Students enrolled in this course should expect that coursework scheduling will remain constant under normal circumstances. However, due to outside forces beyond the control of faculty and/or staff at LCSC, students should be aware that schedule and delivery modalities may change throughout the semester. While course times and meeting days should remain the same (excluding class cancellations), delivery modalities (face-to-face, virtual remote, online, etc.) may change due to extenuating circumstances. When circumstances warrant, assignment due dates or changes to assignments may be made. The instructor will communicate such changes with students promptly. It is strongly recommended that students check their LCMail and Canvas accounts regularly to stay informed of the most current course information. Examples of extenuating circumstances include, but are not limited to inclement weather, natural disaster, localized power outages, lab equipment failures, local or state directives, or instructor obligations (community or college service, professional development, or injury/illness, etc.).

Methods of Instruction:  

This course may have class sessions that are in class, remote delivery, and/ or online. PowerPoint presentations will be posted before the associated class session per Canvas – see Weekly schedule. Activities will occur during the classroom sessions.

Technology Requirements: Students are expected to have access to a computer and be able to complete basic computer skills such as creating a word document, PowerPoint presentation, and to take exams through technology means.

Attendance: Class Attendance is Mandatory. This class prepares you for the professional work setting. Therefore, attendance is expected in all classes, just as it is expected in the workplace. Students who do not attend class sessions (in class) will not be allowed to take the quiz at a later date. If students experience an illness or other situations that causes them to be unable to join their class session in person, they may contact their instructor to request a Zoom class link. If the student request is not made at least an hours prior to the start of the class session faculty may be unable to grant this request.
