Hi class,

This coming week we’ll be working on Module 11: https://openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu/pol-100-0508-fall-2025-introduction-to-american-government/module-11-the-court-system/

Please note that Module 11 will take 2 weeks to complete.

Hi class,

First of all, this coming week, we have no new module, you continue working on Module 9.

Second, I have finished grading your first exams. Couple of things to keep in mind.

1. If you wrote your email address on your exam paper, you should have received a link to your graded exam, whereby you can view your grade and my comments.
2. If you DID NOT receive such an email with a link to your graded exam, that means you forgot to write you email address on your exam paper, and thus I was unable to email you. If you want to see your graded exam, email me and let me know.
3. If you DO NOT see an exam grade on your Brightspace page for this class, that most likely means you submitted your exam in a format other than Microsoft Word (.DOCX). For example, if you submitted your exam as a PDF of any other document type, I will not read it, which means you didn’t get credit for your first exam. In this case, take a look at your exam paper and if you sent it to me in a format other than .DOC/.DOCX, resubmit it in the correct format, and send me an email that you have done so. Then, I’ll be able to grade your exam.
4. IMPORTANT: The First Exam can be rewritten for a higher grade. If you would like to rewrite your exam, please go ahead and do so. Upload it, and send me an email letting me know that you’ve rewritten your exam.
5. NOTE: Exam responses that contained 1-3 sentences lost credit. You are expected to write more than that on your exam. Each question should be in paragraph(s) form. Please ensure that you don’t submit any rewritten responses that contain 1-3 sentences…
6. If you have any questions about your exam, or if you don’t see a grade for your exam on your Brightspace class page, please let me know.

Hi class,

Each question must be answered in multiple paragraph form. If your answer is 2-3 sentence long, you are not writing enough. Write more.

Please don’t forget to write your name and email address on the actual exam paper. 

Your exam paper must be in Microsoft Word document format (DOC or DOCX):
