The grade received
on the re-test of the
proctored exam will
be averaged with the
grade received on the
first proctored exam
for the final score of
that grade.
In helping you to reach the goal of becoming a registered nurse, all assigned coursework is important. For a
satisfactory completion of this course, all assignments must be completed as directed by the course instructor and
to the satisfaction of the course instructor.
Documents are expected to be neat, complete and turned in on time. Sloppy, incomplete work, and/or late work
will have 10 points deducted from the assignment score for each day that it is late/ has to be redone. In the case of
clinical paperwork, a grade of “U” will be assigned congruent with the area(s) that do not meet the criteria being
addressed in the paperwork. It is possible for the student to receive a “U” for the day.
All papers and documents greater than 2 pages must be submitted in a folder with the student’s name on the
outside of the folder (unless it is a research or formal typed paper). Loose documents will not be accepted.

POLICIES/PROCEDURES
The Student Code of Conduct for South Carolina Technical College System is in effect for all college-sponsored
activities to include classrooms, labs, clinical, field trips, etc. The Student Code of Conduct and Student
Grievance Procedure Manual are available on the ATC website.
ACADEMIC DISHONESTY POLICY
All forms of academic dishonesty including, but not limited to cheating on tests, plagiarism, collusion, and
falsification of information will call for progressive discipline.
1. Cheating on a test is defined to include the following:
• Copying from another student’s test.
• Using materials during a test not authorized by the person giving the test.
• Collaborating with any other person during a test without permission.
• Knowingly obtaining, using, buying, selling, transporting, or soliciting in whole or in part the
contents of an un-administered test.
• Bribing any other person to obtain tests or information about test.
• Substituting for another student, or permitting any other person to substitute for oneself.
2. Plagiarism is defined as the appropriation of any other person’s work and the unacknowledged
incorporation not that work in one’s own work offered for credit.
CLASSROOM BEHAVIOR
Discussion and expression of all views relevant to the subject matter is recognized as necessary to the educational
process, but students have no right to interfere with the freedom of instructors to teach or the rights of other
students to learn. The instructor sets the standard of behavior acceptable in the classroom by announcing these
standards early in the term. If a student behaves disruptively in class after the instructor has explained the
unacceptability of such conduct, the instructor may dismiss the student for the remainder of that class period.
The policy regarding cellphones will be strictly enforced. The policy is listed in Section 4 of the Nursing
Student Handbook. No cell phones allowed on or out in the classroom at any time . The use
of voice recorders may be allowed if pre-approved by the instructor (A Request for the use of an Electronic
Device form will need to be completed). The student must complete the Request for the use of an Electronic
Device form. Students will be placed on probation for violation. 2nd offense will result in dismissal from
class and failure of the course.
No photographs or images of the instructor or any class materials may be taken at any time without the
consent of the instructor.
Students are expected to complete all reading assignments before the lecture so they are prepared to
participate in class discussion and activities.
ATTENDANCE
Due to the rapid pace of the nursing programs, any absence jeopardizes the student’s mastery of critical content
and essential clinical skills. The faculty views absences as extremely deleterious to a student’s progress in the
program and require the highest levels of written and validated justification for any absence. There are no
excused absences or allowed cuts from class or clinical. Serious illness, death in the immediate family, accidents
and other untoward events will be evaluated 1:1 with the lead teacher. Notification to the lead instructor prior to
the known absence is expected and is considered professional behavior.
A single absence (class or clinical) will result in probation; two absences will constitute failure of the course.
Absence from a test will result in a “0”. Absence from clinical will result in an “unsatisfactory” for that clinical
day. Make-up work for missed lecture time is at the discretion of the lead instructor. Any clinical time missed
must be made up prior to progressing to the next semester courses per instructor stipulation. Tardy is defined as
one minute late by the instructor’s watch. If a student leaves class or clinical early or is late returning from break
this will be counted as a tardy. Two tardies to class, clinical, or skills lab constitute one absence. If a student will
be tardy for any reason, it is the responsibility of the student to notify the instructor prior to the time for the
Syllabus Fall 2022

