Homework
Homework is generally assigned every Wednesday and generally should be electronically
submitted by midnight the following Sunday evening unless otherwise indicated. Exact due
dates will be on the individual assignments given out in class. Late assignments are accepted,
but will be given a grade reduction.
Audio Homework Assignments
For certain homework assignments, you will be asked to submit a recorded speaking
sample. The easiest way to do this is to call a Google Voice number.
Sabina: (347) 635-5964
Melissa: (347) 526-3635
1. Call the Google Voice number for your professor
2. Wait for the tone
3. Say your name
4. Record your response
Please only leave one recording.
Alternatively, you may also create an audio file (like mp3 or wav) and email it to your
teacher. If you choose this option, please send one recording of one continuous stream of
speechdont use editing software or cut and paste parts from various parts to construct a
whole.
Absences
Regular attendance and active class participation is expected, and more than three absences
could result in a grade reduction. Sickness, family emergencies, and other life events, however,
sometimes prevent busy adults from attending class. In the event of an absence, you are still
responsible for getting notes and assignments from a classmate or the teacher and submitting
all homework on time. Please talk to your instructor if you have a special situation regarding
absences.
About the CEP
The Community English Program is a unique and integral part of the TESOL and Applied Linguistics
Programs at Teachers College, Columbia University. It provides English as a second language to adult
learners of diverse nationalities and backgrounds. In addition, the CEP serves as an on-site language
education lab in which TESOL and Applied Linguistics faculty and students enrolled in the programs
teach the courses and use the CEP as a setting for empirical inquiry. Here at Teachers College we
believe that observation and classroom research are the best way to learn about how we teach and gain
insights into how teaching might take place. Thus, we encourage observation and classroom research
and want people to use it as a tool for learning.
