Outcomes
This course will help you develop attitudes that encourage you to:
*Demonstrate a willingness to learn from many cultures, persons, methods, and
viewpoints.
This course will give you the knowledge to:
* Understand the nature of the individual, of human values and of the relationship
between the self and the community.
Note: Often people have had traumatic experiences or have strong feelings on certain
topics. If you feel any of the topics in the text or class will be emotionally damaging to
you, or difficult to learn about or discuss, or would create a “hostile environment” for you
- do not take this course.

MySocLab (Required)
“MySocLab” is a website that provides the videos and written articles to view or
read and take a short multiple choice quiz based on the material. This will add interest to
the class, and enable you to be exposed to material we do not have time to cover in class.
It will also give you one hundred points in the class (one third of the total points). These
are designed so you can view the activity, take the quiz, and reread or view the video
again and change your quiz answers as needed before submitting your answers. You also
may submit your answers unlimited times, and the computer will record your highest
score. Therefore, you should have 100% on this portion of the course.
The activities are seen on the right side of the Course Calendar at the back of this
syllabus. All the activities are available from the first day of class, and will turn off near
the end of the course, on the date indicated in the course calendar, and will not be reset.

Overview of “MySocLab”
1. Click on the name of your course, e.g. “Introduction to Sociology – SOC 101”
2. Before you do anything else:
Click on “Tune up your browser” and follow the directions
This will solve 90% of the technical problems you will have later if you
do not do this
Click on “Set your time zone”, follow the directions and click “Save”
It may automatically be set to Pacific time.
3. On the left hand side you will find the following items:
Assignment Calendar: How to find your assignments!
A. Click the title “Assignment Calendar”, then click “Enter”
B. Go to the last month of the quarter. To change months, click on the
right or left facing triangle on either side of the month.
C. On the last day of the course you will see a clock icon. Click that date.
Here you will find all the MySocLab activities for the entire
quarter, since they all turn off at about 6:00 pm on that
date. This is the date also listed in the Course Calendar at the back
of your syllabus. You may complete that activity on or before that
date, but not after that date. If attempted after that date, the
computer will give you a zero for that activity (which will not be
changed). All the quarter’s activities turn off at that time.
eText & Chapter Audio
This is an electronic version of your text.
Grades
Click on “Student Grades”, on the left hand side to see your grades.
4. MySocLab reading assignments with quizzes:
I suggest you print out the reading assignments and read them before taking the
quiz. You may then refer to them when taking the quiz.
There is a video in the “Start Here” folder to show you how to print the readings.
If you can only print one page, I suggest you listen to that video.
5. MySocLab video (Watch) assignments with quizzes:
I suggest watching the video through once, then take the quiz. You may watch
the video again as often as you want while taking the quiz.
You may change your answers as often as you wish before submitting the quiz.
My expectation is that all students will have 100% correct on all the quizzes.

