples (submitted by KW) adding 20** more false friends in the empty rows below. Do not delete or change the rows added by other students – make sure what you add is original*** – new content.

Feel free to keep your copy of the false friends added, the google spreadsheet does not need to be saved in any way – all additions and changes are automatically recorded.

 

Successful (I will need to review your submission) completion of this assignment is crucial to your end-of-term credit.

*or before Dec 20 for absences prior to Nov 30

**add 20 new false friends for every absence above the 2 allowed by the school rules.

***the 3 example false friends are taken from Słownik Angielsko-Polski Cambridge – your submissions must be original – that is – cannot repeat the submissions of other students, by all means feel free to use the full variety of false friends lists and dictionaries available.

To all students absent more than twice

 

 

Those of you who have missed more than two of our classes, please be advised that I am not entitled to give you the credit/zaliczenie at the end of semester.

If possible, please bring me a copy of a legal excuse (doctors’ etc) that you will be able to leave on file. Regardless of the reason for your absence make sure you contact me (e-mail) about the extra requirements for your credit.

Writing is a process

Just a bit of trivia this time.

Please take a look at the trend of visits to this website – especially as it peaks on Friday just before the start of session 4 on Nov 13-14. Your mileage may vary but please make sure you give yourself ample time to think about, draft, write, edit and review your paper before you submit it.

Cheers!
