 Student must come to class with all necessary material and books
 Participate in class discussions
EVALUATION METHODS:
Attendance/participation:
(5%) P/F, attendance is required, see ATTENDANCE below
Lecture Grade- AVERAGE OF 5 LECTURE TESTS
FINAL GRADE = 50% Lecture, 50% Lab
A failing average in either Lecture or Lab will result in an F final grade for the course.
ATTENDANCE
Students are expected to attend each lecture and laboratory session on a regular and punctual
basis and to complete assignments in a timely fashion.
All students are allowed one absence.
On the 2nd absence a paper/essay/research assignment on a topic chosen by the instructor. Must
be handed in by last day of class or reduction of final grade by one-half grade.
On the 3rd absence there is a reduction of one full grade.
On the 4th absence the person receives an “F”.
Any missed exam will require an excused absence to make up the exam.
ONLY 1 MAKEUP EXAM ALLOWED PER SEMESTER
TWO DAY TIME LIMIT (FROM DATE OF ORIGINAL EXAM) FOR TAKING A
MAKEUP.
