Aside from exams and discussions, there is one term paper, one Acme case presentation, and five homework sets. Click on the links for more details.

Term paper

The term paper is a paper of around 2000 words about a “green” process or product. This assignment has a first draft due by Aug 1, 2013 and the final draft due by Aug 6, 2013. It is worth 150 points, or 15% of the total grade.

Acme presentation

For the Acme case presentation you must write a paper or presentation making the case for the company to invest in something to meet its sustainability goals. You may alternatively make a case against such an investment. The presentation can be done as a paper (in MS Word or similar) or as a presentation (in Powerpoint, Prezi, etc.). In 2013 The first draft is due around July 25th, and the final draft due around July 29th (with the exact dates depending on your discussion times). It is worth 100 points, or 10% of your total grade.

Problem sets

These are sets of short and long questions to test your understanding and appreciation of the units; the assigned readings from Hill and elsewhere, as well as my Powerpoint readings. The questions will normally relate to the units you have recently completed.
