Attendance Policy Classroom attending addendums and enriches text stuffs through movies. slides. talks. and treatments.
In add-on. category treatments suffer without each pupil nowadays. since all point of views in treatment are of import. Class attending and promptness are of import. TCC’s Catalog provinces. “All pupils enrolled in the College are expected to go to all categories. since regular attending and regular application constitute the two most important factors that promote success in college work. Until midterm during autumn. spring and summer C footings. any pupil absent from any category for more clip than that category meets in any one hebdomad ( i. e. . two categories ) may be withdrawn by administrative action ( AW class ) . ”
Tardiness and/or go forthing category early both disrupts the continuity of the category and reduces other students’ battle with the stuff. Both. therefore. will be counted as absences. Since late reachings and early goings constitute category perturbations. each case of tardiness to and early going from this category will be counted as an absence from an full category session. Consequently. Students WHO ARE TARDY OR WHO LEAVE EARLY — FOR ANY REASON. INCLUSIVE OF BATHROOM USAGE — ON MORE THAN A TOTAL OF FIVE OCCASIONS PRIOR TO THE WITHDRAWAL DEADLINE WILL Be Capable TO ADMINISTRATIVE WITHDRAWAL.
Students SHOULD Arrive ON TIME AND POWER OFF THEIR CELL PHONES BEFORE CLASS BEGINS. Eight absences will take down your concluding class in this class one full missive class. A pupil with nine absences will automatically neglect the class. There will be no differentiation made between excused and unexcused absences. so plan your absences sagely. 2 STUDENTS SHOULD ARRIVE ON TIME AND POWER OFF THEIR CELL PHONES BEFORE CLASS BEGINS. OBLIGATIONS I. Exams Students will be responsible for executing good on three tests.
The class will be divided into three units. and a non-cumulative scrutiny will be administered at the decision of each unit. All three tests will be comprised of slide designation. multiple pick. matching. short reply. and true/false inquiries. Students should convey a # 2 pencil on the day of the months of the tests.
IF FOR ANY LEGITIMATE REASON A STUDENT IS UNABLE TO TAKE AN EXAM ON THE ASSIGNED DATE. HE/SHE MUST NOTIFY THE INSTRUCTOR BEFOREHAND. Otherwise. no make-up test will be administered. and neglecting to take an test will ensue in an “F” for the class. The key to making good on the tests: go toing category. taking notes. and analyzing diligently. Each test will include 20 % excess recognition. II. Writing Assignments Students will be responsible for subjecting a sum of three essays ( 600-650 words each ) .
Each one of the three essays corresponds with each one of the 3 tests. and each of the three essays will be a response to prompts aligned with each unit/exam — that is. each of the three essay assignments must be related to the readings for each test. Further instructions and the essays’ prompts will be posted on BlackBoard.
The due day of the months are specified on the calendar at the decision of this course of study. Note: Students must finish successfully a short grammar quiz before subjecting each of the three essays. Essaies may include MLA prescribed in-text commendations. That is. if you quote or paraphrase from a beginning. you must parenthetically mention that beginning after the quotation mark or paraphrasis.
Besides. you will necessitate to include a Works Cited page. ***If you plagiarize. your essay will have a nothing. and your overall class will drop to an F. Grading Each of the student’s three tests and the authorship assignments will have a missive class: 100-90 = A ; 89-80 = B ; 79-70 = C ; 69-54 = D ; 53-0 = F. & gt ; The three test classs will each number 30 % . numbering 90 per centum of the student’s concluding class class ; and the three essay classs entire 10 per centum of the concluding class class.
*Failure to subject an test or essay will ensue in an F for the class. * 3 A student’s first-class attending. promptness. Discussion Board engagement. and attitude ( citizenship ) can number up to 10 % ++ “extra credit” toward the concluding test class. Conversely. a student’s hapless attending. hapless promptness. and hapless citizenship/attitude ( which includes speaking. texting. & A ; “acting out” in category ) can impact negatively the concluding test class. Tardiness or go forthing early will be counted as an absence and will therefore contradict a student’s excess recognition for that peculiar category.
