Grades and Credit
You will receive the same grade for your high school course as you receive for your college course. Your grade for this class will become part of your permanent college transcript and will affect your GPA. A low grade in this course can affect college acceptance and scholarship eligibility.
Tips for Success in This course
This course is very detailed in nature so class attendance is highly recommended. I encourage you to obtain the e‐mail addresses and phone numbers of several other students who you could share notes and information with in case you become ill and cannot attend. You are still responsible for any work missed.
This course may require you to put in a significant amount of time outside of class. As with most university level courses the general rule of thumb is for every hour spent in class you should set aside at least two hours outside of class to master the material. It may take some of you more time than others depending on your comfort level with the subject matter.
This course uses lectures, worksheets, assignments, and projects to teach you the material. Lectures are not the time for you to complete your worksheets or assignments. These worksheets are not very difficult or time consuming but are important when it comes to learning the material.
Academic Integrity
Utah Valley University expects all students to maintain integrity and high standards of individual honesty in academic work, to obey the law, and to show respect for others. Students of this class are expected to support an environment of academic integrity, have the right to such an environment, and should avoid all aspects of academic dishonesty. Examples of academic dishonesty include plagiarizing, faking of data, sharing information during an exam, discussing an exam with another student who has not taken the exam, consulting reference material during an exam, submitting a written assignment which was authored by someone other than you, and/or cheating in any form. Violators of this policy will be subject to disciplinary action. Cheating will not be tolerated. It will result in a FAILING grade for the course.
In keeping with UVU policy, evidence of academic dishonesty may result in a failing grade in the course and disciplinary review by the college. Additional information on this topic is published in the student handbook and is available on the UVU website.
Students with Disabilities
If you have any disability, which may impair your ability to successfully, complete this course, please contact the Accessibility Services office, 863-8747, BU 146. Academic accommodations are granted for all students who have qualified documented disabilities. All services are coordinated with the Accessibility Services office.
