ATTENDANCE/PARTICIPATION: Class participation is expected. Attendance will be taken weekly by the

completion of course work.

TESTS: Tests cover material presented in class, assigned reading, and homework problems. The tests will not be cumulative, but prior knowledge is needed to solve current problems. The final with will have cumulative problems. Electronic Devices cannot be used on Tests or Quizzes with the exception of a TI-83 or lower. Makeup on class tests will not be offered in normal cases. However, in exceptional situations and with proper    official documentation (doctor’s note, police report, etc.) I may decide to offer a makeup. If you are given a make-up, in general it will be harder.

HOMEWORK AND QUIZZES: You will have homework assigned online.  You will also have weekly   quizzes that are from the online homework.  No make-up quizzes or late assignments will be accepted. The lowest homework grade will be dropped at the end of the semester.

ATTENDANCE/PARTICIPATION:

All students are expected to log in to their courses regularly throughout the week to receive instruction, materials, and   updates from the instructor. It is your responsibility to check in and submit your assignments, complete your discussion board postings, and finish quizzes and exams by the due dates each week.

If you do not participate in the course each week, you will be counted absent. Simply logging in is not enough; you must submit/complete an assignment, post to a discussion board, or other similar assignment tasks to avoid being counted       absent. Instructors are required to submit attendance the Monday following each week of class.

Once you are marked absent three (3) weeks during a course you will be dropped from the course with a “W” . If you are an international student in a class with a seated requirement, you will be administratively dropped if you do not attend all portions of the seated requirement. Only in the event of rare and unusual circumstances, with formal documentation will you be allowed to continue after your allotted absences.

Attendance is reported to the Financial Aid Department and may result in the loss of any financial aid refund you are expecting if you have not been participating in your courses.

DUE DATES:

All non-exam assignments, such as WebAssign homework and Discussion Forums, will be due on Sundays at midnight.    Exams will be given on Fridays of their respective weeks, so as to make sure you have had the maximal amount of time to study, and will be due at midnight that same Friday.

LATE POLICY:

This is a fast-paced course. You can request an automatic extension for any WebAssign homework assignment as long as it is requested within 7 days of the due date, and that extension will itself last 7 days. You do not need to request this        extension from me; it can be requested and granted automatically on WebAssign. The penalty is 20% unearned credit. Missing a Discussion Board will trigger a 25% penalty per day starting the day after the due date. Missed exams, on the   other hand, will be entered as zeros.

OTHER POLICIES/DATES:

•    One of the only things about which I am strict is academic dishonesty. Cheating of any kind and on any kind of assignment will result in an automatic zero on that assignment.

•    The BEST three ways to guaranteed get in contact with me: Discord (Anthony Vasaturo#1891), email and Facebook messenger.

ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT

The University prohibits all forms of academic misconduct. Academic misconduct refers to dishonesty in examinations (cheating), presenting the ideas or the writing of someone else as one’s own (plagiarism) or knowingly furnishing false information to the University by forgery, alteration, or misuse of University documents, records, or identification. Academic dishonesty includes, but is    not limited to, the following examples: permitting another student to plagiarize or cheat from one’s own work, submitting an academic exercise (written work, printing, design, computer program) that has been prepared totally or in part by another, acquiring improper      knowledge of the contents of an exam, using unauthorized material during an exam, submitting the same paper in two different courses without knowledge and consent of professors, or submitting a forged grade change slip or computer tampering. The faculty member     has the authority to grant a failing grade in cases of academic misconduct as well as referring the case to Student Life.

PLAGIARISM

You are expected to submit your own work and to identify any portion of work that has been borrowed from others in any form. An ignorant act of plagiarism on final versions and minor projects, such as attributing or citing inadequately, will be considered a failure to master an essential course skill and will result in an F for that assignment. A deliberate act of plagiarism, such as having someone else do your work, or submitting someone else’s work as your own (e.g., from the Internet, fraternity file, etc., including homework and in - class exercises), will at least result in an F for that assignment and could result in an F for the course.

ELECTRONIC DEVICES:

Use of electronic devices including smart watches and cell phones is prohibited during exams or quizzes unless directly allowed by the instructor.