Exams:
General description:
The four mid-term exams (50 points each) are not cumulative and cover only the
chapters for that exam. The exams are all multiple-choice, and will test your knowledge
of concepts, terms, and findings. You will also be asked to apply some of the
fundamental concepts to new situations.
All exams are available from the first day of the quarter, and close near the last day of the
quarter as indicated on the Course Calendar in this syllabus. I suggest completing all
exams prior to the day they close in case your internet or computer crashes. This gives
you some time to solve any problems. The exams will not be extended. If you have not
completed an exam by the day they turn off, you will receive a zero for that exam –
believe me.
Other exam concerns:
1. Take the exams on a stable internet connection. If your internet crashes, try repeatedly
to restart the connection during the time you have to take the exam. The test will return
at the same place you left off, however, the timer will keep going.
2. Once you start an exam you must complete the 50 questions in 40 minutes. You
cannot pause an exam to look up the answer and come back to it later.
3. The exam labeled, “Practice Exam (Not graded)” is the only practice exam. All others
are real exams. This is to familiarize you with the test taking system. You may take this
exam unlimited times. The real exams can only be taken once. You are not expected to
know the answers to this practice exam, and it is not graded. This is just a trial run to be
sure you know how to take an exam.
4. You may use any notes, study guides, text, or other materials provided in the class
during the exams. You may not use any other source of help.
You need to know the material. You will not have time to look up all the answers; the
exam will turn off before you finish, and you will have a zero for the remaining
questions. Please do not email me saying you had a slow internet connection, your
computer crashed, or something else and ask for the exam to be reset. It will not be.
You may use the computer lab at the college (rm. 3303) for exams if you wish.
5. To reduce cheating, you can only see one question at a time. You cannot go back to
previous questions.
6. I suggest you make notes on topics you are unsure about during the exam if you wish
to restudy those items. To protect the exam, I will not email you the questions you
missed. With online digital questions it is easy to copy the exam questions and send
them to other students, friends, relatives or archive them for future reference.
6
7. If an answer option is “All the above” and it is in position “B” for example, it means
all the other answers. This option may occur in other than the last (“D” or “E”) position
because the questions and answers are scrambled for each student.
8. Scoring exams: The score you receive will be the grade indicated by the computer. I
feel this is the fairest for the largest number of students. While I am glad to discuss the
exam with you, it will not change your score. Any changes in question wording, etc. will
be considered for next quarter, but will not be used to change scores this quarter.
9. I do not recommend taking the exam at Starbucks, Panera, or similar location. You
may be disconnected from the internet if your ant-virus software does not recognize the
network.
When you click “Take this quiz” you must take the exam:
Do not click “Take this quiz” (even by accident) and look through the exam without
answering the questions, then tell me your computer crashed, or you clicked it by
mistake, and ask me to reset the exam. This is the digital equivalent of stealing the exam,
looking at the questions, then asking to take the exam. I can see how long an exam was
open, and print a spreadsheet showing which questions you opened (even if you did not
answer the question) along with the time and date you did it.
You can only open an exam once. It will not be reset.
How to do well on the exams:
The exams come from the text and many additional items to help you understand
the material. Use the Course Calendar at the end of this syllabus to keep yourself on
track so you will have covered the material and understand it before you take the exam.
To understand each topic, read the text, listen to the class presentation, take notes, review
the chapter diagrams, and complete the study guides.
Go to “Quizzes” not “Grades” to take the exams:
If you use the grades tab to take the exams, the countdown clock will not be
available.
7
Avoid procrastination:
Do not wait until the last possible day to take the exams. Emails like, “I forgot
what the last day was”, or ”I tried to take the exams, and my computer (or internet) had
problems”, or, “My electricity turned off”, or “I tried to open the last exam, and it was
not there (emailed after the last day)”, now it is past the last day and the class is over,
how do I make it up? The answer is, you don’t. Any exams not completed before the
exams turn off as indicated in the course calendar have a score of zero – believe me.
Therefore, I recommend at least following the suggested course calendar at the back of
the syllabus to avoid this procrastination.
Please remember, you need to have completed all four exams and MySocLab by at least
the last day indicated in the syllabus at about 6:00 pm. All items turn off at that time –
believe me. You may complete everything early if you wish. My hope is that having the
exams and study materials available at the start of the quarter will let you progress at your
individual pace and make it more convenient for family and work schedules, thereby
making the class more enjoyable for you.
8
Taking the exams:
When taking the exams, you must answer one question before going on. You
may not go back. Also, If you skip a question you may not go back to answer it. It is
best to have an answer for each question.

Note: Your time remaining is shown in the upper right hand corner. At the end of that
time, the exam will automatically stop and will not be reset. Therefore, please watch
your time remaining.
********************************************************************
YOU MUST CLICK “SUBMIT” FOR ALL EXAMS BEFORE THEY TURN OFF AS
INDICATED IN THE COURSE CALENDAR. AT ABOUT 6:00 pm THE EXAMS
TURN OFF AND YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE CREDIT FOR TAKING ANY
REMAINING EXAMS. I SUGGEST YOU END ALL YOUR EXAMS PRIOR TO
THAT DAY JUST TO BE SURE, IN CASE THE CLOCKS ARE DIFFERENT, OR
YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS.
The Course Calendar gives you a suggested schedule.
*********************************************************************
You need to take the exams on or before the date indicated in the Course
Calendar. The closing dates will not be extended. If you have not completed an item by
the last day, you will receive a zero for that item – believe me.
The Course Calendar in the back of this syllabus gives you a suggested schedule for the
quarter, including the last date for completing the exams.

