Written Assignments: 300 points (60%) Written assignments must follow the expectations and descriptions in the syllabus and in-class instructions of the professor for full credit. Assignments are individually scored based on the provided grading rubrics. The use of proper grammar and sentence structure is a factor in grading papers.

10 POLICIES AND EXPECTATIONS Attendance o Students are expected to attend all six Zoom sessions of a course. o In extenuating circumstances, a student may be permitted to miss one session, with the advance permission of the instructor. o Missing more than one Zoom session of a course will result in failure of the course. Grades o Grades are reported as percentages. o Students who wish to apply this course towards credentialing requirements in The Wesleyan Church must earn a grade of at least 76%. Plagiarism o Students of Kingswood University are expected to exhibit honesty and integrity in their personal, professional and academic life, and work. As Christians, we are called to a high standard of honesty. o The Senior Dictionary of Canadian English defines plagiarism as an idea, expression, plot, etc. taken from another and used as one s own. Plagiarism is a serious offence in the academic community, and is especially offensive in the Christian academic community since it is an act of dishonesty, evidencing a lack of integrity. Cheating on tests, exams, and other assignments is equally offensive (Kingswood University Academic Policy). o Examples of plagiarism include (but are not limited to) the following: Copying all or part of a theme, exam, paper, reading report, or other written work from another person; Submitting as one s own work that which was wholly or partially done by another; Quoting material from any source without clearly indicating it is someone else s work; Summarizing or paraphrasing from any source clearly indicating it is someone else s work; Misrepresentation of documentation or resources Submitting workbook answers copied from another person or working in a group and submitting an identical set of answers for each member of the group without explicit permission from the professor; Cheating on a test by getting answers in an unauthorized manner; Submitting the same work for more than one course without the prior approval of the instructor. o An instance of plagiarism will result in an automatic F for the specific assignment and may also result in an automatic failing of the course. o A repeat offense will result in an automatic failing of the course.
