COURSE POLICIES
Engagement
The standard requirement for a 3.0 credit hour course is for students to spend at least 12.0 hours in weekly work. This includes preparation, activities and engagement.
Attendance
Enrollment in a course obligates the student not only for prompt completion of all work assigned but also for punctual and regular attendance. It is the student’s responsibility to be informed concerning all course assignments. Absences, whether excused or unexcused, do not absolve a student from this responsibility.
For online classes, attendance is defined as participating in at least one graded academic activity each week. Postings not related to the graded discussion topics, emails, or course assignments may be disqualified for attendance purposes.
Coffee House
As a student, there may be times when you need to reach out to your classmates for assistance, idea sharing, and support. Please any contact forums (ZOOM, Microsoft Teams, etc.) that are accessible to you as a place to help each other, develop relationships with your classmates, and course instructor
Microsoft Office

INSTITUTION POLICIES
Academic Dishonesty
All students are expected to act with civility, personal integrity, respect other student’s dignity, rights and property, and help create and maintain an environment in which all can succeed through the fruits of their own efforts. An environment of academic integrity is requisite to respect for self and others and a civil community.
Academic integrity includes a commitment to not engage in or tolerate acts of falsification, misrepresentation or deception. Such acts of dishonesty include cheating or copying, plagiarizing, submitting another person’s work as your own, using internet sources without citation, fabricating field data or citations, having another student take exams on your behalf, stealing examinations, tampering with the academic work of another student, facilitating other student’s acts of academic
dishonesty, etc.
Academic dishonesty violates the fundamental ethical principles of the college community and compromises the worth of work completed by others. A student should avoid academic dishonesty when preparing work for any class. If charged with academic dishonesty, students will receive written or oral notice of the charge by the instructor. Students who contest the charge should first seek resolution through discussion with the faculty member. If the matter is not resolved, the student may submit a request to the [[email protected]].

Among other things, these statutes require that all students with documented disabilities be guaranteed a learning environment that provides for reasonable accommodations for their disabilities. If you believe you have a disability requiring an accommodation, please contact the Coordinator of Counseling and Disabled Services/Counselor at [[email protected]] or call (803) 780-1272.