All students are treated the same:
After all grades are in, or even during the quarter, some students want me to make a new,
grading scale or create exam options just for them that do not apply to the rest of you.
These requests sound like this: “Can I take the exam again, I didn’t like my score.” “I
only need one more point to get the next higher grade … please.” “I am failing the
class, so don’t give me the grade I earned, give me an NC (or an Incomplete) instead.”
“If you give me the grade I earned, I can not get into the university.” “I need a 2.0, or I
will be deported.” “I will lose my financial aid.” “I forgot to take the test (or do an
activity) when it was scheduled with everyone else, so can I take it now (several days
later)?” “I tried (or I learned a lot) so you should give me a higher grade.” “I did not
know I was registered in the class and did absolutely nothing, so I should not receive a
0.0 grade.” “I had personal problems during the quarter, so you should increase my grade
(or any deadlines should not apply to me).” “I did not remember it was due then, so can I
turn it in now?” “I didn’t complete the exam, so give me more time than everyone else
so I can finish it.” I cannot grade based on any of these factors. You need to do the best
you possibly can from the first day of class, and feel confident the grade you receive at
the end was the best you are capable of.
Here is an example of an email sent to a student explaining my thoughts on this matter.
“I receive many mails from students wanting me to make an exception because of their
personal situations. It would not be fair to other students to make individual decisions
allowing one student to do something others were not allowed to do (based on the syllabus
they received the first day). I have no doubt that what you say is true. However, I cannot
make grading or changes in the syllabus based on each student's difficult situation. Many
students have families, take a heavy course load, and work long hours, have family
emergencies in another country, get sick and have other situations during the quarter.
I do not believe you would be happy if you learned I allowed someone to retake an exam
and not you because I liked his or her story more than yours. As a result, I attempt to treat
all students fairly and equally based on the syllabus.”
If you need help with anything, please see me. I want you to do very well in class and
have established many items to help you do so. These include:
(1) “How To Study” sheet in this syllabus,
(2) Class Presentations
(3) Power point slides,
(4) The text
(5) Study Guides,
(6) Chapter Diagrams
(7) My office hours if you need additional help understanding the material.
With all this support, please remember, all students are treated the same.

Instructor created study materials
Class Presentations (Videos):
To view the class presentation videos, click on the file. After the introductory slide
appears, click on the right pointing triangle. This will start the presentation. Be certain
the volume is on (mute turned off) and the volume is turned up to a comfortable level.
You may then simply sit back and listen to the presentation as if you were attending the
class that created these presentations. However, you have the advantage of being able to
pause or rewind and review the presentation using the controls at the bottom of the
screen.
These recordings have been made “live” in class.
When listening to the recordings and watching the slides, it is good to have the Study
Guide, Chapter Diagram, Power Points and text in front of you to use as guides to what
will be on the exam.
These recordings, and the related Power Point slides, have been included for the
following reasons:
1. It gives you a feeling of being in class, complete with stories, examples, and
comments.
2. You get to know your instructor on a more personal level
3. You get to hear explanations of topics that may be difficult to comprehend
otherwise.
Playing the video files:
If you cannot play the videos, you need the ability to download and play .mp4 files. This
software is available as a free download from the internet. I would search for “Download
.mp4 files”, and choose one you feel may be reputable. Windows Media player, Real
Player and Quick Time will all do that. Most computers (PC and Mac) come with this
ability, and it is not a problem for most students.
A fun way to listen to the videos:
Rather than listening to the videos alone, if you have friends in the course it may
be more fun to get together with pizza and popcorn and listen to them (like going to the
movies). Pause the tape at the “Do You Remember” questions and discuss them among
yourselves to see if you understand them. This is also a good time to take a break before
continuing. CAUTION: Do not take the exam immediately afterward with the other
students. You could be accused of helping each other with the answers, which is
cheating, and everyone would receive a zero for the exam.
13
“Do You Remember?” questions:
The videos have “Do You Remember?” questions to help you review the material
immediately after it has been presented. If you cannot remember the answers to these
questions, then is a good time to go back and immediately review them to reinforce your
memory. These questions have also been duplicated in a Word document for each exam,
and are in a file under the “Start Here” videos. Print these out and complete the answers
when listening to the videos. You can then use these to study for the exams.
Also, since the videos can be long, I suggest you take a break when you get to these
questions. You can walk around, or get something to drink. This will reset your
attention span, which will help you to refocus and start remembering the material again.
Power Point slides:
The Power Point slides are not “canned” from the textbook, they have been made by your
instructor specifically to help you with the exams, and are the same ones used in the class
presentations. If you wish to print out the slides, they are available in a file entitled
“Power Point Slides”. I suggest printing out three or six slides per page.
“Discussion questions” are idea starters
The discussion questions in each chapter do not need to be completed or handed in.
There is no additional credit for discussion postings or replying to a post, however, if
someone wants to post a discussion, these can be idea starters.
14
Chapter diagrams
Chapter diagrams are “Concept Maps” of the key concepts being discussed in
lecture, text, and exams. The theory behind these maps is that you can remember a
diagram (or photograph or drawing) better than written text or an outline. This is
particularly true of visual learners.
How to use them:
The best way to use these is to print them out on a color printer and have them in
front of you (along with the study guides) when you listen to the lectures during class.
When listening to the lectures, exam reviews, or reading the text, you can take notes and
transfer the key ideas to the concept diagrams for later study.
When writing the notes into your diagram, ask yourself if you understand them;
then explain it to yourself (or someone else). It will work even better if you can say this
aloud to yourself so you can hear it.
How to study with them:
1. Add any notes you want to the diagram
2. Develop a mental image of the diagram
3. Try to reproduce that image on a blank piece of paper without looking at the
original diagram.
4. Compare your diagram to the original.
A. The missing items are the ones you need to concentrate on
B. Repeat this process.
A video on Chapter Diagrams has been posted under: Home Page > **Start Here.
Study guides
This file gives you a study guide for each chapter. These are designed directly from the
exams. While you read the text, listen to the class presentations, and view the Power
Point slides, keep these sheets with you, and work toward being able to answer each of
the questions. These will then help you during the exams.
15
How to study:
Look at the course calendar to see what materials need to be covered that day.
MySocLab:
Complete these items before the date they turn off as indicated in the class calendar.
All activities are available from the start of class. However, this will eliminate
any computer problems preventing you from receiving credit after the assignment turns
off.
Class materials (for each chapter):
1. Print out the study materials. This includes the power points (3-6 to a page), chapter
diagrams, and the study guide.
This will help you focus your studying on the most important items.
2. Spread out the text and all the materials in front of you, then listen to the lecture video.
Pause the video to make notes on the study materials.
This will help you recall the lecture material.
3. Review the visual summary, “Making The Grade” at the back of the chapter in the text
along with the chapter itself, and highlight the topics presented in the study materials.
Use the text as a reference book, do not read page after page.
This will help you review the class material, and see how it relates to the text.
4. After listening to the video and reading the text:
A. Add to any notes you may have made on the power points, diagrams, etc.
B. Complete the study guide questions. They do not need to be handed in.
This will help you further understand the material presented in the video and
focus your study time on what is most apt to be on the exam.
Each day:
Take about fifteen minutes per chapter to review the materials presented since the last
exam.
Learning research tells us that many short reviews helps you remember the
material much better than one long review.

