Spring 2019 Course Syllabi

on the day they are given or previous arrangements must be made prior to the test day. If you miss an exam you must contact me within 24 hours of the missed exam to arrange for a time to make up the exam. Exams must be made up within 72 hours of the original exam time. If you do not contact me within 24 hours, a grade of 0 will be entered for the exam that was missed. Students are only allowed to make up ONE exam per course. The exam grade will be docked 10% per day for late points. Make-up tests may be more difficult than the one given for the regular scheduled test. Final Exam (20%): The final exam is comprehensive. Anyone who misses the final will receive a 0 on the exam and a grade of F for the course. No make-up final will be given. A student will be exempt from the final exam if he/she has met the following criteria:  Homework grade of 100%  Exam average of 70% or higher  No unexcused absences Cheating on tests will not be tolerated. If you are caught cheating, that will result in an automatic 0 for the exam. A = 90-100% B = 80-89% C = 70-79% D = 60-69% Classroom Policies/Expectations:  Respect is to be shown towards the instructor and fellow students in the classroom.  Attendance and participation is expected. This means you must be alert and paying attention to what is being discussed during class.  Show up to class on time and be prepared (pencil, notebook, calculator, etc).  Electronic Devices: Silence cellular phones, pagers, and similar devices in the classroom and laboratory facilities. If this is an IVN course, cell phone must be turned off at all times in class! I will not tolerate texting, playing games, watching videos, listening to music or anything else that is disruptive to the class and others around you. You will be asked once to put the phone away, if asked again you will be asked to leave. (If you are expecting an important phone call, please inform me before class.)  Do NOT wear headphones during class or tests. They are not allowed. 30% Homework 50% Tests 20% Final Exam 100%
