  9. A Few Miscellaneous Questions • Who grades me? • Your English teacher • What if my guests misbehave? • Your grade will be affected. After all, you invited them! • Do I really have to dress up? • Yes. You are graded on your professionalism. Part of that is your appearance.

  10. More Miscellaneous Questions • What if I get bored during someone else’s presentation? • Your grade will be affected. You will lose 1% from your own presentation every time you: • Fall asleep • Are late to class without a pass • Talk during someone’s presentation • Interrupt during question/answer/discussion • Use a phone

You will be admitted to class once the first presenter has finished • What if I don’t speak for 10 minutes? • You have not met the minimum requirements and will not pass your presentation. • You will have another shot.
