PERSONAL CONDUCT:
This class is conducted in keeping with the colleges mission statement and objectives as
outlined in the university/college catalogue.
While free and open expression is always strongly encouraged, no conduct that results in
harassment, intimidation, or threat to any student or group of students is tolerated.
STUDENT PRIVACY:
Student privacy is respected at all times. Grades, Assignments, Test results, and other
administrative data may be posted in public access areas. Students will never be identified by
name on such postings. Students will be identified by partial student code numbers only (i.e.
last 5 digits of Social Security Number). Students have the option of eliminating even these
coded postings. Contact the instructor for special arrangements.
ATTENDANCE POLICY:
Students are required to attend all scheduled class meetings for the entire period. Attendance
is considered as part of the course requirements and any absence will reduce students grade.
Should illness or some emergency make attendance impossible, please notify the instructor of
this situation, in writing, as soon as possible following the absence. If a necessary absence can
be anticipated, please notify the instructor, in writing, as far in advance as possible.
In accordance with college regulations, excessive absences for any reason may result in failure
to pass the course. Generally, nine (9) unexcused absences are considered excessive. There
is a margin of 5 minutes before the student is considered late; otherwise, will be also
considered absent. If the student has another commitment that requires him/her to be
consistently late or absent, then he/she should drop the class.
Students desiring to drop the class should secure the official drop form from the Admissions
and Records Office. Officially withdrawing from the course may avoid unnecessary grade
penalties. Consult the school catalogue and class schedule for various drop dates. Enrolment
and withdrawal are student responsibilities.
Students are responsible for instructions and material presented during any class session from
which they are absent. Make-up instruction is not provided.
Students are responsible for taking examinations on the date scheduled. Make-up tests will
only be given in those cases where it is clearly impossible for the student to attend the
scheduled class period due to circumstances beyond his/her control. Points will be deducted
for tests taken after scheduled test period. Make-up tests for student convenience will not be
provided.
LECTURE POLICY
Understanding every topic is important because each is interrelated and failure to understand a
certain topic might cause problems in understanding subsequent lessons. Therefore, consistent
study habit is encouraged such as after-class reviews and practices related to programming to
ensure effective learning.
EXAM POLICY
Only students absent from regularly scheduled examinations because of authorized University
activities will have the opportunity to take them at an alternate time. Make-up exams for
absences due to any other reason are case to case basis and will be at the discretion of the
instructor. Major exams will be based on the University timetable.
The Student Code of Conduct, presented in the college catalogue, is strictly enforced in this
class. Special attention should be given to the rules concerning cheating and plagiarism that are
grounds for expulsion from the class.
Students are required to study text assignments, attempt problems, and come to class
prepared to cover material and problems assigned.
Students are required to submit homework assignments, papers, projects, and other
instructional and administrative material on required dates. Points will be deducted and grades
adjusted for any material submitted after the due dates unless specifically excused by the
instructor.
