up that test within 5 business days of the missed assessment. It is the student’s responsibility to notify the instructor that he/she
wants to make up the assessment. If the student fails to make arrangements within 5 business days with the instructor it is
assumed that the student will not make up the assessment and no arrangements will be made. Any missed assessments that are
not made up will receive the grade of 0. Students will not be allowed to re-do assessments that have already been taken. Exams
are not eligible for this; exams will be taken on the dates listed on the syllabus, no exceptions.
e.
Exams: The Midterm and the Final exams are requirements for the course and will be taken on the dates listed on the syllabus.
If a student does not take and complete the Midterm Exam the instructor reserves the right to fail the student in the course; if

SPAN 1110 4A - 2
Required Student Expectations:
1. Class Participation – 15% of final grade: Showing up to class is an important part of the grade, but participation and active
engagement in the class (i.e. in-class speaking activities; participation in pair, group individual activities; in-class written activities,
note-taking, demonstration of class preparedness) are essential. Calculation of the participation grade is up to the discretion of
the instructor and will be based on the student’s level of interaction in class as well as compliance with in-class activities of the
aforementioned examples. Student are encouraged to participate every day, ask questions, take notes and take the initiative in
engaging themselves during class time. Each student will be eligible for 10 class participation points for day.
2.
Attendance Policy- 10% of final grade: Each student may miss two (2) classes (the equivalent of one week) before losing full
attendance points. Any and all absences will negatively affect the student’s attendance & class participation grade!! The
student receives 10 points per day for attendance. The first two (2) absences the student will receive 1/2 of the credit or 5
points. If a student misses part of the class, they will be deducted half points (for example: if a student leaves early from class
the instructor reserves the right to deduct at least 5 points from the daily attendance grade.) Any full or partial absences over
the first full two days (this also includes accumulated partially missed days) the student will receive grade of 0 points for each
subsequent day of absence. The student will also be deducted points for any cumulative full absences as well (i.e. a student
arrives late to two classes; up to 10 points can be deducted.) As a courtesy, please notify the instructor of any anticipated
absence either by phone/voicemail or by e-mail. GENERAL RULE: DON’T MISS CLASS!
3.
After four (4) cumulative absences the instructor reserves the right to fail the student from the course. Six (6) cumulative
absences will result in a failing grade for the course. A failure due to excessive absences will receive a grade of FX, which is
failure due to absences. There is no special consideration for absence due to illness and/or hospitalization.
4.
Keep in mind: You have to attend class to be eligible for class participation points. SO ANY ABSENCE WILL NEGATIVELY AFFECT
THE CLASS PARTICIPATION GRADE AS WELL AS THE ATTENDANCE GRADE. For example, if you attend class and participate, you
are eligible for 20 points. If you leave class early, but have participated, you are eligible for 10 points. If you attend the entire
class but do not participate you are eligible for 10 points. If you don’t attend class you do not receive any points (0).
5.
Expected Classroom Behavior:
 Arrive to class prepared and on-time, with homework completed and previous lessons mastered
 Participate in whole class, individual and small group/ partner activities
 Refrain from using portable electronic devices
 Respect all classmates
 Stay in class until class is finished
6.
Any student who misses a class has assumed the responsibility to gather the information covered in class and the assignment for
the following class. Find two people in the class that you can phone or e-mail for this information.

REFUND POLICIES for Credit Courses
A student is responsible for withdrawing “dropping” from a course(s) if unable to attend. Non-attendance or non-payment does not relieve
a student from the obligation to pay. To withdraw “drop” from a course log on to WebAdvisor https://webadvisor.mccneb.edu and click
“Register and Drop Sections”.
An official schedule change that reduces or terminates a student’s academic credit load may entitle the student to a refund. The eligibility
and amount of a refund is automatically calculated by the date of the withdrawal. A student may see the refund percentage received
through midnight of the same day by logging into WebAdvisor and clicking on the Tuition Refund Calculator. Note: Schedule changes
may have implications for students on Financial Aid. Check with the Financial Aid Office prior to any schedule changes at 457-2330.
