| 12. Tentative course schedule: | ||
| The proposed Lesson Schedule can be found on the Internet at http://www.landiss.com/ee/131/ee131skd.htm. | ||
| 13. Attendance policy: | ||
| The State of Missouri has requested that the College emphasize Competency Based Education. This course will therefore be centered on gaining the required competencies and attendance will not be computed into the final grade. However, it should be understood that many of those competencies will be gained by activities in the classroom, so regular attendance is advised. Students are responsible for gaining on their own whatever skills they have missed by failing to attend classes and laboratory sessions. | ||
| 14. Number and type of tests or other evaluation methods: | ||
| This information is in the Classroom Policies adopted by this teacher, which can be found on the Internet at http://www.landiss.com/ee/classpol.htm. Additional information is in the proposed Lesson Schedule at http://www.landiss.com/ee/131/ee131skd.htm. | ||
| 15. Makeup policy: | ||
| No makeup assignments or tests are anticipated. Needs will be dealt with individually, with the severity of illness or other excuse taken into account. | ||
| 16. Grading policy and method of grade calculation: | ||
| This information is in the Classroom Policies adopted by this teacher, which can be found on the Internet at http://www.landiss.com/ee/classpol.htm. | ||
| 17. Meaning of PR, I, U, W grades: | ||
| PR = Progress, Re-enroll. Students who make progress in a course, but do not complete the predetermined minimum amount of course work may, at the discretion of the instructor, be given a PR. This symbol represents no credits earned and carries no grade point value. Students are permitted to take the course again, but must pay tuition a second time.
I = Incomplete. This normally indicates students have completed a major portion of the work in a class and, for reasons approved by the instructor, are prevented from completing the amount of course work required during the regular college term. Students must complete the course work in the time frame established by the instructor, up to one calendar year, in order for the "I" to be changed to a letter grade. After one year the "I" will become a permanent grade on the academic record. With the consent of the instructor, the one year limit may be extended. U = Unsatisfactory. A symbol indicating the award of no credit and no grade points. It may be awarded only in courses approved for this purpose under guidelines developed by the College. W= Withdrawal. A transcript notation that reflects withdrawal. |
||
| 18. Withdrawal date and procedure: | ||
| Students deciding to withdraw from a class are encouraged to talk to the instructor first. To formally withdraw, students should report to the campus Counseling Center office for official authorization and then submit official forms to the Admissions/ Registration office. To receive a grade of W for the course, the withdrawal process must be completed prior to the end of the College's twelfth week of classes. Late-start and short-term courses (16 weeks or less) have different withdrawal deadlines. Contact the Admissions/Registration office for appropriate dates.
At the end of the second week of classes (first week for summer and intersession sessions), students who have registered and paid for a class but are reported by the instructor as never attended will be withdrawn. Classes less than a full semester in length may have different administrative withdrawal dates. The class will be shown on the transcript with a grade of W, and students are not eligible for a refund of fees. After this period the instructor cannot withdraw students from class. It is always the student's responsibility to initiate a withdrawal. |
||
| 19. Expected student classroom behavior: | ||
| No behavior is permitted which would detract from the learning experience provided for other students in the class.
The College further states that on the average at least two hours of outside study and preparation are needed for each hour of regular classroom work. Additional information will be found in the "Student Handbook" available from the Admissions Office and online at http://stlcc.edu/FactFinder/index.html. Additional information is also in the Classroom Policies adopted by this teacher, which will be found on the Internet at http://www.landiss.com/ee/classpol.htm. |
||
| 20. How to get help outside the classroom: | ||
| Additional help is available in the FVCC Engineering Technology Center, the Campus Libraries, and various counseling and advising offices around the campuses. Certain specific information may be provided by the teacher (see number 4. above). | ||
| 21. ACCESS statement: | ||
| The ACCESS OFFICE (call 595-4551): disAbility Support Services has been designated by the college as the primary office to guide, counsel and assist students with disabilities. If you receive services through the ACCESS OFFICE and require accommodations for this class, make an appointment with the teacher as soon as possible to discuss your approved accommodation needs. Bring your Instructor Notification Memo provided by the ACCESS OFFICE to the appointment. I will hold any information you share with me in strictest confidence unless you give me permission to do otherwise.
If you have not made contact with the ACCESS OFFICE and have reasonable accommodation needs (volunteer notetaker, extended time for tests, seating arrangements, etc.), I will be happy to refer you. The ACCESS OFFICE will require appropriate documentation of disability. If you have a disability and have no need for accommodations, the use of the ACCESS OFFICE is voluntary. |