session to start.
COVID-19 REQUIREMENTS FOR CLINICAL
Covid-19 requirements for testing, screening, and vaccination will vary based on the assigned clinical facility for
the course. Please note, students and faculty must meet the facility requirements in order to attend clinical.
LABORATORY EXPERIENCE
In addition to regularly scheduled lecture and clinical hours, students may be required to attend
laboratory activities. Simulated Clinical Experiences may be used and are designed to focus on
critical thinking and hands-on skill development.
OPEN LAB HOURS – ROOM 1413-1416
Each semester, open lab hours are posted for that semester. Please refer to the schedule that is posted on the lab
door. Open lab is designed to provide the student with opportunities to seek additional assistance with subject
matter. This may include course content that needs clarifying, additional practice with medication calculations, or
hands on practice with a skill. The Open Lab is staffed by the nursing faculty during the assigned times and
additional times may be scheduled by appointment with the lead instructor.
INSTRUCTOR OFFICE HOURS
The instructor has posted office hours on the office door (Room 1405 for Mrs. Duffie) during which time she is
available to the students. If a student needs to meet with the instructor at a time outside of those hours, the student
may contact the instructor so that a time that is convenient for the student can be provided.
It is the student’s responsibility to check the ATC student email account as well as blackboard for
messages from the instructor.
STUDENT EVALUATION AND GRADING

ATI Assessments
For this course you are required to take a proctored ATI exam at the Aiken Technical College Testing Center.
Your proctored exam date can be found on the course calendar. You will be given access to a practice assessment
prior to taking the proctored exam at the testing center. You are required to take Practice Exam B. Based on your
individual assessment findings, remediation is required to be completed for each of your identified areas needing
review.
Practice Assessment B will be available to you on the ATI site beginning by noon on August 26th. You may take
this practice assessment as many times as you like. However, there is a 48-hour lockout time period after each
attempt at Assessment B.
By November 4th at 11:59pm, you must make a score of at least 90% on Practice Assessment B in order to be
allowed to sit for the ATI proctored exam scheduled for November 9th. If, on the proctored exam, the minimum
Level 2 benchmark is not met, you will then remediate and retest. The ATI retest is scheduled for December 1st at
1 pm in the Testing Center.
PROCTORED CONTENT MASTERY SCORES AND TESTING
➢ Level 2 will be the benchmark for all Content Mastery exams.
➢ Students who do not achieve the benchmark on the 1st Proctored Exam in a course/content area must
remediate and retake the exam. (See ATI Contract and Policy)
➢ The first score on each proctored exam content area will count toward the course grade per the grading
guidelines found in the course syllabus.
➢ The grade will be assigned based on the achieved level of proficiency.
o Proficiency Level 3:
Grade 96
o Proficiency Level 2:
Grade: 89
o Proficiency Level 1:

through ATI review modules and course materials.
➢ The student is to develop a Focused Review based on the proctored exam results. A minimum of 3 hours
must be completed per test (Refer to ATI Remediation worksheet).
➢ Students required to remediate must meet individually with the course professor (or other designated
nursing faculty member) to receive remediation direction and provide evidence that remediation has been
completed prior to retesting. Remediation and retesting may be necessary to take place between
semesters.
➢ Retest for a proctored test will occur as scheduled on course calendar.
➢ The grade received on a re-test of a proctored exam will be averaged with the grade received on the
first proctored exam for the final score of that grade.
➢ Only those students not achieving at least a Level 2 on the first ATI proctored test will be assigned
or permitted to take a re-test of the proctored ATI test.

QUALITY ENHANCEMENT PLAN (QEP)
A QEP is part of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges decennial
reaccreditation process. The QEP describes a carefully designed course of action that addresses a well-defined and
focused topic or issue related to enhancing student learning and/or student success. Aiken Technical College’s
QEP is READ, WRITE, ACHIEVE! Its goals are to increase student awareness and utilization of student support
services; to improve transition and success rates for students moving from transitional writing to ENG 101 and
ENG 160; and to improve student reading and writing outcomes. Year 1 (2020-21) focuses on student awareness
and utilization of support services, such as Academic Counseling, Tutoring, and Library Resources. Year 2 (202122) incorporates Open Educational Resources (OER) into transitional reading and writing and ENG 101 courses.
Year 3 (2022-23) introduces a co-requisite approach to transitional writing (via ENG 012) and a focused
transitional reading course (RDG 100). Please connect with the Student Success Center staff in Room 770 or the
Learning Resource Center Staff in Room 1001 for details on support services offered. Note there is also a direct
