GRADING:
Students have access to and should review the eCollege grading calculation method. Students are responsible to know
what their grades are during the course. Please review the gradebook frequently. If an eCollege assignment or exam in the
student’s gradebook says the assignment or exam has not been submitted or has not been entered, it is then treated as a
fact that the student did not do the assignment or exam unless the student has written proof that they did in fact complete
and submit such assignment/exam as outlined in the directions. Make sure your assignments are submitted well before the
due date so you can make sure they are in. All gradebook questions must be addressed by the student to the lead instructor
at midterm and then again during the week before finals. There will be no changes accepted to the gradebook regarding
absent or late/missed assignments or late/missed exams during finals week. It is the student’s responsibility to know what
their grades are and contact the instructors or their nursing coordinator for a plan to improve.
1.
Grades:
Grades are given for both theory classes and clinical performance of clinical nursing courses. Students
must earn a minimum grade of "C" with a maintained 2.5 GPA or better in all required courses of the program.
Students who fail a theory or clinical course will be dismissed from the nursing program. A final grade of D or F is
considered to be an unsatisfactory grade.
2.
Active Learning:
In addition to educational strategies such as reading, listening, and reflecting, when appropriate
this class makes use of learning techniques commonly known as active learning. Students should expect to
participate in active learning techniques such as discussions and presentations, small group activities, writing,
problem-solving, movement, case studies, role-playing, etc. These activities promote analysis, synthesis, and
evaluation of class content in order to improve student learning outcomes.
3.
Assignments/Quizzes/Clinical Paperwork:
All assignments must be completed and submitted on time in the
manner specified by the faculty. Students may fail the course if all assignments are not completed. Late/makeup
work will not be accepted (student will receive a 0%) unless previously arranged with the instructor. Students who
