Auto Collision and Management Participation Policy: A student is expected to attend and participate during the scheduled period of instruction (lecture and lab). This begins with the first scheduled class day of the term and continues to the last scheduled class day of the term. The student who chooses to consistently participate in class discussions and activities sets themselves to be highly successful. The class and lab activities are designed to develop skills necessary to thrive in the collision repair industry. Skills can only be developed by discovery, observed demonstration, time to try and time to increase neurological and muscle growth. Each student has purchased and set aside time to develop knowledge and skills to be successful in this industry. Make every effort to get everything possible from this time. If a student happens to complete assigned objectives ahead of schedule the instructor and the lead instructor/department chair will discuss and plan activities to continue the growth of these skills. Take advantage of every opportunity to grow as a technician. The Auto Collision Department is dedicated to developing highly trained entry level technicians with the skills and knowledge to advance at a rapid pace. But, life happens. In these situations handle it properly. Students should call in and leave word with the instructor or someone in the office. If possible let the instructor know beforehand, so he can work with you and be better prepared to help keep you caught up. Schedule appointments outside of class time when possible. Provide documentation of the events when possible so that accurate records are kept and integrity is never questioned. Make sure to take responsibility of any make up work and adjust lab work to meet project deadlines. Always be honest and straight forward. When life happens, work through it. |

Participation Policy
Students are expected to present Repair Samples to the Instructor during each Lab period for evaluation.
A Student is expected to attend and participate during the scheduled period of instruction (Lecture and Lab). This begins with the first scheduled class day of the term. A student that misses more than 10% ( 3.0 hours) of the lecture or 10% ( 5.0 hours) of the lab periods, regardless of grades earned on assignments, will have to repeat the course.
A student is considered tardy up to 15 minutes into the scheduled lecture or lab, and thereafter will be considered absent for that period of instruction.

Classroom and Lab Behavior
· Smoking in classrooms, laboratories and shops are prohibited

· Smoking is prohibited within 20 feet of a building, when permitted
· Smoking is prohibited within the fenced area surrounding the ACM and CAT Labs.
· The consumption of drinks, candy and other food items is restricted to lounge areas
· Eating or drinking in laboratories are hazardous because of the toxic nature of lab materials being handled
· No horseplay at any time
· Be responsible – Be a professional
Late Work/Test Policies
All students are required to be present for class. However, unexpected circumstances will occur. If a student has an excused absence, death or illness in the immediate family, the student must notify the instructor of record immediately. If a test is missed, the instructor has to give permission for makeup. The missed test must be made up before the next scheduled period of instruction.
An excused absence only allows for makeup of missed assignments or test. The absence is recorded.
Assignments are due at the beginning of class of the set due date. Late assignments will not be accepted and a grade of “zero” will be earned for said assignment. Students who prior contacted the instructor may be considered excused.
Pop Tests
Can be given at any time by the instructor and are not make up items.
Exemptions
Students can be exempted from a final exam if:
A. Lecture average is 90 or above
B. Attendance is perfect
C. Assignments are completed and turned in
D. Projects are complete
Cell Phone Policy
Cell phones may be brought into the classroom or lab as they are a part of our society. It is common courtesy to put devices such as cell phones and laptops away during presentations and discussions as alerts and notifications from devices can distract you and others. So, the rule is to turn off cell phones during class time and put them away. Do not use a lap top in class unless you use it to take notes. If there is a need to use a device in the classroom, communicate this to your instructor so a discussion can occur and an understanding reached. Phones and earphones may be used in the lab for music only. Phones must be off during demonstrations or class discussions.
Anyone failing to adhere to this policy will be dismissed from class and issued a non-participation grade (absence) for that period of instruction.
Departmental Awards Ceremony/Cleanup Policy
Each student is expected to participate in the awards ceremony and cleanup activities once the date has been identified.
Students’ final exam grade is dependent upon their participation at these functions. One half (½) of the final exam grade for the course is participation. One half (½) of the final exam grade is completing the final exam for the course.
Students with unexpected circumstances can be excused by the department chair only.
TSTC school calendar identifies the end of the semester. Student break begins the day after. |
