Classroom and Lab Behaviors
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 make-up. The missed test must be made up before the next scheduled period of instruction. An excused absence only allows for make-up 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 not be brought into the classroom or lab as they are unsafe and disruptive to the environment. 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. Student’s 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.

Instructor’s 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. A student deemed a non-participant for more than 10% (_____ hours) of the lecture or 10% (_______ 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 a non-participant for that period of instruction. |
