There are three World Studies classes. Each is taught by Mrs. Timmons and is blocked over two periods: 2nd/3rd, 4th/5th, and 7th/8th. Students must take the two periods back to back. Students receive credit for PAP English II and AP World History. They will earn one grade which will be recorded twice on their report cards and transcripts. This course is the GCISD gifted-talented program for sophomores. Look here for ongoing reports of what we are doing in class. Student Work Expectations: All students are expected to complete their own work. Plagiarism will result in a grade of zero (0) for the assignment. Plagiarism is defined as "the false assumption of authorship: the wrongful act of taking the product of another person’s mind, and presenting it as one’s own." (Alexander Lindey, Plagiarism and Originality [New York: Harper, 1952] 2) This includes all forms of copying, cutting/pasting, and cheating whether the material is taken in whole or in part from a book, the Internet, another student, or other source. In an instance where material has been obtained from another student, both parties will receive a grade of zero (0). After any infraction, a student-teacher-parent conference will be scheduled. Further disciplinary action may be warranted.
Welcome to World Studies!
