COMPUTER SERVICES ACCEPTABLE USE
Access to computing resources is a privilege granted to all TCC faculty, staff, and students. Use
of TCC computing resources is limited to purposes related to the College’s mission of education,
research, and community service. Student use of technology is governed by the Computer

FACET AND LEARNING SUPPORT SERVICES
Call Technical Support at 918-595-2000
The following services are available at the designated locations on the TCC college campuses to
assist the student in this course:
You have access to English specialists who can tutor you on your writing at any TCC campus.
Some campus writing centers require you to make an appointment, but you do not need to make an
appointment at the FACET Center at Northeast Campus.
You may submit your writing assignments to an English specialist or tutor in the FACET Center at
Northeast Campus. See the instructions on enrolling in the NEC FACET Center organization site on
Blackboard. You will find the instructions in course information.
2
The TCC Northeast Campus FACET Center combines instructional technology with
individualized instruction and resources for refining skills in math, writing, speaking, research,
and computers. The FACET Center is located in the Enterprise Building.
Finally, all TCC campuses have writing, math, and computer labs where you can speak with a
tutor.
TEACHING METHODS
To facilitate the classroom participation, we will use Discussion Board as a means of
communication. Points will be given for each “discussion” to ensure a larger number of
participation. Each “discussion,” whether under Discussions or Journal, I will guide students with
student self-assessment, exercises and questions to be answered, and create a conversation
amongst students by writing posts and replies to other students. I will post videos, assignments,
and computer relevant tasks on our Blackboard page. Under the Course Information tab on
Blackboard I will set up tests, assignments, and essay assignments. Students will keep an online
calendar to keep as an academic planner. Finally, I will create a weekly schedule for each week,
specifically stating what is required for students to succeed.
ATTENDANCE – TIME COMMITMENT – STUDENT EXPECTATIONS
Attendance (regular participation in the online classroom) is essential for maintaining the best
learning environment. Learning occurs in relationship not only between student and course
materials, but, as importantly, peer to peer, professor to student, and student to professor.
For an 8 week course, you are expected to log into course at least four times a week (and
weekends if you wish). Attendance will be monitored by Blackboard. It is set up to
record when you log in.
NOTE: This Internet class demands that the student be self-motivated and self-disciplined.
You are responsible for keeping up with the schedule, assignments, and exams. I will be
contacting you throughout the semester by email, and Blackboard is available at all times. If
you email me and do not have a response from me in twenty-four hours, you should follow
up the email with a phone call to my office, 918-595-8425. I answer email as quickly as
possible. Sometimes email does go astray due to human error or technological glitches. In the
email message, include a subject heading in the email and in the email itself a salutation, your
full name and the name of the course you are taking. Include your full name at the end of the
email message to me. Unless you include your name at the end, I have no way of knowing
whether you have completed the message.
TCC Distance Learning Office requires that you take an Internet Orientation.

