Dropping the Class
If you decide to discontinue this course, it is your responsibility to officially drop it to avoid
getting no refund (after 10% of course length), a W symbol (after 20%), or a grade (after 60%).
Also, for several consecutive, unexplained absences, the instructor may drop a student.
Pass‐NoPass (P/NP)
You may take this class P/NP. You must decide before the deadline, and add the option online
with TLC or file the P/NP form with Admissions and Records. With a grade of C or better, you will
get P.
You must file for the P/NP option by put date here. Once you decide to go for P/NP, you cannot
change back to a letter grade. If you are taking this course as part of a certificate program, you
can probably still take the class P/NP. Check with a counselor to be sure.
Class Message List
I check email daily Monday through Friday and frequently on the weekends. I will answer email
questions within 48 hrs. (most frequently sooner). Students can use the class message list linked
to from the class web site for sharing resources and student interaction with classmates.
Attendance
Students who fail to attend the first class (face-to-face courses) or do not log-in to an online
class after the second week will be dropped from the class. It is strongly advised that if you need
to miss more than one class/homework deadline in a row that you contact me to avoid being
dropped from the class.
Late Policy
All assignments are due at midnight PST on the due date. A late submission will receive a 20%
penalty. Submissions more than one week late are not accepted without prior arrangement.
Late work will not be graded unless student sends instructor an email with URL for late work.
Exams
Put your exam information here. It is important for the student to know what exams will be
required. There will be online midterm and final exams. The material comes from the textbook,
class lectures and supplemental materials. If any exam is missed, a zero will be recorded as the
score. It is your responsibility to take the online exams by the due date.
Grading Policy
Visit the Gradebook linked to in the main navigation often to keep track of your grades.
I grade once a week and post grades and comments on the online gradebook. If you are taking
this course to complete one of the SRJC CS Department Web Development Certificates, you
must take the class for a letter grade.
Grades will be assigned as follows: (use a table, not tabs)
A
B
C
D
90%
80%
70%
60%
243 points or more
216 to 242 points
189 to 215 points
162 to 188 points
Less problematic is a simple listing:
90%, 243 points or more = A
80%, 216 to 242 points = B
70%, 189 to 215 points = C
60%, 162 to 188 points = D
If taking Pass/No Pass you need at least 70% of the total class points and complete the
midterm exam and the final exam to pass the class.
Standards of Conduct
Students who register in SRJC classes are required to abide by the SRJC Student Conduct
Standards. Violation of the Standards is basis for referral to the Vice President of Student
Services or dismissal from class or from the College. See the Student Code of Conduct page.
Collaborating on or copying of tests or homework in whole or in part will be considered an act of
academic dishonesty and result in a grade of 0 for that test or assignment. I encourage students
to share information and ideas, but not their work. See these links on Plagiarism:
SRJC Writing Center Lessons on avoiding plagiarism
SRJC's statement on Academic Integrity
Special Needs
Students with disabilities who believe they need accommodations in this class are encouraged
to contact Disability Resources (527-4278), as soon as possible to better ensure such
accommodations are implemented in a timely fashion.
Class Lecture Schedule
It is an optional best practice to include a calendar of assignments. You may want to include a
line about possible changes to the class schedule: It may be necessary to make changes to the
following list of topics. You may want to use a table to display the schedule.
