| III. Instructional Processes*: | |||||||||
| Students will: | |||||||||
| 1. | Participate in classroom discussions which challenge their abilities to think creatively and visualize complex spatial and mathematical relationships to solve problems. Mathematics Outcome | ||||||||
| 2. | Work in teams to conduct laboratory experiments and also to solve special problem assignments. These activities are designed to foster interpersonal skills in teamwork and develop and enhance leadership skills, students' abilities to express ideas, and students' abilities to reach consensus solutions for the team through negotiation. Communication Outcome; Mathematics Outcome; Active Learning Strategy | ||||||||
| 3. | Use electronic test equipment to test electrical circuits constructed from schematics in the laboratory and acquire data. Use computers with applications software to simulate, analyze, and predict the behavior of electrical circuits. Compare expected responses to experimental responses of electrical circuits. Use the Internet for special assignments such as locating data sheets on electronic components. Use computers with word processing software to prepare reports. Technological Literacy Outcome; Mathematics Outcome | ||||||||
| 4. | Prepare reports on laboratory experiments which include methodology, mathematical analyses of electrical circuit models, a comprehensive comparison of calculated results with experimental results, and conclusions. Communication Outcome; Mathematics Outcome; Technological Literacy Outcome | ||||||||
| *Strategies and outcomes listed after instructional processes reference TBR’s goals for strengthening general education knowledge and skills, connecting coursework to experiences beyond the classroom, and encouraging students to take active and responsible roles in the educational process. | |||||||||

| V. Evaluation: | |||||||||
| A. Testing Procedures: 35% of grade | |||||||||
| 20%
- Quiz and lab grades will be averaged to provide 20% of final grade.
15% - Comprehensive exam will provide 15% of final grade. |
|||||||||
| B. Laboratory Expectations: 65% of grade | |||||||||
| 40%
- Completion of the Trainer will provide 40% of the final grade.
25% - Completion of the Trainer Lab Report will provide 25% of the final grade. This report will be graded on content, grammar, spelling, and form. Students may cooperate and assist each other in the construction of the Trainer. All tests and the lab report are individual work and must be done by each student without assistance. Each week the student could be given a grade based on mastery of lab practices. This could be combined with test to determine the grade. |

| 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. Class Attendance for Lab: Attendance is required to all lab sessions unless excused by the instructor. Students missing more than four unexcused sessions will receive an "F" and no credit will be received. Students tardy past half an hour will be considered absent. | |||||||||
| B. Academic and Classroom Misconduct: | |||||||||
| Academic misconduct committed either directly or indirectly by an individual or group is subject to disciplinary action. Prohibited activities include but are not limited to the following practices: Cheating, including but not limited to unauthorized assistance from material, people, or devices when taking a test, quiz, or examination; writing papers or reports; solving problems; or completing academic assignments. In addition to other possible disciplinary sanctions that may be imposed as a result of academic misconduct, the instructor has the authority to assign either (1) an F or zero for the assignment or (2) an F for the course. | |||||||||
| C. Accommodations for Disabilities: | |||||||||
| If
you need accommodations because of a disability, if you have emergency medical
information to share, or if you need special arrangements in case the building
must be evacuated, please inform the instructor immediately (privately after
