4 4 Grading Standards: Grades will be based on attendance, written and oral participation in class and consistent written participation on the class Blackboard discussion board site, completion of weekly homework assignments, the Saddleback Library workshops, the writing portfolio, three formal essays, one research paper, and the midterm and final exams. Formal Essay Standards All essays must meet the minimum assigned word count. Each essay draft (exploratory, revised, and edited) must be turned in on time and be word-processed in Times New Roman, 12 point font, double-spaced, and paginated. Late essays will receive a 10 % reduction in percentage points. MLA format including a title specific to the thesis of the essay is required. Correct documentation of source information both within the essay (parenthetical citation) and a works cited page at the end of the essay is an essential component of each paper. Formal Essay Writing Rubric A This paper will demonstrate a good deal of thought and an effort to delve into the ideas addressed. The thesis will be supported with appropriate, clearly explained and detailed examples; transitions between sentences and between paragraphs will lend coherence to the paper, assisting the reader in connecting ideas to each other and back to the thesis. The paper will use diction appropriate to the subject and the audience being addressed. No major grammatical or mechanical errors, such as sentence fragments or run-ons, subject-verb agreement problems, or verb tense shift will occur in the A paper. B This paper will also demonstrate a good deal of effort, but may differ from the A paper in its approach to the thesis, which might be more predictable and less inventive on the writer s part. While clear and well-supported for the most part, some unevenness may occur in the flow of the paper s ideas or in some of the explanations which will make the paper less than excellent. As with the A paper, there will be no major grammatical or mechanical errors in the B paper. C The C paper will do an adequate job of introducing its topic, but the thesis might rely on clichés or obvious truisms. There will be explanations and examples in the C paper, but some of them might not clearly support the thesis. Overuse of abstract language might keep this paper from any great depth of thought. And transitions might be lacking in places, leading to some lack of coherence. Occasional grammar and spelling problems might exist which keeps the writing from flowing well. D This paper will probably not contain a thesis, but instead, will merely state a topic. Very few examples or explanations will be used to develop or support any central idea. Vocabulary might be misused in places. Grammar errors which commonly occur in D papers include sentence fragments and run-ons, subject-verb and pronoun-antecedent agreement errors, verb-tense shifts, and unclear pronoun references. F This paper will most likely be incoherent and well off the mark of the assignment. There will be little or no support to guide the reader toward understanding any point to be made, and grammar and mechanical errors will make the writing difficult or impossible to follow.

Essay meets all Essay meets most Essay meets some No submission Plagiarism or Academic Dishonesty Plagiarism is any conduct in academic work or programs involving misrepresentation of someone else s words, ideas or data as one s original work, including, but not limited to, the following: 1. intentionally representing as one s own work the work, words, ideas or arrangement of ideas, research, formulae, diagrams, statistics, or evidence of another. 2. taking sole credit for ideas and/or written work that resulted from collaboration with
11 11 others. 3. paraphrasing or quoting material without citing the source. 4. submitting as one s own a copy of or the actual work of another person, either in part or in entirety, without appropriate citation (e.g., term-paper mill or internet derived products). 5. sharing computer files and programs or written papers and then submitting individual copies of the results as one s own individual work. 6. submitting substantially the same material in more than one course without prior authorization from each instructor involved. 7. modifying another s work and representing it as one s own work. (Saddleback Student Handbook, Code of Conduct, ) Violation of the rules of academic honesty may result in an F on the assignment and may be reported to the Vice President of Student Services. See the following Saddleback Library Webpage for assistance in preventing plagiarism. Classroom Expectations: Respect is the guiding principle for appropriate classroom behavior. Any activity that disrupts learning is disrespectful to other students and is not permissible. This includes cell phone use, texting, and laptop activity, speaking while the instructor or other members of the class have the floor, sleeping, profanity, rudeness, and working on off task assignments. In addition, all rules of conduct as detailed in the Saddleback Student Handbook will be adhered to. As outlined in the student handbook, it is the instructor s right to ask a student to leave the class for violating rules of conduct. In addition, this removal may be reported to the Vice President of Student Services who will take further appropriate action. Out of Class Academic Expectations The amount of time devoted to studying outside the classroom directly affects a student s success inside the classroom. In general, students should expect to spend at least two hours studying outside the classroom for each hour spent inside the classroom. For example, for a standard three-unit course that meets three hours per week, set aside at least six hours per week for homework, reading, projects, research and writing. If the instructor does not assign a specific task for the week, students are still expected to spend the allotted time on activities that will increase their understanding of the subject, such as re-reading texts, typing notes, reviewing course materials, working on semester projects, or pursuing their own study of the subject. Saddleback Correspondence Your instructor will communicate with you through your Saddleback address. Checking this regularly is an essential part of the expectations for this course.
12 12 Attendance Students are expected to attend all scheduled class meetings. A strong correlation exists between attendance and success. Moreover, due to the collaborative workshop aspect of English 1B, attendance is an integral component of success. Missing more than six hours of class (two class sessions) will negatively affect attendance and participation grades as well as the quality of your writing. Tardiness Tardiness is disruptive to the learning environment. If you are unavoidably late, please enter the classroom discreetly and quietly. Excessive tardiness affects learning. In addition, if you miss roll, it is your responsibility to inform the instructor at the end of class. Leaving Early Students who leave class early are duly noted and marked accordingly in the class attendance records. Participation Please note that attendance alone is not sufficient for a passing participation grade. Careful listening, note taking, active engagement in peer-review sessions, Blackboard and classroom discussions are all integral to the learning process. Failure to participate in these learning activities will adversely affect participation grades. Adding/Withdrawing Students are ultimately responsible for adding or dropping classes in a timely manner and maintaining their college records. LMF: 08/23/10 Revised: 08/31/10
