● The cell phone policy will be discussed as a class and researched as to what policies are used in various educational settings. Cell phones and other electronics are prohibited in the classroom at all times unless you have visited with the instructor previously. If these technologies are used in the classroom without the instructor’s prior permission, the student will be asked to leave the class. ● Be respectful of other students, technicians, instructors, and guests. ● Ground rules will be established by the group. Student Email Policy: Dakota College at Bottineau is increasingly dependent upon email as an official form of communication. A student’s campus-assigned email address will be the only one recognized by the campus for official mailings. The liability for missing or not acting upon important information conveyed via campus email rests with the student. Academic Integrity: The academic community is based on honesty, integrity, and fair play. It is expected that all students, as members of the college community, adhere to the highest levels of academic integrity. Dishonesty in the classroom and with assignments, quizzes, and exams is a serious offense and is subject to disciplinary action by the instructor and college administration. For more information, please refer to the Student Handbook. ● Students are responsible for submitting their own work. Violations of academic principles such as cheating, plagiarism, and other academic improprieties will be handled according to the guidelines outlined in the Student Handbook. "Faculty members have the prerogative of determining the penalty for prohibited academic conduct in their classes. Faculty members may fail the student for the particular assignment, test, or course involved, or they may recommend that the student drop the course in question, or these penalties may be varied with the gravity of the offense and the circumstances of the particular case." ● Students must not cooperate on oral or written exams or quizzes or work collaboratively on other assignments unless authorized by the instructor. Students will hand in assignments and assessments on the due date specified. ● Completion of the assigned readings is imperative to your professional development. ● Students are expected to attend class and participate in class discussions. Attendance and participation may be factored into your final grade. The student is responsible for the information presented in class whether they are in attendance or not. Confidentiality: The experiences or problems shared by classmates during class time should not be discussed outside of class. This is part of the professional code of ethics.