11.
ASK for help when you need help
Required software: Microsoft Office, 2007/2010
You will need to have an appropriate word processing program for this class:
Microsoft Word 2007 or 2010. Microsoft Works and Wordpad will NOT suffice;
assignments in those word processing programs will not/cannot be graded. TCC
provides Microsoft Office 2010 FREE to all students. See Student Resources tab in
Blackboard for instructions on downloading Microsoft Office 2010. Having the
appropriate word processing program for this class is vital because your documents
must maintain formatting, especially to conform to Modern Language Association
(MLA) style. If you need help, call 918/595-2000, the TCC Helpdesk.
TECHNICAL SKILL REQUIREMENTS
Students who enroll in this online class should have basic computer skills: know how to save files
and send attachments. Students must also have an up-to-date version of Microsoft Word. See
“Required Software” above.
Students should be comfortable with the following:
 using a word processor (changing fonts, spell check, indenting)
 using email for communication
 sending file attachments whether in the Blackboard site or email
 navigating the Internet
 downloading appropriate plugins
 using an Internet search engine (see below)
TCC PLAGIARISM POLICY
Deliberate plagiarism is claiming, indicating, or implying that the words, ideas, or sentences of
another writer are one's own. It includes having another writer do work claimed to be your own,
copying the work of another and presenting it as your own, or following the work of another as a
guide to ideas and expression that are then presented as one's own. The student should review the
relevant sections of the TCC Student Code of Conduct Policy Handbook. In the case of academic
dishonesty a faculty member may: (i) require the student to redo an assignment or test, or require
the student to complete a substitute assignment or test; (ii) record a "zero" for the assignment or
test in question; (iii) recommend to the student that the student withdraw from the class, or
administratively withdraw the student from the class; and (iv) record a grade of "F" for the
student at the end of the semester. DELIBERATE PLAGIARISM WILL RESULT IN
FAILING MY CLASS, NO QUESTIONS, AND NO NEGOTIATIONS.
ACADEMIC DISHONESTY OR MISCONDUCT
Academic dishonesty or misconduct is not condoned or tolerated at campuses within the Tulsa
Community College system. Academic dishonesty is behavior in which a deliberately fraudulent
misrepresentation is employed in an attempt to gain underserved intellectual credit, either for
4
oneself or for another. Academic misconduct is behavior that results in intellectual advantage
obtained by violating specific standard, but without deliberate intent or use of fraudulent means.
The student should review the relevant sections of the TCC Student Code of Conduct Policy
Handbook.
SUBMITTING ASSIGNMENTS
All assignments (outside of discussions, journals, and academic calendar) are to be submitted
though Submit Here in the Blackboard classroom. Your graded assignments will be returned
through Blackboard. If you submit an assignment and realize that you need to make a change,
email me that you have submitted your assignment, but that you need to make an important
change to the file. You may attach the corrected file in the email message. I will, however, clear
the attempt so that you may submit the file in assignment again. You must email me within
twenty-four hours of first submitting the assignment in order to receive this second chance.
If, because of a College-wide problem with Blackboard, you are unable to access the
Blackboard server to turn in your assignment, please email it to me: sloan.davis@tulsacc.edu
with an explanation of why you are sending the file through the email. I will accept assignments
by email only during emergency situations. In the message, make sure you include a subject
heading in the email and in the email itself a salutation, your full name and the name of the
course you are taking. I do not read emails with no subject headings; in fact, I delete them as
potential virus spreaders. Also, I use Blackboard for all of my classes, both online and oncampus, so I need to know which class you are taking. Unless you include your full name at the
end of the email, I have no way of knowing if the email is complete, or if you might have
pressed the send button prematurely.
If your personal computer crashes or is otherwise unavailable, that does not absolve you of
your work in this online class. TCC provides computer labs on all four campuses; as an
online student, you may work in those computer labs. Public libraries also offer limited
access to computers with Internet connection. TCC also has an agreement with OSU-Tulsa
for TCC students to use computers and the library at OSU-Tulsa. Check with OSU-Tulsa
for the hours: http://www.osu-tulsa.okstate.edu/library/Hours.htm, or 918/594-8130.
MAKE-UP AND LATE ASSIGNMENT/EXAM POLICY
Every 24 hours an assignment is late 20 points will be deducted. Assignments are due by
Friday at midnight at the end of each week. If, for whatever reason, you miss a test, you must
email me and explain your reason. We might have to meet in person and you might have to
have documentation. Most times, I will not allow make-up tests.
MAC USERS
If you have a Mac computer, you must make sure the assignment files you create to send have an
extension on them: Harper_Collier.doc or Harper_Collier.docx. Without the extension, the work
CANNOT be graded which will result in a zero on the assignment. Follow the steps below if you
are not familiar with adding the extension:
Step I: If you can, save the file on your Mac using the same program (such as Microsoft Word or
Excel) as you'll be using on the PC. Make sure to add the three-letter file extension (such as
“.doc”) when saving the file.
Step 2: If you don't have the same program in Mac and PC versions, try saving your file in a
common format, such as Rich Text Format (RTF), which most word processors can read.
5
Step 3: If the first two options don't work, buy a conversion program for your PC to translate Mac
file formats.
REVIEWING GRADED WORK
To review your graded work, follow the steps below:
Option 1:
1. Log into Bb
2. Click on My Grades button
3. Click the grade next to the name of the assignment
4. Look for the returned file under Review Submission History
5. Open the file and read the comments; save the file to your computer or flashdrive
6. Refer to those comments to help you as you continue working in the course
7. Ask questions if you do not understand the comments or need clarification
Option 2:
1. Log into Bb
2. Click on Submit Here button
3. Click on the name of the assignment such as E1
4. Locate the returned file, open it, read the comments
5. Refer to those comments to help you as you continue working in the course
6. Ask questions if you do not understand the comments or need clarification
Put the comments into a Word document and use them as a checklist for revising your work.
Add other items that you know you need to work on.
USING THE DISCUSSION BOARD
No inappropriate language or content will be tolerated. If the posting could be construed as
including sexual, ethnic or other types of harassment, the student will be removed from the
discussion board and reported to the Dean of Students. Post your own material unless you wish
to quote a passage; in that case, you must clearly identify where you found the passage. See the
section on plagiarism for further information.
COMMUNICATING WITH THE INSTRUCTOR
I check my email frequently and will respond to you as quickly as I can, usually within twentyfour hours. I also expect to return your graded work as quickly as possible. Usually that means
you will receive it in seven days, or fewer. If you email me and you do not receive a response
in three days, you need to phone me at 918/595-8425 because of the likelihood that your
email has not reached me. Check the announcement page for any updates or special news that
may arise. Always include a subject heading in emails you send me, a greeting, and your full
name in the email even though the TCC email address identifies you. Unless you add your name
to the end of the email, I cannot be sure you have completed the email or perhaps have pressed
the send button too quickly. You must check your TCC email account frequently; I will
communicate with you by email to your TCC account. You may have the TCC email forwarded
to an account you check often. See the Student Resources tab for instructions.
WRITING EMAILS
You should consider email in the same way you would consider a business memorandum. Use
correct spelling, grammar, usage, and sentence structure. In addition, communicate clearly and
concisely, using appropriate word choices and tone. In Simon and Schuster Handbook for
6
Writers, Lynn Troyka and Doug Hesse indicate, “Tone is more than what you say; tone is how
you say it” (15).
Maintain or enhance your professional credibility with the image you present in your writing.
Your email to your instructor should follow the same guidelines. Never write anything in any
email that you would not be willing to have circulated among a number of other people.
Email is not private, and a few employees have been fired for inappropriate email messages.
Include your class identification in the subject line: Engl 1003. Begin the email with a greeting,
type your message in complete sentences, using proper punctuation, capitalization, and correct
grammar. End the email with your name, first and last.
ONLINE CLASSROOM ETIQUETTE
Students are expected to display tolerance for others’ views on the Blogs, Discussion Board,
Wikis and through emails. Comments and language should be respectful and appropriate for a
college community.

