Attendance and participation.
Your attendance and punctuality are essential for success. You are expected to attend all sessions and
be prepared to participate (active participation is required). If you are absent and I don't hear from
you, your absence is an "unexcused" absence. Refer to page 18 of the Catalog
2003-04. With One unexcused
absences, the instructor may initiate an official withdrawal. 2.
Assignments. a. E-Workbook/
Lab Manual. It contains
automatically graded exercises in an Online format related to each
lesson. Each lesson must be completed
by the specified deadline. Go to http://books.quia.com
to complete the exercises. b. Homework. You will be given assignments each day to
help you internalize the material that has been presented in class, and to
familiarize you with the next day's work.
These materials will be corrected in class. You must keep a folder of the
assignments. Date each assignment. The folder will be turned in the day of
each test. d. NO
EXTRA CREDIT will be offered in this course. 3.
Tests. a. Six tests (pruebas) will be given at the end of each lesson. NO MAKE-UP TESTS will be given. The highest

The lab is monitored by a lab technician and is open from TESTING POLICY:
Students should exhibit the qualities of honesty and integrity. Any form of dishonesty, cheating,
fabrication, or plagiarism may make you subject to disciplinary action. (See pages 20-21, Catalog 2003-04) WITHDRAWALS,
INCOMPLETES, and F's: Policy set forth in MCC catalog, page 18,
will be followed. If an "F"
is earned, it will be given.
"D's" are not given instead of "F's" because the
student is on probation, on scholarship, or any other reason. The
last day for a student's initiated withdrawal is July 15. Make sure that you take care of the paper
work necessary for any type of class withdrawal. This is the student's not the instructor's
responsibility. Students who do not
follow the outlined procedure may receive a grade of "F" for the

this particular group. Any student who
is disruptive to the point that it affects the learning process will be asked
to leave. |
