Assessments: Assessments for this course will include weekly online quizzes and four
proctored exams. The four exams must be taken at a Testing Center so
that they can be proctored. The exams will be closed book. Early in the
semester we will work out where you are going to take the proctored
exams. If you take the exams at any of Yavapai College’s Testing
Centers the proctoring will be free. If you are in a location that requires
a non Yavapai College affiliated Testing Center you may have to pay a
small fee to take the exams. (Usually about 15 – 30 dollars) You are
responsible for this fee to take the exams. Every effort will be made to
find a free testing center. There will be 10 online quizzes covering the
lecture and lab material. The questions on the quizzes will be similar,
but not identical, to those found on the exams. The point of the quizzes
is to prepare you for the types of questions you will see on the exams.
There will be weekly online labs. At the beginning of the semester
students will be required to complete a quiz covering the syllabus for the
class.
Grading (credit) criteria: Exams:
4 proctored exams at 125 pts apiece………………...…...500 pts.
Quizzes:
10 online quizzes at 25 pts. apiece .……………….……..250 pts.
Labs:
12 at 25 pts. apiece……………………………...…...…..300 pts.
Syllabus Quiz……………………………………….....……..20 pts.
Total Points 1,070 pts.
Letter Grades: The first criterion to pass the class is to achieve a 70% average on the
proctored exams. Once that criterion is met the letter grades will be
assigned as follow:
A = 963 – 1,070 pts. B = 856 – 962 pts. C = 749 – 855 pts. D = 642 –
748 pts. F ≤ 641 pts.
Labs: Labs will be graded for quality and completeness. Each lab is worth 25
points. Labs will be assigned weekly and will be due on Wednesdays at
5 pm. The lab material will be on the proctored exams so when you’re
completing the labs you’re studying for the proctored exams!
Quizzes: Quizzes will be given online about once a week. Each quiz will be
worth 25 points and will be due on Wednesdays at 5 pm. The quiz
questions will be on the proctored exams so when you’re completing the
quizzes you’re studying for the proctored exams!
Exams: There will be four closed book comprehensive proctored exams during
the semester. Each exam will be worth 125 points. The average score
for the four exams must be a 70% in order to pass the class.
4. Grading Policy: My official grading policy is that all assignments will be graded and
returned one week after they are due (or one week after I receive them in
the mail for proctored exams). However, most of the time it will be
much sooner than that.
Absences: No late work will be accepted. All assignments will be posted one week
before they are due so that students can fit the assignment into their
particular schedule. All assignments must be completed by their due
date to receive credit. No extra credit will be assigned.
Student Resources (as applicable)
Library services: Library services are available at the Prescott Campus and the Verde
Valley Campus libraries. Both libraries are members of a countywide
library network, which provides access to a wide-range of information
and resources at libraries throughout YavapaiCounty. Possession of a
College library card entitles students to access materials housed at
member libraries. Instructors may place required course materials on
reserve in the library or make assignments that require the use of library
resources.
Learning Centers: A LearningCenter is available on the Prescott and Verde Valley
Campuses. These centers provide a variety of learning support for
students including tutoring, adaptive computer and equipment for
students with disabilities, and a networked general computer lab.
Tutoring: Call for details: Prescott 776-2085 or Verde Valley 634-6562
Online resources and
services:
Online writing tutoring for any academic subject is available at
www2.yc.edu/content/learningcenters
Instructor Procedures and Institution Policies
Attendance: Students are expected to attend and participate in all class meetings,
laboratories, and field trips. A student who expects to be absent due to
another school-sponsored activity or compelling personal reason must
make prior arrangements with the instructor. All course work must be
made up as directed by the instructor. A student who does not adhere to
instructor and College attendance requirements may be dropped from
the course as defined in the Yavapai College General Catalog.
Course withdrawal: After the drop/add period closes, students may withdraw until the
deadline for student-initiated withdrawals. Withdrawals result in a "W"
on the permanent transcript.
For semester-length classes 14 weeks in length or longer, the withdrawal
deadline is October 15th
For classes of 4 days to 14 weeks in length, withdrawals are permitted
until the class is 50 percent completed.
For classes of 1-3 days in length, withdrawals are permitted until the
5. class is 50 percent completed.
A "Y" is noted on the permanent transcript for an administrative
withdrawal. More information can be obtained from the Admissions &
Registration Office.
Academic integrity: Honesty in academic work is a central element of the learning
environment. The presentation of another individual’s work as one’s
own or the act of seeking unfair academic advantage through cheating,
plagiarism or other dishonest means are violations of the College’s
“Student Code of Conduct.” Definitions of plagiarism, cheating, and
violation of copyright and penalties for violation are available in the
Yavapai College General Catalog. All cell phones must be stowed
before beginning an assessment. The presence of a cell phone on a
student’s desk during an assessment will be construed as cheating and
the student will receive an F for the class. Any incident of cheating or
plagiarism on any assignment in the class will result in the student
receiving an F as their letter grade for the class.
Student code of conduct: Respect for the rights of others and for the College and its property are
fundamental expectations for every student. The “Student Code of
Conduct” outlines behavioral expectations, and explains the process for
responding to allegations of student misconduct.
Disability support services: YavapaiCollege is committed to providing educational support services
to students with documented disabilities. Academic support services or
accommodations for mobility impaired students must be arranged
through the ADA Coordinator (Prescott Campus: 928.776.2079 or
Verde Valley Campus: (928.634.6563).
Cell phone and pager: YavapaiCollege is committed to providing a quality learning
environment. All cell phones and pagers must be placed in a non-
audible mode while in classrooms, computer labs, the library, the
learning center, and testing areas. Cell phones and pagers must be used
outside these facilities.
Preventing Harassment: Students are expected to respond and write in a professional and
appropriate manner when activities are assigned to create scenarios,
discuss opinions, present on a selected subject, or post to a web board or
email. Students and faculty each have responsibility for maintain an
appropriate learning environment. Faculty have the professional
responsibility to treat all students with understanding, dignity and
respect, to guide classroom discussion and to set reasonable limits on the
manner in which they and their students express opinions. Professional
courtesy and sensitivity are especially important with respect to
individuals and topics dealing with differences of race, culture, religion,
politics, sexual orientation, gender variance and nationalities. All
correspondence between instructor and students and between individual
students must be of a professional nature. Any inappropriate language
(profanity) or correspondence of a threatening or harassing nature will
result in the student being immediately dropped from the class.
