The exam will draw on knowledge from all parts of the course. You’ll be asked to directly discuss the play texts, as they are the things that structure our semester, and your answers will benefit (significantly) from lectures, group discussions, and the assignments you’ve completed. It’s my belief that we learn in a variety of ways – one of those ways is through my lectures, but the points that come up in discussion are just as significant. For example, if I plan to talk about , e.g., the slave character in The Frogs, but someone else raises this point in class and we discuss it, then I will skip that part of my lecture because we’ve already covered it!

The format is not yet determined, but in all likeliness it will be composed of short- and long-answer questions that you have to answer in full-sentence and/or mini-essay format. Before classes end, I will make the format explicit, by listing how many parts the exams is composed of, and the format for questions in each part.
