Grades earned in courses impact academic progression and financial aid status. Before withdrawing from a course, be sure to talk with your instructor and financial aid counselor about the implications of that course of action. D’s, F’s, W’s, WF’s and I’s also negatively impact academic progression and financial aid status. The Add/Drop Period is the first 5 days of the semester for full term classes. Add/Drop periods are shorter for accelerated format courses. The following week of the semester is Financial Aid Attendance Verification period. You must attend at least one meeting of all of your classes during that period. If you do not, you will be dropped from the course(s) and your Financial Aid will be reduced accordingly.

INSTRUCTORS POLICIES :

This course will use the Desire 2 Learn (D2L) system to provide course information, handouts, assignments, exams etc. Some of the assignments will be downloaded from D2L then submitted through D2L when completed. Any student not familiar with D2L shall contact the SSTC directly to receive any training he or she may need. If you feel you need additional training on the operation of D2L, it is your responsibility to contact the SSTC and set up a training session. The SSTC may be contacted by visiting the college website and clicking on the link for the SSTC.

In accordance with school policy, no eating, drinking or smoking is allowed in class.

Cell phones must be shut off while in the classroom. If you are expecting an important call due to someone being ill or some other justifiable reason, let me know prior to the beginning of class and you can set your phone to vibrate. Any violations of this policy will receive a warning the first time and the next time you will be asked to leave the class and will be marked absent for that day.

Attendance Policy

Any student leaving class without the instructor’s permission will be counted as absent for the day. This includes exams.

In accordance with departmental policy, you will be withdrawn from the course after you miss in excess of 90% of the total contact hours for this course.

Attendance will be kept on D2L and will be available for you to monitor your percentage of attendance.

In accordance with the school withdrawal policy, if you withdraw after the 2/3 point in the semester you will receive a grade of WF for the course if you are failing at that time.

pg. 5 Attendance will be taken and recorded at the time the class is scheduled to begin. If you arrive late it your responsibility to notify me so that the absent mark can be changed to tardy. Three unexcused tardies will count as one unexcused absence. If you arrive more than ten minutes after the scheduled time for class to begin, you will be marked absent.

An excused absence will be granted provided you give previous notice of your expected absence and any missed work for that day is made up. If you have a last minute reason you cannot make it to class, you must notify me by phone message or e-mail as to why you were absent within 24 hours of the missed class. If you do not notify me within the 24 hour time period you will be marked absent for the class.

Make-up Test Policy

Exams will be given on the scheduled dates. Make-up exams will be scheduled provided you give previous notice of your expected absence. If you have a last minute reason you cannot take the exam at the scheduled time, you must notify me by phone message or e-mail as to why you were absent within 24 hours of the scheduled exam time. If you do not notify me within the 24 hour time period you will not be allowed to make-up the exam and you will receive a score of zero (0). Any make-up exam will be taken at the Testing Center within one week of the scheduled exam or a score of zero (0) will be entered for that exam. It is the students responsibility to schedule the make- up exam..

Homework Policy

Homework will be assigned from time to time throughout the semester. Homework is assigned to afford you an opportunity to practice solving problems based on what you have learned in the classroom. Homework is due and will be collected during the class following when it was assigned. Late homework will be accepted up to one class period following the due date, however, it will automatically loose a 10% deduction from the grade for being late. Homework will not be accepted after this. Any homework not submitted by the late date will be counted as a 0 (zero).

All homework shall be completed on quadrille paper (lined graph paper) using the format shown on the attached page. Pages without the pre-printed heading shall have a similar heading drawn on each page. This format is used throughout the engineering community and all employees are expected to follow it. Remember, you may have to justify one of your calculations several years after the work was completed and this will be impossible if you just hap-hazardly scribble down formulas on a sheet of paper.

Homework not completed on the proper paper will not be accepted.

pg. 6 Class Participation

A quiz is on the D2L pertaining to this syllabus and will count toward the class participation grade. Based on your attendance in class, up to a maximum of ten points can be earned towards this grade. The following table will be used for to assign these points

Percent Attendance Points Earned 95.1% to 100% 10 92.6% to 95.0% 7 90.1% to 92.5% 4 85.0% to 90.0% 0

At various times through the semester, problems may be given in class to reinforce a subject covered in the lecture using CPS. All students will be assigned a remote answering device to participate in the problems. Scores earned on these problems will also contribute to the class participation portion of the final grade.

Lab Policy

You are expected to participate in the lab exercises. You will be assigned to a group which will perform all laboratory exercises together. Each group shall submit a report in the format furnished. The Lab report will be due one week following the completion of the lab.

If you miss a lab, you will be given a sheet containing data similar to that which would have been obtained in the field had you been there. You shall complete the lab using the data furnished and submit an individual report by the next class. The grade will be reduced by 20% for missing the lab.
