Academic Expectations This is a two-credit-hour, senior level course; therefore, over the course of the semester, each student may expect to receive a minimum of 1500 minutes of direct instruction from the professor. The student may also expect to contribute a minimum of hours of homework to the professor. The course will be taught in a lecture style but will utilize individual tasks (daily textbook reading summaries). Students are expected to participate in all assignments. Each student should come prepared to take notes, to interact, to be prepared for scheduled tests, and to think through the various discussions of the day. Attendance Page 4 of 8

5 Students who are tardy to class may receive demerits. Being tardy three times will equal one absence. Being tardy to class by more than fifteen minutes will be considered an absence. All students are permitted one excused absence for each credit hour associated with the class. For example, if a class is a 2 credit hour class each student has 2 excused absences for the semester. Any absence beyond these is an unexcused absence. Unexcused absences due to illness, a death in one s family, or the like may be designated as excused by the Academic Dean. Written requests for this designation, accompanied by documentation such as a doctor s note, may be submitted to the Academic Dean. Each unexcused absence will reduce the student s final course grade by 2%. Being absent 25% or more of any class during the course of the semester will result in the loss of credit for the course. Electronic Usage There will be no communication with those outside of the classroom, nor will there be any unrelated searches conducted during class. Violation of this understanding will result in an absence recorded for that class period. Repeated violation will result in further disciplinary action(s). Submitting Assignments The professor will primarily use NetClassroom for assignment management. Please consult the rest of the syllabus and his direct instruction regarding how to submit assignments. Plagiarism Neither shalt thou steal. Deuteronomy 5:19 As per the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, ("Plagiarize." Merriam-Webster.com. Merriam-Webster, n.d. Web. 29 July ( PLAGIARISM is: to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own, the use (another's production) without crediting the source to commit literary theft, to present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source. The practice of plagiarism is not to be tolerated; therefore, all students must, produce original work, cite all sources, and walk in integrity as it pertains to their scholastic ability. If a student s work is found to be not their own it will receive 0% credit and additional academic penalties will apply. Late Work Let all things be done decently and in order. 1 Corinthians 14:40 Unless otherwise stated, all assignments (papers, projects, reading reports, etc.) are due at the beginning of the designated class. All papers are to be submitted electronically via NetClassroom. Assignments handed in hardcopy form to the professor or ed to the professor will not be accepted. Late work will be penalized. For every 24 hours an assignment is late the overall grade of that assignment will be reduced by 10%. Assignments that are late by 120+ hours (approximately 5 days) will be given a 0%. Any work missed because of an absence must be submitted immediately upon the student s return to class. The instructor is under no obligation to accept any late work. The instructor may alter due dates at his/her discretion. Bibliography - TBD Page 5 of 8
