This course is being taught entirely over the Internet. As a result, it is critical that you keep up with the work and turn assignments in when due. Grades for Assignments and Study Questions are based on completeness, timeliness and references to Internet sources (this is an Internet class). If you have a name change during the semester, notify your instructor immediately. Exams will not be returned to you. Should you wish to review your exam, please schedule an appointment to do so. Any questions over grades should be resolved before that time. |
|||||||||||||||||
|
|
|||||||||||||||||
| Make-up exams will be allowed only in extenuating circumstances. Every effort should be made to take the test as scheduled. All make-ups must have the instructor's approval. If the make-up exam is missed, you must inform the instructor immediately. Should you not contact the instructor, you may be dropped from the course with a "W". Should you schedule a make-up examination and fail to appear at the designated time, a grade of zero will be assigned for the test. | |||||||||||||||||
|
|
|||||||||||||||||
| Because
the primary mode of instruction is via the Internet and students will not
attend classes, the instructor will monitor students' submission of assigned
materials on a regular basis. Therefore, if students fail to complete assigned
work or major tests, they will be dropped from the course. In order to drop
an Internet course, you must obtain a withdrawal form from the professor
and submit the form to the Office of Admission and Records.
A student absent the equivalent of two weeks of instruction in a regular semester may be dropped by the instructor for excessive absences. Therefore, any student not submitting any of the required work by January 26 ( the equivalent of 6 classroom hours) will be dropped from the course with a grade of "W". |
