Make-up work
Work missed due to absence, including being tardy or leaving early will be ineligible for grades. The PD will
determine the method for making up required course components like labs and competencies. Classwork is defined
as any lab, competency, quiz, activity, or discussion that occurs during scheduled class hours.
Students who ask to complete work, including tests, prior to an expected absence, will not be penalized, if all missed
work is completed prior to the absence or on the student’s first day back to class. Any work not completed by or on
the student’s first day back in class will be penalized.
Tutoring
Tutoring will be scheduled at the discretion of the instructor or Academic Dean.
Exams & Quizzes
An exam missed as a result of an absence may be made up within 5 regularly scheduled school days. The student
must initiate the request to reschedule on the first day s/he returns. It is the student’s responsibility to schedule time
outside the student’s regularly scheduled class hours to take a missed exam. Not rescheduling on the day of return,
or not appearing for the rescheduled time will result in an automatic zero (0). An exam taken after the course’s
original exam scheduled date will have its grade reduced by one letter grade. A student arriving late for a test or quiz
will only be given the remaining time allotted for taking the test or quiz to answer as many questions as s/he can.
Additional time will not be given in order to complete the test or quiz.
Quizzes cannot be made up. Quizzes and tests may include material from any previously taught material in this
course. The final exam will be comprehensive.
MAINTAINING SATISFACTORY ATTENDANCE STATUS
Attendance is mandatory. All absences are unexcused. Review your school catalog for specifics of satisfactory
attendance, probation and terms of dismissal.
STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES
Students are expected to abide by the policies established in the school catalog. Dress code is to be followed as
outlined in catalog.
If you miss a class, it is up to you to obtain a copy of any notes from your fellow classmates and/ or request any
handouts or missed work from the instructor. It is also courteous and professional to call the school and inform the
instructor, PD and/or Dean of your absence, just as you would an employer.
This course will require a great deal of individual effort. If, for any reason, you are experiencing problems in this
course, please speak with the instructor immediately. Do not let any problem continue to grow until it is too late or
unmanageable.
In addition to class time, you are expected to spend time outside of class time on assignments and activities to help
you achieve the course objectives. Your outside class time should be spent reading the textbook materials,
developing outlines and notes for exam preparation, memorizing theory, and practicing application of theory.
Suggestions for study include complete the chapter activities in the textbook, utilize the web resources associated
with the text, and perform any other practice as assigned by the instructor. Details of weekly activities will be in
your course schedule.
