14. ATTENDANCE REQUIREMENTS: (School Policy) Students enrolled at one of the university s external campuses should make every effort to attend all class meetings. All absences must be explained to the instructor, who will then determine whether the omitted work may be made up. When a student reaches that number of absences considered by the instructor to be excessive, the instructor will so advise the student and file an unsatisfactory progress report with the external campus executive director/dean. Any student who misses 25 percent or more of the regularly scheduled class meetings may receive a grade of F in the course. Additional attendance policies for each course, as defined by the instructor in the course syllabus, are considered a part of the university s attendance policy. (WBU Hawaii Addendum) Students who miss the first two class meetings without providing a written explanation to the instructor will be automatically dropped from the roster as a noshow. Students who know in advance that they will be absent the first two class meetings and who wish to remain in the class must inform the instructor in order to discuss possible arrangements for making up absences. (Instructor Addendum) Attendance is very important to your success in this class. In the event of a missed assignment or activity, it is the student s responsibility to contact the instructor. Absences will affect your grade. Missing an hour or more of a class is counted as an absence. Participation in online portions counts as an equal part of the attendance component. Missing online assignments is the same as missing face-to-face classes. 15.

The articles should show application of the principles learned in the text book. You will also work in class groups to discuss the topic areas for the respective weeks. Your average for these two areas will be multiplied by the 20% of the course grade, so if you skip one, it will significantly affect your grading, since it will bring your average down. Blackboard Discussions & Scoring: Our discussions will be two weeks long. In the first week, students will fully answer the discussion question(s) using scholarly resource support and critical thinking. It must be a comprehensive response adding value to the discussion and demonstrating application of the principles being discussed (represented on the schedule as Initial Response ). In the second week, you must respond to at least two classmates in a substantive manner, which should demonstrate scholarship and critical analysis. Use outside sources to substantiate your assertions (represented on the schedule as Classmate Responses ). I will grade the discussions after the two-week period is complete. The more times you respond to classmates, and the more comprehensively you respond will increase your grade for the discussion. Your average for all of these will be multiplied by the 20% of the course grade, so if you don t participate in the discussions, like mentioned previously, it will significantly affect your grading, since it will bring your average down. Final Paper: Students will complete one research paper for this class. The paper needs to be a minimum of five (5) pages of content, excluding coversheet, abstract and references, and it should utilize at least five scholarly sources (journal articles, not just websites) and ten sources overall. Papers must utilize proper APA format. The paper will be submitted to Safe Assignment. If Safe Assignment detects more than a 20% match of previously written work, you must discuss with the instructor to get further instructions. As noted previously, this is worth the highest percentage of your grade (35%). Final Exam (on Blackboard): Students will be placed on a team to present a practical scenario to show application of the principles learned in the course. Each person on the team will be responsible for his/her own area, while ensuring his/her presentation
matches the overall team goals for the project. Therefore, work together to build fluidity, but the majority of the grade will be the demonstration of application in each person s respective area. Participation is not optional. If you don t participate, you will not pass the class, even though the exam is only worth 15% of your grade. Other Important Information: 1. Homework is due by 11:59pm on the last day of the specified week. 2. Late homework will result in a lower grade. 3. Written work is graded on the basis of content first, but also on the quality of grammar and punctuation, which should go without saying at this graduate level. 4. All written assignments should be 12-point type and using APA Manuscript Writing Style. 5. Academic honesty is expected of all students. Plagiarism, cheating, and other acts that lack academic honesty may result in a zero on the particular assignment. 6. Your discussions and interactions need to remain professional and facilitate learning and growth. 7. Always contact the professor if you need assistance. 8. No work will be accepted after the last day of class!
