In a rare situation where the exam can not be made up in that time period, the student will be given an exam that is different than that taken by the rest of the class. Final Exam - The final exam will be worth 20% of your final grade. Homework – The homework schedule can be found at http://faculty.kirkwood.edu/site/index.php?p=18775 . Homework will be worth 20% of your final grade. Labs - Labs will be worth 25% of your final grade. THERE WILL BE NO MAKE UP LABS!!! Class Room Participation, and Professional Conduct Points will be deducted from the your final grade for the following: 1. Inappropriate language or jokes. 2. Ringing of cell phones in class. 3. Disrupting the class. 4. Leaving class early. 5. Not cleaning up workspace at the end of the class. After earning the Associates of Applied Science in Electronics Engineering Technology at Kirkwood Community College, you may be working with people from substantially different backgrounds than your own. Since the Electronics Engineering Technology program is a career tech program, respect for differences in the workplace will be a skill that will be fostered in this program. You will be expected to show respect for those from different nationalities, religions, gender, sexual orientations, and learning abilities. This respect is expected during class, between class, and after class. In other words, anytime you are in Jones Hall or its vicinity (i.e. - parking lot, sidewalks, etc.). These are the same expectations that some area employers have. Your classroom participation grade will be negatively impacted by 10% (one letter grade) for each violation of this policy. How final grades are determined: As described above.
