| V. Evaluation: | |||||||||
| A. Drafting Exercises: 60% of grade | |||||||||
| The major component of this course will be drafting exercises. These exercises will assist in improving and perfecting the student's drafting skills while at the same time providing valuable information on design and construction methods. | |||||||||
| B. Quizzes: 20% of grade | |||||||||
| Announced quizzes will be given throughout the semester. The information covered on each quiz will be announced in class prior to the quiz. A quiz cannot be made-up for any reason. | |||||||||
| C. Final Project: 20% of grade | |||||||||
| The final project will incorporate information you have "absorbed" throughout the semester. | |||||||||
| D. Grade Breakdown: | |||||||||
| Projects
......................................... 60%
Quizzes .......................................... 20% Final Project .................................... 20% TOTAL ............................................ 100% |
|||||||||
| E. Grading Scale: | |||||||||
| A
= 90-100 C+ = 77-79
D = 57-59
B+ = 87-89 C = 70-76 F = Below 56 B = 80-86 D+ = 67-69 |
|||||||||
| VI. Policies: | |||||||||
| A. Attendance Policy: | |||||||||
| Class attendance for the full period is mandatory for all students. A significant portion of each project phase or aspect must be completed in class in order to receive credit for the work. You are responsible for all materials and information given during class. In the event of an absence, information about upcoming classes should be obtained from fellow classmates or the instructor prior to the next class period. Attendance will be taken only at the beginning of the class.Parking problems, car problems, and work conflicts do not constitute excused absences. You will be marked late at five minutes after the class is scheduled to begin. Habitual tardiness will result in the lowering of your final grade with FIVE tardies being equal to an absence. An absence (excused or unexcused) does not constitute reason for non-submittal of a project or exercise which is due on the day of the absence. If a project or exercise is due the next class period following an absence (excused or unexcused) you are still responsible for completion of such. Two unexcused absences are permitted without penalty. Students having three unexcused absences will receive a penalty of one letter grade for the semester. Students having more than three unexcused absences will receive an automatic failing grade for the semester. Verification for an excused absence must be submitted to the instructor upon return to class after the absence. The instructor will not request your excuse but will consider the absence unexcused if documentation is not provided. | |||||||||
| B. Academic Dishonesty: | |||||||||
| In keeping with college-wide policies, the student is expected to adhere to the general rules and regulations relevant to academic and classroom misconduct as outlined in the catalog. | |||||||||
