Course Policies
Time Management
An online course can take a considerable amount of time. As
stated in welcome page, each module requires 6 – 8 hours for readings and
assignments/assessments. Work on the assignments regularly over the week rather than
waiting until the last day or two.
Participation
Depending on the class activities, you are responsible for completing weekly assignments, participating in discussion groups, and checking in to the course site on a consistent basis.
Faculty Initiated Drop
Please be advised that if you do not “attend” class at least once during the first week, I will drop you from class. Since this is an online course, this requirement means that you MUST be present in our Moodle course site during the first week and participate in the first assignment—Self-Introduction.
Deadlines
You will always be given explicit instructions on where to send your assignments. Assignments are usually due on a weekly basis – the exact
dates will always be found in the activities. NO LATE SUBMISSION WILL BE ACCEPTED. PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS POLICY AND SUBMIT YOUR WORK ON TIME.
Turnaround Time
The instructor will be monitoring the discussion board on a daily basis. Submitted assignments will be graded and feedback will be provided within 3 days after the module is concluded. E-mail messages will be answered within 24 hours on weekdays and 48 hours on weekends.
Academic Integrity
Under all circumstances, students are expected to be honest in
their dealings with faculty, administrative staff, and fellow students. In
speaking and/or correspondence with members of the college community, students must give an accurate representation of the facts at hand. Students must submit work that fairly and accurately reflects their level of accomplishment. Any work that is not a product of the student’s own effort is considered dishonest. Students may not submit the same work for more than one course. A student may be suspended or expelled for academic dishonesty. Please refer to the Student Handbook for additional information regarding the policy on academic honesty.