Miscellaneous items
Acceptance of the syllabus: Your registration for, and continued presence in this class
indicates you have read, understand, and accept the entire syllabus (including the grading
scale, time limits, etc.).
Incompletes: No “Incomplete” (I) grades will be given.
No Credit “NC” grades and Withdrawals: You must request an "NC" grade or
withdraw by the “last day to withdraw” indicated on the course calendar. If you
have not, you will receive a decimal grade for this course.
************************************************************************
When the Registrar’s office says you can get an “NC” grade up until the end of the
quarter, they mean they will process it. What they tend not to tell you is that you
can only receive an NC if requested by the instructor based on the criteria for
assigning an NC grade. My criteria are that you can only receive an NC grade if it
is requested prior to the last day to withdraw. After that date you will receive a
decimal grade. Do not tell me the Registrar said you could get an NC grade up until
the end of the quarter – you cannot.
************************************************************************
Cheating: Any cheating on exams will result in a score of zero (“0”) for that exam (which
can not be retaken). Copying an exam, sending or showing an exam to another student,
or keeping an exam is considered cheating. Facilitating the cheating of another student is
also considered cheating, and both parties will receive a zero. Being with another student
in the same class while taking the exam will be considered collaborating on answering
the exam questions, and will be considered cheating.
Guidelines for Student Conduct: Students are expected to comply with student conduct
policy and procedures. Information on student responsibilities and rights is available at
the following website: https://northseattle.edu/policies/student-conduct-policy
Americans with Disabilities Act: If you need course adaptations or accommodation
because of a disability; you must contact Disability Services at phone 206-934-3697, or
TTY: 206-934-0079 or on the web at https://northseattle.edu/disability-services.

How to check your internet browser if you are having problems
1. Go to the class website and log in.
3. Often, simply turning off “pop-up blockers” on your web browser will solve problems.
4. Another way to check your browser is to try all the class activities, such as the Power
Points, the recordings, and the class materials. If these all work, you are ok. If you still
have questions, contact the eLearning office on the first page of this syllabus.
How to withdraw from the course:
You may withdraw from a course via the internet at: NSCC home page > Services >
Online Services > Register/Add/Drop Classes, and follow the directions
