Class Climate
Jack's part
Norm: Students need join the class discussion and answer the question more active.
First, by doing so, students could exchange their ideas with each other which will encourage them to think problems in another perspective. Also, by discussing with each other, we get to be more active in thinking instead of just listening.
Second, if we ask questions more frequently and actively, not only will we solve our questions timely, but also it could stimulate others to think deeply.
Expectations: Teachers can introduce life stories of the writer and give us more context and background of a specific literature output.

Catherine 's part
Norms:Students should complete their homework and tests by themselves.
Expectation: Every students in the class can share their own opinion and thoughts, even if it is not the right answer to the question.
Sharing one's thoughts can improve their courage to speak in front others, and it can also improve one's speaking skills.
There are some students who are really good at studying, and they may have the correct answers to most of the questions, so if just let these students answer questions, then others won't have chance to share their opinion.
It can let student knows how much they really acquire.
It can developing students' independent thinking habit.
Tests must be completed by yourself, or you will be punished and get zero point in the test.
