EVALUATION TECHNIQUES:
A. Testing: Both MidTerm and Final Tests shall consist of a drawing project and a theory test. However,
several quizzes may be given as course scheduling permits.
B. Lab/Homework: Assignments will be given as drawing projects as class proceeds and will be due at the
beginning of the next scheduled class unless otherwise instructed.
C. Grading System: Point System. Each assignment (drawing, test, or oral class participation) earns a certain
amount of points. The total points earned by the end of the semester will reflect the letter grade by a
percentage of the total points possible.
ATTENDANCE: Class attendance records will be maintained. It is the responsibility of the student to inform
the instructor in cases of late arrival.
LATE ASSIGNMENTS AND MAKE-UP WORK:
A. Assignments are listed on the Tentative Class Schedule.
B. Completed homework is due the day of and prior to the start of the test for specific chapters covered.
This is the only time homework will be accepted. Late homework will not be accepted.
C. There will be no make-up for labs, quizzes or homework missed. Students that stop participating in the
course and fail to withdraw may receive a course grade of “F,” which may have financial aid
consequences.
Course Withdrawal: Friday, April 12, 2013.
The deadline to withdraw from a course shall not exceed 3/4 the duration of any class. Check the
TCC Academic Calendar for the deadline that applies to the course(s). Begin the process with a
discussion with the faculty member assigned to the course. Contact the Advisement Office at any
TCC campus to initiate withdrawal from a course ('W' grade) or to change from Credit to Audit.
Withdrawal and/or change to an audit from a course after the drop/add period can alter the financial
aid award for the current and future semesters. Students may receive an outstanding bill from TCC
if the recalculation leaves a balance due to TCC. Students who stop participating in the course and
fail to withdraw may receive a course grade of “F,” which may have financial aid consequences for
the student.