Title of Paper
Begin here…
The “A” paper meets all the course objectives (Note: it may contain a few minor
deficiencies), shows originality of thought, fulfills the requirements of the assignment, and
contains no serious errors in mechanics. The “A” paper exhibits outstanding work.
The “B” paper meets all the course objectives (Note: it may contain a few minor
deficiencies), fulfills the requirements of the assignments, and contains no serious errors in
mechanics. The “B” paper exhibits above average work.
The “C” paper attempts to meet all the course objectives but falls short in certain areas,
fulfills the requirements of the assignments, and may contain a very few serious errors in
mechanics. The “C” paper exhibits average work.
The “D” paper attempts to meet all the course objectives but falls short in certain areas,
fulfills the requirements of the assignments, and may contain serious errors in mechanics.
The “F” paper attempts to meet all the course objectives but falls short in certain areas
and may contain serious errors in mechanics.
Serious Errors in Mechanics:
1. Unjustified Sentence Fragment
2. Comma Splice
3. Fused Sentences
4. Semicolon Separating an Independent and a Dependent Clause
5. Confused Pronoun Reference
6. Wrong Pronoun Case
7. Excessive Errors in Spelling and Punctuation
W, AW, I, and F Grades
8
A "W": A Withdrawal (W) is initiated by student up to 3/4 through the course. The last 1/4 of
the course, students receive their earned grade.
Course Withdrawal: 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.
An "F" versus "AW": Attendance is the first requirement for students to continue to receive
financial aid, defer student loans, and/or stay on parents’ insurance. When deciding whether to
record a grade of “F” versus a grade of “AW,” I consider whether the student has attended at least
3/4 of class to earn the “F” or was excessively absent and did not earn the “F.”
Incomplete (I) Grades: Grades of “I” are awarded sparingly. “I” grades are reserved for
students who have attended class regularly and participated satisfactorily (completed successfully
the majority of the work), but have a one-time dire documented circumstance at the end of the
course that hinders them from completing the course. I do not award a grade of “I” for a student
who has been excessively absent or for a student who is failing the class.
Note: The syllabus may change as needed. Any changes in schedule will be announced in class. It
is your responsibility to note all changes announced by the professor.

TENTATIVE COURSE SCHEDULE
**Literature Craft &Voice=LCV
Instructions: read carefully.

Note: schedule might change depending on the needs of this class. Also, understand
