Special Information: Methods of instruction include discussion of homework, lecture on new material, class participation and use of the computer program MyMathLab that accompanies your textbook. You will be given a homework assignment each class period. Keeping up with these assignments is the key to success in this course. It is recommended that you read the text and review your class notes before you work on the assigned problems, both from the textbook and online homework. You are expected to study six to eight hours each week in addition to the classroom time. Free tutoring will be available for all math students during the regular and summer semesters. Your instructor will announce the time and place for these sessions when tutors' schedule at the Learning Center has been determined. C. Withdrawal and Incomplete Grades: Withdrawal: Any student may drop, withdraw, or change to audit on or before the end of the 12th week of classes. This must be processed through the Admissions Office and does not require the instructor's approval. All students remaining on the class roll after the 12th week of classes will receive a letter grade. ADMINISTRATIVE WITHDRAWAL POLICY: With department/division approval, faculty may choose to AW (administratively withdraw) a student who meets one or more of the following criteria: 1. has never attended class by the end of the first three weeks (the first two weeks for an eight-week course) of classes; 2. has consecutively missed 25 percent of the class meetings for a course; or 3. for other reasons considered by the faculty to be special circumstances. Students should not be given an AW who miss class intermittently. The specific guideline (1-3 above) that justifies an AW must be noted on the AW form; complete instructions for administrative withdrawal and the full AW policy are printed on the back of each Administrative Withdrawal form. 2

3 Incomplete: The incomplete grade "I" may not be used as a substitute for a failing grade. The "I" may be given only to a student who has completed more than 70% of the course work, is passing, has a valid excuse for being unable to complete the course, and has the instructor's approval. An "Agreement for Incomplete Grade" form must be completed and signed by the student and the instructor. The contract will specify the time limits and the exact requirements for completing the course. One copy of the contract is retained by the student, one by the instructor, one by the Division, and one by the Registrar's Office. 6. EVALUATION: Lessons: = 20% Test #1 (Online Exam) = 25% Test #2 (Online Exam) = 25% Final = 30% 100% Grading scale: Letter Grade 90% - 100% A 80% - 89% B 70% - 79% C 60% - 69% D 0% - 59% F 3
