Attendance at each class or laboratory is mandatory at Oral Roberts University. Excessive absences can reduce a student s grade or deny credit for the course. 2. A fee of $15.00 is assessed for all late exams. The university s late exam policy applies to all exams taken without notifying the professor prior to the regularly scheduled exam time and to all exams taken late without an administrative excuse. 3. Students and faculty at Oral Roberts University must adhere to all laws addressing the ethical use of others materials, whether it is in the form of print, electronic, video, multimedia, or computer software. Plagiarism and other forms of cheating involve both lying and stealing and are violations of ORU s Honor Code: I will not cheat or plagiarize; I will do my own academic work and will not inappropriately collaborate with other students on assignments. Plagiarism is usually defined as copying someone else s ideas, words, or sentence structure and submitting them as one s own. Other forms of academic dishonesty include (but are not limited to) the following: a. Submitting another s work as one s own or colluding with someone else and submitting that work as though it were his or hers; b. Failing to meet group assignment or project requirements while claiming to have done so; c. Failing to cite sources used in a paper; d. Creating results for experiments, observations, interviews, or projects that were not done; e. Receiving or giving unauthorized help on assignments. By submitting an assignment in any form, the student gives permission for the assignment to be checked for plagiarism, either by submitting the work for electronic verification or by other means. Penalties for any of the above infractions may result in disciplinary action including failing the assignment or EE 360 Latest Revision: 7/11/2013 2
failing the course or expulsion from the University, as determined by department and University guidelines. 4. Final exams cannot be given before their scheduled times. Students need to check the final exam schedule before planning return flights or other events at the end of the semester. 6. Students are to be in compliance with University, school, and departmental policies regarding Whole Person Assessment (WPA) requirements. Students should consult the WPA handbooks for requirements regarding general education and the students majors. a. The penalty for not submitting electronically or for incorrectly submitting an artifact is a zero for that assignment. b. By submitting an assignment, the student gives permission for the assignment to be assessed electronically. B. Course Policies and Procedures 1. Evaluation Procedures Exam 1 16% Exam 2 16% Exam 3 16% Class Activity/Project 20% Homework 16% Final 16% Total 100% 2. Whole Person Assessment Requirements 3. Other Policies and/or Procedures a. A certain amount of homework, if any, will be assigned at the end of each lecture and will be due at the beginning of the lecture the week after. Late work will be assessed 20% per week penalty. b. The first three absences (excused or unexcused) will result in no grade reduction. Each absence thereafter will result in a 3% reduction in the final score (100 percent maximum), which determines the grade. c. Two tardies will count as one absence.
