Internet Explorer for navigating the Internet, and the three most popular
programs within the Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, and Access). You will

VI. CLASS POLICIES
It is the
students' responsibility to make any arrangement necessary to obtain a personal
tutor. The instructor will not be the student's personal tutor to design and
develop the student's personal/business assignments (project). The student is
required to learn the course concepts, and then create and develop their own
personal/business assignments. The student must design and develop their
homework independently, and use the online course information and the
instructor as guidelines. The instructor will not install software on the
student's personal computer at the students' home or business. The students are
responsible and accountable for their own personal property. No cell phones,
recorders, camcorders, or any other electrical device is allowed in the
classroom without the permission of the instructor. No guests or children are
allowed without the permission of the instructor or the Business Office.
Missed Classes: You are responsible for the
activities of each class period. If you
know of a conflict ahead of time, you are welcome to submit projects early.
There is no absolute right to a make up test unless
you have an acceptable excuse. If you do not take a test on the scheduled day
and have an excuse, contact me for a makeup quiz. Makeup quizzes are typically more rigorous
than the regularly-scheduled test (i.e. You may be
asked to complete two or three Independent Challenges instead of only one.)
Academic Dishonesty: Plagiarism and cheating are serious
offenses and may be punished by failure on an exam, paper or project; failure
in the course; and/or expulsion from the College. For more information refer to
the "Academic Dishonesty" policy in the College Catalog.
Need for Assistance: If you have any condition, such as a
physical or learning disability for which you need extra assistance, please see
me immediately. If you have already met
with Special Services, please provide me with information regarding your
special need as soon as possible so that appropriate accommodations can be
made.
Ø Disability Accommodations - Students with a learning
disability need to discuss their situation with the Disability Support Services
Department. Students need to request an
accommodation notification for the instructor.
Ø Cheating - It is expected that students will
conduct themselves with integrity. If you cheat or assist others in cheating,
you violate a trust.
Cheating
includes but is not limited to the following:
Ø copy files or lend your storage
device to another student
Ø copy answers on exams or glance at
nearby exams
Ø print work for someone else
Ø turn in assignments that have been
used in other classes
Ø purchase or sell assignments or exam
materials
If you cheat,
some or all of the following actions will be taken:
Ø You will receive a lower point score
up to and including a zero for that particular assignment or exam.
Ø A report of the incident may be
forwarded to the Dean of Student Services. The Dean may file the report in your
permanent record and/or take further disciplinary action.
You will be evaluated based on your
combined performance on homework assignments and exams.
The Assignment Sheet will enable easy
tracking of progress and grades. There will be four exams.
Your ability to understand and follow the directions in the text thoroughly will be an essential component for successful completion of the projects/homework. The computer lab is in room C111
The following grading scale will be
used: Test 1: 25%: Test 2: 25%: Test 3: 25%: Final: 25%
