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% ( 1.5 days) of the lecture or 10% (1.5 days) 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.
A sum of two tardies is equivalent to one non- participation period.
|

A. Lecture average is 90 or above
B. Attendance is perfect
C. Assignments are completed and turned in
|
Cell phone Policy
Cell phones may be brought into the classroom or lab. However, they must be in the off or vibrate position.
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.
