Plagiarism: Plagiarism is a very serious issue in this course. If you plagiarize, you will be given an “F”
for the course.
Posting your Speeches: For the speech portions of Block 4 & 5 (assignments 4.2 and 5.2), you must
upload your speeches to YouTube™ then email me with link where I can view and grade them (Do
NOT put a password on them). It is your responsibility to check your speech before uploading it to
YouTube™. After you have uploaded your speech to YouTube™, it is your responsibility to check it
on YouTube™ to make sure it works. If I open your speech and it is blank, you will receive a “0” for
the speech assignment for either of those blocks.
Late Assignments: ALL ASSIGNMENTS, SPEECHES and QUIZZES ARE DUE by THE DATE AND TIME
LISTED BELOW ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER THIS DATE AND TIME UNLESS
AUTHORIZED BY THE INSTRUCTOR. Sometimes, during the quizzes or exams, Angel or your ISP does
time out. If this occurs, please email me ASAP. Angel shows all attempts, so if you’re late and thinking
this will get the quiz opened for you, it’s not going to happen.
