| VI. Policies: | |||||||||
| A. Attendance Policy: | |||||||||
| Pellissippi State Technical Community College expects students to attend all scheduled instructional activities. As a minimum, students in all courses must be present for at least 75 percent of their scheduled class and laboratory meetings in order to receive credit for the course. Individual departments/programs/ disciplines, with the approval of the vice president of Academic and Student affairs, may have requirements that are more stringent. | |||||||||
| B. Academic Dishonesty: | |||||||||
| Plagiarism, cheating, and other forms of academic dishonesty are prohibited. A student guilty of academic misconduct, either directly or indirectly through participation or assistance, is immediately responsible to the instructor of the class. In addition to other possible disciplinary sanctions that may be imposed through the regular Pellissippi State Procedures, as a result of academic misconduct, the instructor has the authority to assign an F or zero for the exercise or examination or to assign an F in the course. | |||||||||
| C. Other Policies: | |||||||||
| A readiness
test on units, data representation and composition measurements will be
administered during the first week. It will count as one homework quiz
and may be taken as many times as you wish during the first week of the
course (only the last grade counts). Chapters 1-3 of the text and
the online study guide provide further information on these topics.
There will be six Module Tests (hour tests) during the term, built around the course learning objectives. Students who do not demonstrate achievement of all learning objectives on the Module Tests may be subject to further testing on the objectives that caused them trouble. |
