OTHER REQUIRED A Texas Instruments dual-line calculator with trigonometric MATERIALS, TOOLS, functions is required (example: TI-30X IIS). AND EQUIPMENT:

METHOD OF Concepts will be taught by lecture/demonstration and by INSTRUCTION: group problem-solving. Student participation will be required. Audio-visual aids will be used when appropriate.

GRADING SYSTEM: 90 - 100 = A 80 - 89 = B 70 - 79 = C 60 - 69 = D Below - 60 = F

GRADE See instructor’s handout. CALCULATION METHOD:

ATTENDANCE The student is responsible for punctual and regular POLICY: attendance in all classes, laboratories, clinical, practica, internships, field trips, and other required class activities. The College does not grant excused absences; therefore, students are urged to reserve their absences for emergencies. When illness or other emergencies occur, the student is responsible for notifying instructors and completing missed work if approved for late submission by instructors.

Mathematics Department Attendance and Participation Policy for Lecture Classes:

• Attendance and participation in class is essential to the learning of mathematics. • Students are expected to be in class, to be on time, and to stay for the entire class. • Students arriving late or leaving early will be considered absent for attendance and participation grade purposes according to guidelines set up by your instructor in their class policy sheet. • Students will be allowed to participate in class work given while present at the discretion of the instructor. • Students are responsible for any missed work. • Do not expect tutors, lab assistants and/or instructors to re-teach course content you miss. You need to have attempted the assigned materials before asking for help.

Instructors maintain attendance records. However, it is the student’s responsibility to withdraw from a course. A student enrolling in and attending at least one course session remains enrolled until the student initiates a withdrawal.

Withdrawal Policy: All noted in the instructor class policy sheet. Absences for Religious Holidays: Students who are absent from class in order to observe religious holidays are responsible for the content of any activities missed and for the completion of assignments occurring during the period of absence. Students who anticipate their observance of religious holidays will cause them to be absent from class and do not wish such absences to penalize their status in ______2 SPARTANBURG COMMUNITY COLLEGE, SPARTANBURG, SOUTH CAROLINA

class should adhere to the following guidelines:

1. Observance of religious holidays resulting in three or fewer consecutive absences: Discuss the situation with the instructor and provide written notice at least one week prior to the absence(s). Develop (in writing) an instructor-approved plan which outlines the make up of activities and assignments.

2. Observances of religious holidays resulting in four or more consecutive absences: Discuss the situation with the instructor and provide the instructor with written notice within the first 10 days of the academic term. Develop an instructor-approved plan which outlines the make up of activities and assignments.

ACADEMIC ACADEMIC DISHONESTY: Students are expected to uphold the CONDUCT: integrity of the College's standard of conduct, specifically in regards to academic honesty. All forms of academic dishonesty including, but not limited to, cheating on assignments/tests, plagiarism, collusion, and falsification of information will call for disciplinary action. Disciplinary action imposed may include one or more of the following: written reprimand, loss of credit for assignment/test, termination from course, and probation, suspension, or expulsion from the College. For further explanation of this and other conduct codes, please refer to the Student Handbook.

CELLULAR PHONES AND PAGERS/BEEPERS: Cellular phones, pagers and beepers are not permitted to be turned on or used within the classroom. Use of these devices during classroom time will be considered a violation of the student code as it relates to “disruptive behavior.”

SCC MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT POLICY

NO ELECTRONIC DEVICES WILL BE USED IN THE CLASSROOM WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL OF INSTRUCTOR.

Mathematics Departmental Procedure For Violation of Usage of electronic Devices:

First time violation – Student will cut off electronic device (cell phone without answering it) and place the device on the instructor’s desk until the end of class. The instructor will

remind the student of policy and procedure.

Subsequent violation – Student will cut off electronic device (cell phone without answering it) and place the electronic device on the instructor’s desk until the end of class. Student will be referred to the Chief Student Services Officer for disciplinary action and not allowed to return to class without written notification from the Chief Student Services Officer whose office is located in the Student Services Building.
