3 Continued from Page 1 political culture of the state and the function of government Following an introduction to Texas political and civic culture, the course will focus on four major areas: (1) an introduction to state policymaking, constitutional development and federalism; (2) the structure and institutions of Texas government, budget policy and local government; (3) Texas electoral politics, with attention given to public opinion, the media and social media, religion and politics, voting, political parties, and interest groups; and (4) current major policy areas including health care, education, poverty and criminal justice. The analysis will include the textbooks as a basic topical guide, but it will also draw from other sources and from ideas and perspectives presented by contemporary analysts and scholars of Texas government and politics. This class is about good citizenship. How do I engage with democratic government at the state and local level in an informed and beneficial way?

4 Course Requirements The components of this course are described below and listed in the schedule. You will have the following types of assignments: -assigned chapters to read from your textbooks -class discussion topics -reading quizzes -policy/issue/research reports -notes, websites, and online videos to review All assignments will be posted in advance on Blackboard in the folder for the week. We will use Blackboard extensively. Please be sure your software, especially your web browser, is up-to-date. Also be sure you have an adequate Internet connection. You will need to be sure you can submit assignments as Microsoft Word documents, PDF files or in RTF (rich text format). Assignments submitted in any other format will not be accepted. It will be your responsibility to note all due dates and times. The course is designed to help you get your work completed and turned in on time. Late work will not be accepted, so be sure to structure your week to have adequate time for your work. Do not wait until the last minute and try to complete all of your work. At the beginning of each week, we will review the assignments for the week in class. Be sure you attend class and follow the directions. We will also confirm due dates and other important information to help you stay on track for the term. Participation (15%) Attendance is critical for this course, as the presentations and class discussions will offer some explanation of the assigned readings but will primarily focus on additional material that enhances the topics covered in the readings. Class material that is not covered in the textbook will be included on the exams. Students will be allowed 3 unexcused absences for the semester. After the third absence, 3 points will be deducted from the class participation grade for each unexcused absence (10 points per week of class missed). For an absence to be excused, you must provide an official notice (copy of an or letter) from a department of the University. If the absence is a medical or family emergency, please contact me as soon as you are able. Since you have 3 absences to use, minor illness will not be excused. If you have a prolonged illness or issue during the semester, please contact me. This requirement is meant to encourage class attendance and can affect the outcome of your grade. Please be advised that if you receive a failing Participation grade due to excessive absences, you automatically fail the course. Participation is also related to class decorum. Since we will be discussing many issues during the course of the semester, each student should show respect for the instructor and fellow students by addressing any issues or concerns in a polite and orderly manner. If a student is unable to do this, he or she will be asked to leave the classroom and will not receive credit for class participation on that day. Students will also be asked to leave class for incessant talking, texting, or working on other coursework during the class session and will be given an absence. Continued 4 4
5 Students are not permitted to leave class during the class session. If you need to leave early for any reason, please speak with me before class. If an emergency arises during class, please raise your hand and ask to be excused. Any student who leaves class during the session will be counted absent for the day and dropped one letter grade (10 pts) on the next exam. Quizzes (15%). Each student is required to take a reading quiz for each chapter assigned from the textbooks. Most of the quizzes will be taken in class using the Clickers. It is to your benefit to do the quizzes so that you are familiar with the content needed to answer the exam questions and for participation in class discussions. Examinations (30%). Four examinations will be given as scheduled below. If you will be absent the day of any exam, you must inform me in advance to be able to take a make-up. All make-up exams for unexcused absences will be essay and short answer. The final exam is not comprehensive. Policy/Research Reports (20%). We will give attention to current policy issues in Texas government and in comparison with policy in other states. Reports will be assigned and posted to Blackboard. You will be required to submit five, 600 word (approx. 2 pages double-spaced) reports over the course of the semester as scheduled below. Each report will be on Blackboard in the assignment folder for the week and should be submitted as a Turnitin assignment. Each report should include a short statement of the issue (1-2 paragraphs) followed by your views and/or dialog with the arguments for and against the issue. Each prompt offers questions, other resources, and links to related websites. You can use all of these and other related resources in preparing your report. Be sure to note the due dates, as late assignments will not be accepted. It is your responsibility to confirm that an assignment has been submitted. If you have technical issues, you have the option of turning in a hardcopy of the assignment at the beginning of the class session and sending a digital copy by . Current Issue Project (20%). Students will be asked to choose a current policy issue related to Texas state or local government. During the course of the semester, each student will submit different types of articles on the issue. Each assignment will be discussed in class so that you know what type of information to find. Before the conclusion of the semester, each student will submit a 4-5 page, doublespaced report that describes the issue, discusses the history of the issue, explains why and how government is addressing the issue, and concludes with at least two different qualified opinions on the issue. Before the report is due, a guide will be provided to assist you with the outline of your paper and formatting endnotes. Current Issue Project Group Work The goal of this project is to give you a basic methodology for analyzing and evaluating the information sources for any policy issue. With this approach and research model, you will be able to access the information you need to develop informed opinions on a wide range of issues that impact your life, community, occupation, etc. You will be assigned to a group at the beginning of the term, and the group will choose a topic. After each group member has found an article, the group will review all of the articles and select the article that best meets the assignment criteria. The articles selected by the group will be used for the current issue report. 5 5
