Excessive absences can reduce a student’s grade or deny credit for the course. 2. Students taking a late exam because of an unauthorized absence are charged a late exam fee. 3. Students and faculty at Oral Roberts University must adhere to all laws addressing the ethical use of others’ materials, whether it is in the form of print, electronic, video, multimedia, or computer software. Plagiarism and other forms of cheating involve both lying and stealing and are violations of ORU’s Honor Code: “I will not cheat or plagiarize; I will do my own academic work and will not inappropriately collaborate with other students on assignments.” Plagiarism is usually defined as copying someone else’s ideas, words, or sentence structure and submitting them as one’s own. Other forms of academic dishonesty include (but are not limited to) the following: a. Submitting another’s work as one’s own or colluding with someone else and submitting that work as though it were his or hers; b. Failing to meet group assignment or project requirements while claiming to have done so; c. Failing to cite sources used in a paper; d. Creating results for experiments, observations, interviews, or projects that were not done; e. Receiving or giving unauthorized help on assignments. By submitting an assignment in any form, the student gives permission for the assignment to be checked for plagiarism, either by submitting the work for electronic verification or by other means. Penalties for any of the above infractions may result in disciplinary action including failing the assignment or failing the course or expulsion from the University, as determined by department and University guidelines. 4. Final exams cannot be given before their scheduled times. Students need to check the final exam schedule before planning return flights or other events at the end of the semester. 5.

B. Department Policies and Procedures

7 © Copyright Oral Roberts University 2012. All rights reserved.

1. Attendance—At Oral Roberts University, students are expected to attend all classes. Understanding that there are sometimes unavoidable circumstances that prevent perfect attendance, each student is allowed to miss class the number of times per week a class meets. This allowance is for illness, personal business, and personal emergency. Students may consider this personal days or sick leave. If a student has absences in excess of this number, the earned grade for the course will be reduced one-third of a letter grade for each hour’s absence above those allowed. A student missing class due to illness must take an unexcused absence. Extended illnesses are handled on an individual basis and require a doctor’s excuse. 2. Administratively Excused Absences—Students who must miss class for University sponsored activities must follow these procedures: a. Inform the professor before the event. b. Arrange to complete missed work within one week. c. Not commit to class performances (oral reports, speeches, television tapings, group presentations, etc.) on a date the student will be gone. Makeup work is not permitted if the student voluntarily commits to a performance on the date of an administratively excused absence. d. Present an excuse, signed by the Dean of Arts and Cultural Studies, the day the student returns. 3. Tardies—Tardies are an inconvenience to the other class members and the professor, and they prevent the late student from obtaining maximum value from the class. Therefore, tardies are calculated in the attendance provision for this course. It is to the student’s advantage to make sure that the professor is informed immediately following the close of the class that the student was tardy and not absent. It is not the professor’s responsibility to stop the class to mark the student late; the student is the one responsible to convey that information following that class. Students should not expect to be credible the following class session concerning a late arrival on a previous day. 4. Late Work—The student is responsible for obtaining class assignments and material covered during an absence. All work must be completed as scheduled. An absence is not an excuse for turning in late work or for being unprepared with assignments for the class following the absence. If late work is accepted, a substantial penalty will be assessed. 5. Literacy—The Communication, Arts, and Media Department does not accept for credit any written assignment that contains more than an average of three grammatical and/or typographical errors per page. 6. Whole Person Assessment—Refer to the Communication, Arts, and Media WPA handbook for policies at (http://oru.edu), click on Academics, then WPA, then Department Resources, then CAM Handbook HTML.

C. Course Policies and Procedures 1. Evaluation Procedure This course is evaluated on a point system with every assignment, test, quiz, production, etc., given a point value. Students may keep up with their progress by keeping count of the number of points they have accumulated. Grades are figured based on the following scale. 90 - 100% of the total points = A = Exceptional 80 - 89% of the total points = B = Above Average 70 - 79% of the total points = C = Average 60 - 69% of the total points = D = Below Average Below 59% of the total points = F = Failing

Quiz Scores = 21% of grade Production Exercises = 72% of grade Final Exam = 7% of grade ______= 100% of Grade 8 © Copyright Oral Roberts University 2012. All rights reserved.

2. Whole Person Assessment Requirements: None 3. Other Policies and/or Procedures a. Class assignments (1) Tests—are on the textbook chapters. Follow your calendars for assignments. (2) Students will also be tested on the equipment in the audio lab. Each piece of equipment will be covered, and the student will have a chance for hands-on experience before the tests are given. The student must have a working knowledge of the equipment as soon as possible. If the student doesn’t understand something, please ask the instructor. b. Projects—Projects will be explained in the lectures and demonstrated in the lab. Each student will complete a 30-second music bed, a 60-second commercial both analog and digital, a ten-minute live interview, and a number of in-class exercises. c. Attitude—The professor is here to serve the students. The professor’s purpose is to facilitate learning desiring to make the student the best possible, and be a success in the chosen field. The instructor wants to make learning in this class fun. This class will not be easy, but it will be enjoyable. d. This is an intro class so it will start slowly and gain momentum as the semester progresses. Students will be doing a lot of hands-on in the labs and practicing in front of the class, which will help students get over the fear of an audience. This class is not too difficult, but the student must be willing to take responsibility. e. Attendance in class is a requirement to pass the course. There are times however when a student cannot make a class due to sickness, funerals, school athletics, or school functions. This becomes a problem for the teacher to decide whether an absence is justified or not, and an even greater challenge to maintain a correct record of excused verses unexcused classes. In the work force, employees are normally given a set amount of time for sickness while still being paid. After that time runs out, the employee is no longer paid for his time off. To simplify attendance and prepare the student for a career after college, we will adopt a similar system. f. Students are permitted to miss three days a semester of class. It doesn’t matter why the student missed them, but any absence beyond three days will incur a penalty of 1/3 of a grade drop per absence. This includes medical, funeral, etc. These are not holidays! Use them wisely. There will be no exceptions to this rule. Administrative excuses are considered separate. Students with perfect attendance and no tardies will be given a grade lift of 1/3 at the end of the semester as a bonus. One tardy or absence nullifies this bonus. This includes administrative excuses. h. Make-up work is the student’s responsibility. The student has one week to make up a missed assignment after returning to class. After that time a zero will be entered for that assignment. Production projects that are assigned are not included in this policy. In broadcasting it is important to meet the “on-air” time. Late work is a waste of time. i. Students arriving late for class will be considered tardy. Students who leave early from class will also be assessed a penalty. The following will apply for late/early situations: 1 minute to 15 minutes = ¼ of a cut (absence). 16 minutes to 30 minutes = ½ of a cut (absence). beyond 30 minutes = an absence
