Our first daily quiz includes questions about keeping score (which we'll do every day to track and inspire participation). Quiz questions are eligible for inclusion on the exams. Your minimal "learning outcome" should be to learn the answers to these questions. Our broader goal, of course, is to understand more about happiness and how it relates to other values, why and how to get and keep it, etc.
1. Name two of the ways you can earn a base in our class. (See "course requirements" & other info in the sidebar & on the syllabus)
2. How many bases must you earn each class, to "circle the diamond" and claim your daily participation run on the scorecard?
3. How do you earn your first base in each class?
4. Can you earn bases from the daily quiz if you're not present?
5. How can you earn bases on days when you're not present?
6. Suppose you came to class one day, turned on the computer/projector and opened the CoPhi site,and had posted a comment, a discussion question, an alternate quiz question, AND a link to a relevant YouTube video before class. Did you earn your daily participation run?
7. Did you have any "extra bases" in the scenario posed in the previous question?
8. How can you indicate extra bases on the scorecard?
9. What are Dr. Oliver's office hours? Where is his office? What is his email address?
A possible discussion question could be, "Do you feel that you have to work hard and be miserable now in order to be happy later?"
