General Course Policies:
You may complete the course labs but you do not need to submit them.
Tests are on-line and may be taken after they are posted. You may repeat a chapter quiz for a higher
grade. You may not retake the Final Exam. You may not work with another student, also
assessments are timed. Different people get different versions of the quizzes, so it won't help you
anyway.
All of your coursework must be completed by the last course day (as noted in the Course Schedule).
Your instructor must submit your final course grade to the Brookhaven Registrar on the next day, so it
will do you no good to submit work or take a test after that point.
Grades in the online gradebook are posted for your convenience and may not actual grade in the
course. If you have questions regarding your grade please contact your instructor.
Coursework submitting without the proper header, see grading rubric, will not be graded and receive
a zero in the gradebook.
