Course Structure:
This course will be using a format that consists of three required components: 1) Textbook reading, 2) Class
attendance and participation in discussions, and 3) Completion of all course assignments (quizzes, tests,
paper, presentation).
Attendance and Participation 5%:
Class participation and attendance is essential. This class is based on student contribution and
discussion. Students will be expected to physically and mentally attend class – this means that you
thoroughly complete the assigned reading assignments, bring in the text, and have thoughts or
questions about what we are covering. Attendance and participation will be recorded each class.
Chapter Quizzes 20%:
Chapter quizzes will be given to ensure that students are 1) keeping up with textbook and article
readings outside of class and 2) are clearly understanding classroom content and discussion. Quizzes
will consist of multiple-choice questions, which will include material from lectures and textbook
readings.
Tests 30%:
There will be three exams. The format will be part short-answer questions part multiple choice
questions. Any material discussed or covered in class or in readings can be tested.
Final Research Presentation 20%:
For the final, students will present a research presentation on one psychological topic related to the
course (life span development). This presentation will require substantial research and presentation
skills. This includes a presentation with slides in APA format (including in-text citations and a
bibliography slide).
Observation Papers 20%:
Students will submit four observation case study papers. Each case study examines a different life
stage: Infancy, childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Each paper is a separate assignment and will
be accompanied by a handout with instructions and a rubric.
The instructor reserves the right to modify the syllabus and schedule as needed. You will be notified of changes.
Veltri (PSY 235)
Make-up Policy:
 Make-up policy is 2 days for every 1 day out for an excused absence only. If submission of work
surpasses the time the make-up policy, then the late-policy will take effect (see below for late-policy).

If a student is aware that they have missed a quiz or exam due to an excused absence (if it has been
announced and is in writing), the student must take the quiz/exam the day they return to class and NO
later than the 2nd class day they return.

If a student has an unexcused absence the instructor is NOT required to provide a make-up policy. In
this case, the late-policy will take effect.

Students and parents will have 3 days to excuse an absence. NOTE: there is no distinction between
excused and unexcused absence at the college level.
Late Work Policy:
 Submitting late work must be arranged with the teacher. Otherwise, it is at the discretion of the
teacher to accept the work
 All work is due at the beginning of class, otherwise it is late
 Each class period that work is late = 10% off
 Late work is 10% off each day
 Late work is accepted up to 2 weeks late, after which it becomes a ZERO
o 1 class period = 10% off
o 2 class periods late = 20% off
o 2 weeks or more late = ZERO
 Students with IEP/504 will be given time and a half (1.5x time) if it is listed in their accommodations
in Infinite Campus
 Late policy flexibility may be given on a case-by-case basis. if more time is needed the student must
take the initiative to arrange a one-on-one meeting with the teacher. They must be prepared to show
what work they have so far completed.
 Extensions will be granted on a case-by-case basis. There are NO EXTENSIONS 24 hours before a deadline.
Plan ahead.


