Course Policies
1. Attendance. Please refer to the CCA Student Handbook (p. 12). Attendance - Student attendance and participation in this course are
essential to learning the material. Students are expected to attend each class and laboratory session, be on time, and stay for the entire
session. Failure to attend will negatively affect your grade.
2. Classroom conduct – Students are expected to assist in maintaining a classroom environment that is conducive to learning and is
respectful to the instructor and the other students. Within the classroom, students are prohibited from using cellular phones AT ANY
TIME, making offensive remarks, or engaging in any form of disruptive activity. Inappropriate behavior in the classroom may result
in a request to leave the class at the instructor’s discretion.
3. Mandatory attendance is required during synchronous class (Face-to-Face or Virtual). As per college policy, students are expected to
complete activities / assignments on-time. While some projects span the entire semester, others are due on specific dates throughout
the semester. Ten percent (10%) of the total points available (or a minimum of 1 point) are deducted from a student's grade on a project
when it is received after the stated due time (usually 5:00 p.m.) on the due date unless otherwise stated on the rubric for the individual
project/assignment. An additional 5% (or a minimum of 1 point) is deducted for each day the project/assignment is late. Work that is
more than one week late will not be accepted without a doctor's note submitted to the instructor or proof of other emergency beyond
the student's control. Be sure to consult the rubric for the individual project for more complete details. Students who are unable to
complete the work during the semester are eligible for an Incomplete only if the reason fits the College's guidelines for an incomplete.
If an Incomplete is granted, it will automatically convert to the grade of F if the work is not completed by the end of the following two
semesters or one year.
4. Tests and Make-ups
All quizzes for this course must be completed. The final examination will be delivered during class schedule.
12. CCA-OVPAA-IEAS-OBTLP-Understanding the Self
July 27, 2020 – Rev. 03
5. Extra Credit. Students are expected to complete the projects / activities as required for the class and to do the best they can on each
project throughout the semester. Thus, it is the policy of the instructor not to give additional assignments for extra credit for students
who wish to pull up their grades at the end of semester.
Every attempt is made to provide a complete OBTLP that provides an accurate overview of the courses. However, circumstances and
events may make it necessary for the instructor to modify the syllabus during the semester. This may depend, in part, on the progress,
needs and experiences of the students.
6. Students participate in the discussion, and answer the discussion questions. Failure to do those in 3 weeks will mean dropping from
the course (Please See Institute Bulletin).
7. Requirements such as activities / assignments / projects should be submitted / posted on or before the given deadline.
8. Coordinate with the professor, using various modes given on concerns problems regarding the requirements.
9. Non-submission of requirements will be incomplete from the course.
