Pre-requisites: Co-requisites: Required Text:

Grading Policy: Your grade in this course will be determined as follows: I. Tests: There will be four chapter or section tests at 100 points each. All four tests will be counted towards the final grade. The averaged value of your tests will make up for 75% of your final grade in the class. No make-up tests will be given in this course, if for any reason you miss one of the scheduled tests; the grade of the final exam will automatically replace the grade of the missed test. II. Exams: There will a comprehensive (cumulative) final exam. The score of this final exam will count for 25% of your final grade. There will be no make-ups for the final exam. If you miss the final exam you will get a grade of zero (0) and it will be included in the calculation of the final grade for the class.

Grading Scale: A: 90% - 100 % B: 80% - 89% C: 70% - 79% D: 60% - 69% F: Below 60% A grade of “I” will only be given if the final exam is missed due to documented, extreme circumstances, and you have been attending at least 60% of the semester and your grade average is a minimum of C. Note: A tentative, weekly schedule of topics and exam dates is given at the end of this handout. Tutoring: Tutoring is available for all registered students in the Learning center (Bldg 1, 4th Floor). Please contact Mr. Joshua Spencer ([email protected]) for available dates and times. Disabled Students: Any student who because of a disability, may need special arrangements to meet the course requirements, should contact the instructor as soon as possible to make any necessary accommodations. Students requiring special accommodations in the classroom should present appropriate verification of their disability from the ACCESS Department. Attendance: Student success in any class depends on their attendance and their professional behavior while in class, therefore, attendance is very important for the successful completion of this class. Three consecutive absences or a total of six hours of absences may lead to course withdrawal. Professional conduct requires for you to arrive on time to class and remain in class for the duration of the lecture session. Missed class notes and class materials are the responsibility of the student, and constitute no excuse for lack of performance in class or any of the tests or exams. Classroom Decorum: Smoking, eating or drinking are not allowed in MDC classrooms. All students are expected to behave professionally and courteously while in class. You will receive one warning for any disruptions during class (e.g. unruly behavior, etc.). After this warning you will be asked to leave the classroom for the day and you will be counted as absent from the lecture. Additionally, students will be asked to leave the classroom if any of the following rules are violated during class:  All cell phones must be turned off or placed in silent mode prior to entering the classroom  Use of cell phones, including earpieces, are strictly prohibited during class  Cell phones cannot be used as calculators during a test, and text messaging is strictly forbidden while in class, and especially during a test or exam. Failure to adhere to this policy will result in a grade of zero for the exam and possible disciplinary action from the school’s administration. Academic Dishonesty Policy: If you are suspected of cheating, plagiarism, or any other type of academic dishonesty as outlined in MDC procedure 4074 of the Students Rights and Responsibilities Handbook, you will be subjected to procedural due process as outlined in procedure 4074 of the same handbook. Honors students should refer to the Honors College Code of Conduct. Electronic Calculators: Electronic calculators are essential for the successful completion of homework assignments, as well as for tests and exams, and must be brought to class every time the class meets. Programmable and graphing calculators are not allowed in this class. No two students are allowed to

share a calculator, and you cannot use your cell phone as a calculator during a test or an exam. Students who fail to comply with these regulations will be asked to leave the classroom and will earn a grade of zero (0) in that test or exam. Course Drop: It is the student’s responsibility to drop this class, if desired, within the time available. The College academic calendar is available at: http://www.mdc.edu/academic_calendar/. Emergencies: Miami Dade College has an emergency number that you can use to inquire about the status of the College during an emergency on a 24 hour basis. The number is 305-237-7500. If a test is scheduled for the day of the emergency, the test will be given the next time the class meets.

Disclaimer: The instructor reserves the right to change the order of delivery of topics and the date of test and exams, to accommodate the needs of the students in the class.