No work will be accepted after classroom instructional days (May 11th). This is intended to encourage
communication between the instructor and student.
Every major assignment/project must be completed for students to pass the class.
It is the responsibility of the student to request makeup work. For absences known about in advance, the
student must meet with Dr. Veltri at least 48 hours prior to their absence(s) in order to make arrangements
regarding the submission of missed work. For excused absences due to illness or family emergency, requests
for make-up work may be done through Teams. Students must meet with Dr. Veltri BEFORE the dude date.
Otherwise, you risk having your work graded as a late submission.
Examination Make-up Policies:
Any student that is granted a request to make-up a test will have an agreed upon due date and time. The
student must abide by this date and time. No additional extensions beyond that date/time will be allowed. If
the make-up test is submitted after this date and time it will be counted as late.
NOTE: Accommodations will be given for students on an IEP or 504 plan according to the student’s plan.
The instructor reserves the right to modify the syllabus and schedule as needed. You will be notified of changes.
Veltri (PSY 235)
Attendance Policy:
Attendance will be taken within the first five minutes of each class; students are expected to be on time. “On
time” means in your seat and prepared. If you are not in your seat at the beginning class time (12.50pm) you
will be marked tardy. If you miss half of the class or more, you will be marked absent unexcused. At the
college level, there is no distinction between excused and unexcused absences. A student may miss up to 4
absences before it affects their grade.
Excused absences can include illness/ injury, medical or legal appointments, or family emergencies.
Excessive excused absences may warrant a meeting with administration. Continued absences will result in
further disciplinary action. Students will not be allowed to make up work for an unexcused absence. This can
affect the student's overall grades.
A college course has a rule of thumb of 2-3 hours of studying per one hour of class time. This may be
enough for some students; others may need more time. It is expected that you do what you need to do in
order to be successful in this class. It is up to you to ask questions in a timely fashion. Waiting until the last
minute is a recipe for disaster. The product of your studying should be that you comprehend the material
and can demonstrate proficiency through classroom discussion and on-time completion of assignments.
Please note, we cannot provide finals ahead of time. Students cannot miss school during finals. Make ups will
only be provided for extenuated circumstances.
Classroom Policies and Expectations:
Students are always required to follow school rules. Students will display a good work ethic and respect for
classmates and adults at all times. Students are expected to work to the best of their ability every day and
reach their full potential. BE PROMPT, BE PREPARED, PARTICIPATE!
*The teacher (Dr. Veltri) will also respect students. This is demonstrated through being approachable,
answering questions, and responding to Teams messages in a timely manner (within 24-48 hours).
Restroom Privileges:
Students must ask permission to use the restroom. Only one student will be allowed out of the classroom at
one time. Students should not spend extended class time outside of the classroom or in the restroom. Abuse of
this policy could limit the ability for students to be excused to use the restroom.
CECCR Remote Class Addendum:
Remote Learning:
Temporary remote access may be granted to a student only under the condition of a positive COVID test
result and quarantine. Remote access will be approved by the school nurse or Academic Dean. Until teachers
have been notified of such circumstances a student will not be given remote learning access.
Temporary remote days may result due to weather or other reasons why the school building must close for a
day. A return to full remote learning may occur in the event of an emergency public health order. Clear
guidelines regarding remote days will be communicated to students and families closer to the time of such
events.
Student Expectations for Remote Classes/Courses:
Students are expected to engage in synchronous class meetings with their cameras on and with the ability to
use the chat function. If students are having technical difficulties, they must reach out to me and/or our tech
support immediately. CEC is providing IT/Tech support for remote learning via email and phone at:
The instructor reserves the right to modify the syllabus and schedule as needed. You will be notified of changes.

Students may only record a class or discussion, including in-person or online classes and discussions, if one
or both of the following conditions have been met (see System President’s Procedures 19-50):
1. The student has an approved disability accommodation, and/or
2. The student has a received written permission from the person teaching the class.
Students cannot download, print, post, or use the course materials in any other way without written
consent from the instructor. Ensure that you ask for permission prior to using or sharing the
intellectual property of the instructor for any other purposes other than completing and understanding
coursework.
Faculty/instructors may record class sessions, including in-person or online classes and discussions. Students
should be informed if classes will be recorded. Class recordings by faculty/instructors are for the use of that
specific class, unless otherwise explicitly approved by the instructor.
Technology Requirements:
Cell phones will be silenced at the beginning of class. Explicit permission to use phones in class must be
given, otherwise they are not to be seen or heard. Failure to do so will result in disciplinary action being
taken.
You will need a computer for this class. Please bring a charger to class as needed. It is imperative that you
download Microsoft Teams on your device. The online version has features that do not work properly and this
may cause issues with the class.
E-mail and Teams Policy:
I check my CEC e-mail and Teams regularly. Response time is typically within 24-48 hours during the week.
Please, do not expect me to respond to emails/Teams during nights and weekends.
The instructor reserves the right to modify the syllabus and schedule as needed. You will be notified of changes.
Veltri (PSY 235)
It is expected that the student communicates with the instructor when at all possible. It is the student’s
responsibility – not parents or CEC administration – to communicate with the instructor about any absence
and to request any make up opportunities.
Tutoring and Student Support Resources:
The Academic Support Center, room 218, has several academic skills coordinators/coaches, a full-time and a
part-time math tutor, part-time writing tutors, and peer tutoring. Please watch for updates and tutor links to
sign-up for sessions in our weekly school newsletter and in your email inbox. A link to schedule tutoring is
available in Teams.
If you are interested in obtaining information to improve writing, study skills, time management or
organization, the following resources are available to all students:

success. ACC provides a wealth of resources designed to make your time here exceptional. Take advantage of
these: ACC Advising & Support Services.
Accommodations Statement:
CECCR will provide accommodations to qualified students with disabilities. To request accommodation,
please contact Mr. Leaman Boyd. It is the responsibility of the student to inform the instructor of any
accommodation in a timely fashion.
To obtain disability-related academic adjustments and/or auxiliary aids, students with disabilities must contact
the course instructor and Exceptional Student Services Unit (ESSU). If you are concerned you have a
disability-related condition that is impacting your academic progress, please speak with your parents, our
ESSU staff, your instructor, or your advisor.
Academic Integrity Statement:
Arapahoe Community College is committed to academic honesty and scholarly integrity. The College can
best function and accomplish its mission in an atmosphere of the highest ethical standards. All members of
the College community are expected and encouraged to contribute to such an environment by observing all
accepted principles of academic honesty. Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to: plagiarism,
cheating, fabrication, grade tampering, misuse of computers and other electronic technology, and
facilitating academic dishonesty. Plagiarism also includes handing in the same paper for more than one
class (self-plagiarism). Students must first discuss and receive written permission from the instructor to use
the same paper in more than one course.
Students are required to know, understand, and comply with ACC’s Academic Dishonesty Policy. Those
found in violation may be subject to disciplinary sanctions under the Arapahoe Community College Code of
Conduct. If you are not familiar with the above definitions of academic dishonesty please see ACC’s Student
Code of Conduct: https://www.arapahoe.edu/about-acc/college-business-services/policies-procedures/ap-430a-student-code-conduct-responsibilities-and-rights. This course assumes your knowledge of these policies
and definitions. Failure to adhere to them can result in possible penalties ranging from failure of this course to

