Attendance Policy

Attendance is critical; participation of all students in the classroom activities is essential to this learning format. Students should be aware that attendance does not guarantee a passing grade in the class. Students missing more than TWO classes in courses that meet once per week will receive a failing grade. The student may file a drop form within the appropriate time frame through the office of the Registrar to avoid a failing grade.

Note: The failing grade issued will be an F. Students may be required to retake courses to complete program requirements.

As a courtesy to your fellow classmates and instructor, please turn off your cell phone, beeper, or anything else that might cause a disturbance during class. You may use a regular calculator with buttons which may not be substituted by a cell phone, laptop or any other digital gadget.

**** NO ELECTRONIC CALCULATORS IN CLASS ****

The course is based on mastery of course outcomes. The student's grade for this course will be calculated based on performance.

The assignment of a letter grade for a course is an indication of the student's overall success in achieving the learning outcomes for the course. The course letter grade may be viewed as a summary statement of the student's achievement in individual assessments (assignments & activities). These assessments are intended to identify for students their strengths as well as those areas in need of improvement. Student work is assessed according to the guidelines below.
