Course Standards: The textbook will be the basis for most activities in this course. Selected reading assignments may be given to supplement the topics covered. Software will be required for the assignments. I recommend a word processing software such as Word. Do not use MSWorks, MS Access will be necessary for some assignments. Microsoft PowerPoint will also be required to view the slide presentations or you can view them online, you may download the viewer (if necessary) from the Student Course Tools section. To use PowerPoint, use the left mouse button to advance the slides or you may use the right mouse button for menu options. Arrows are also available to use the slides. Academic Integrity: The academic community is operated on the basis of honesty, integrity and fair play. Occasionally, this trust is violated when cheating occurs, either inadvertently or deliberately. This Code will serve as the guideline for cases where cheating, plagiarism or other academic improprieties have occurred. The primary responsibility of the students, faculty and administration is to create an atmosphere where the honesty of individuals will not be questioned. Faculty members are responsible for providing guidelines concerning cheating and plagiarism at the beginning of each course, and should use precautionary measures and security in cases where cheating is likely to occur. My policy is that instances of academic dishonesty will result in a 0% for the first offense of a compromised assignment or test in question. A second infraction will result in an overall Failing grade. Students are responsible for submitting their own work. Students who cooperate on oral or written examinations or work without authorization share the responsibility for violation of academic principles and the students are subject to disciplinary action even when one of the students is not enrolled in the course where the violation occurred. The faculty member and the administration are responsible for procedural fairness to the accused