Veltri (PSY 235)
dismissal from ACC; so, be informed and be careful. After reviewing the code of conduct if this is unclear to
you, ask Dr. Veltri.
On-Campus College Courses (College Bridge Courses):
There is zero tolerance for students who violate the academic integrity statement at the college level. At this
level, students may be subject to the professor’s and the administration's consequences, as well as ACC’s
disciplinary sanctions, which may include academic probation, failing the course, or expulsion
(see https://www.cccs.edu/sp-4-30-student-disciplinary-procedure/). The instructor will record the incident
in the student's notes section in Infinite Campus.
CECCR Academic Integrity Addendum:
In addition to following the above ACC Academic Integrity Statement, CECDC has the following policy:
Colorado Early Colleges Douglas County students are expected to conduct themselves ethically in all courses
and assume full responsibility for the content and integrity of the academic work they submit. The guiding
principle of academic integrity will be that a student’s submitted work, examinations, reports, discussions,
and projects must be that of the student’s own work and unique to the course. Consequences will follow any
of the following actions:







Representing the work of others as their own (this includes copying material from the internet for
discussion postings or other assignments without proper citation)
Use of or obtain unauthorized assistance in any academic work
Giving unauthorized assistance to other students
Modifying, without instructor approval, an examination, paper, record, or report for the purpose of
obtaining additional credit
Misrepresenting the content of submitted work
Collaboration. Unless otherwise instructed, all work submitted is to be done individually by the
student. This means you should not be working in pairs or in a group to write discussion posts,
complete assignments, take quizzes, and other assessments unless specifically asked to do so by your
instructor.
Plagiarism/Dual Submission. Plagiarism, whether intentional or accidental, is academic dishonesty
and may incur disciplinary action ranging from receiving a zero on an assignment or failing a course
to more severe consequences. Plagiarism means:
o 1. Using someone else’s ideas and not correctly citing that use. This means that if you put
someone else’s work into your own words, put it in your work, and do not correctly
document it, the idea is plagiarized.
o 2. Using someone else’s words without quotation marks and not correctly citing that use.
o 3. Using someone else’s images or other works (such as from the Internet) without correctly
citing that use.
o 4. Submitting work that has been turned in for credit in another class or at another institution
unless specifically permitted by your instructor.
CECCR has the following consequences regarding an infringement of academic dishonesty:
For College Prep/High School Courses:
The first incident:
Students will receive specific instruction on plagiarism and academic integrity and how to avoid it.
Students are required to use TurnItIn.com for major papers, which allows the instructor to check for
plagiarism and self-plagiarism. If there is an incident of plagiarism, the student will receive one
warning from the instructor and will have the opportunity to redo the paper/project at the
discretion of the instructor. The assignment will be counted as a zero until restorative steps
have been taken and the assignment resubmitted. The instructor will record the incident in the
student's notes section in Infinite Campus and inform the Academic Dean.
The instructor reserves the right to modify the syllabus and schedule as needed. You will be notified of changes.
Veltri (PSY 235)
The second incident:
If the same student engages in academic dishonesty a second time, the student will be referred to
CECCR administration for a meeting with the student's parents, the instructor, and the
administration to determine the consequences, which may include an in-school suspension, a
grade penalty, and/or a failing grade in the course.
Course Evaluations:
As this course nears completion, you may have the opportunity to complete a confidential evaluation of the
class. Your feedback is important and ensures that CECCR and ACC continue to offer quality instruction that
meets your needs. Please take time to complete the survey – I appreciate your feedback.
Mandatory Reporting:
Colorado Early Colleges Castle Rock is committed to preserving a safe and welcoming educational
environment for all students. As part of this effort, I have an obligation to report certain issues relating to the
health and safety of campus community members. I must report to the appropriate school officials any
allegation of discrimination or harassment. Sexual misconduct, which includes sexual harassment, nonconsensual sexual contact, non-consensual sexual intercourse, and sexual exploitation, is considered a form of
discrimination.
