| Please explain why absences beyond the number allowed in the syllabus is not a reasonable accommodation. | There is significant interaction between the instructor and students during the class meeting (e.g., discussion, interactive experiences, problem solving). There is significant classroom interaction among students during the class session - it is a discussion-based seminar. A fundamental learning objective relies on active student participation during the class meeting - 40% of grade comes from participation. The student’s absence or variable attendance will constitute a significant loss of the educational experience for the student and/or classmates - much learning in this course happens in-class. |
