Course Policies

Class attendance:
On-time attendance at all class meetings is highly expected. One half of your class participation grade is made up of class attendance, and each unexcused absence will cause you to forfeit the attendance credit for that day. Missing more than 15 minutes of class (either through arriving late or leaving early) will count as missing the entire class. Per university policy, excused absences are only granted in cases of serious illness (proved with physician or medical doctor letter) or grave family emergencies, and each of these situations must be documented to our satisfaction. Any student who misses his/her group presentation in recitation due to an unexcused absence will forfeit 50% of the oral presentation points earned by the group. If there is a written/homework assignment to complete for class (noted on the syllabus), failure to do the assignment will result in no credit for attendance that day.

 

Excused Absences:
The following situations are as acceptable reasons for excused absences:

  1. serious illness;
  2. illness or death of family member;
  3. University-related trips;
  4. major religious holidays;
  5. other circumstances you find to be "reasonable cause for nonattendance".

 

Make-up opportunity:
For those who have an excused absence, there will be an opportunity to make up missed work and/or exams.  It is the student's responsibility to inform the instructor of the absence preferably in advance, but no later than one week after it. Bring with you any medical doctor prove of your illness or other proves of your absences for verification purpose.

Submission of Assignments:

  1. The group papers will cover elaboration of chapter assignment to be presented in front of class.
  2. The paper must include practical examples of the topic that your group is assigned as attachments.
  3. The power point is included as attachement of the paper as well.
  4. Written report of group paper is due a week before presentation is  scheduled.
  5. Each group must still have to make prepare one page commentary as a review of other groups topics. The paper to be reviewed will accepted a week before presentation in soft copy format.

Academic Integrity, Cheating and Plagiarism: 
Students must up hold the academic honesty by avoding any forms of cheating.As per university’s academic rule and code of ethics, plagiarism and other forms of cheating are absolutely unacceptable. One of forms of pagiarism is cutting and pasting information from the Internet without crediting the source.
