17、tly during the semester. Any changes will be sent as announcements that will be posted on Blackboard and sent automatically to all students in the class via NYIT email.Student expectation and responsibilitiesI expect that you will come to class regularly and have previewed the material presented in

18、the text prior to the beginning of the class period. Plan to spend 2-3 hours outside of class for every hour we have in class. This time should be spent reviewing the textbook, completing assignments, organizing and elaborating on class notes, working on chapter review questions, or studying for exa

19、ms. I suggest that you spread this time out across the week rather than trying to cram the night before the given class period or exam.QuizzesQuizzes will be given multiple times, depending on the progress of students learning toward the leaning objectives. Scores will be recalculated to be 5 points

20、 (the maximum possible score is 100 points in this course).Deductions for late arrival, early departure, and unexcused absencesMore than five instances of late arrival, early departure and unexcused absences (combined) will lower your final grade by at least five points.Attendance policyStudents are

21、 expected to attend every class session. Up to 2 unexcused absences are permitted during the semester. Students who exceed these limits may be subject to failure. If a student misses any class or test, the instructor has the right to either grant or deny an opportunity to make up the work that was m

22、issed. In such cases, the instructor shall be the sole judge of the validity of a students explanation for having missed the class or test.Classroom behaviorBehavior that disrupts, impairs, interferes with, or obstructs the orderly conduct, processes, and functions within an academic classroom or la

23、boratory violates the student code of conduct and may result in disciplinary action. This includes interfering with the academic mission of NYTT or individual classroom or interfering with a faculty members or instructors role to carry out the normal academic or educational functions ofhis classroom

24、 or laboratory, including teaching and research.Appealing your scoresAll students have the right to ask questions about the grade they receive on any assignment, quiz or exam. However, any discussion must take place in writing and must be sent to me by e-mail no later than 1 week after the score is

25、distributed. Unreasonable requests (e.g. “can you bump up my score up 15 points) or lack of effort (e.g. missing class often or not asking for help until the very last minutes) will limit my ability to solve this problem.Technology policyThis course will require the use of some communication technol

26、ogies (e.g., tablets, cell phone). Thus, communication technologies can be used during class, but only when recommended by the instructor. If you have an outstanding need to use your cell phone or computer for private communication, please see the instructor prior to class. For your final project pr

27、esentation, you are allowed to use your own laptop.Withdrawal policyA student may withdraw from a course without penalty through the end of the 8th week of class during a 14- or 15-week semester and through the 8th meeting during an 8-week course cycle. After this, the student must be doing passing

28、work in order to receive a W grade. Students who are not passing after the 8th week or equivalent will be assigned the grade of WF.It is the studenf s responsibility to inform the instructor of his/her intention to withdraw from a course. If a student has stopped attending class without completing a

29、ll assignments and/or examinations, failing grades for the missing work may be factored into the final grade calculation and the instructor for the course may assign the grade of WF. The grade of F is used for students who have completed the course but whose quality of work is below the standard for

30、 passing.Withdrawal forms are available in departmental offices and once completed must be filed with the registrar. Students should be reminded that a W notation could negatively impact their eligibility for financial aid and/or V.A. benefits, as it may change the students enrollment status (full-t

31、ime, part-time, less than part-time). International students may also jeopardize their visa status if they fail to maintain full-time status.Academic integrity and plagiarism policiesEach student enrolled in a course at NYIT agrees that, by taking such course, he or she consents to the submission of

32、 all required papers for textual similarity review to any commercial service engaged by NYIT to detect plagiarism. Each student also agrees that all papers submitted to any such service may be included as source documents in the services database, solely for the purpose of detecting plagiarism of su

33、ch papers.Plagiarism is the appropriation of all or part of someone else,s works (such as but not limited to writing, coding, programs, images, etc.) and offering it as ones own.Cheating is using false pretenses, tricks, devices, artifices or deception to obtain credit on an examination or in a coll

34、ege course. If a faculty member determines that a student has committed academic dishonesty by plagiarism, cheating or in any other manner, the faculty has the academic right to 1) fail the student for the paper, assignment, project and/or exam, and/or 2) fail the student for the course and/or 3) br

35、ing the student up on disciplinary charges, pursuant to Article VI, Academic Conduct Proceedings, of the Student Code of Conduct.Cheating on an examination in this course will result in a zero for the examination and the matter will be reported to the appropriate college authorities as per the Stude

36、nt Handbook. A second incident of cheating on an examination will result in failure for the course.Support for students with disabilitiesIt is the policy of New York Institute of Technology to provide reasonable accommodations for students who are otherwise qualified but have disabilities, including

37、 learning disabilities, health impairments, and other disabling conditions. Possible accommodations include, but are not limited to, test schedule modifications, class relocation, and possible assistance in acquisition of necessary equipment.The college has an interest in helping students with disab

38、ilities to be competitive in this academic environment. Therefore, reasonable accommodations will be made upon proof both of disability and need for the accommodations. It must be understood that accommodations are meant to facilitate educational opportunities. Admission to NYIT and accommodations d

39、o not guarantee success. Therefore, in addition to accommodations, thecollege encourages utilization of auxiliary services available to all students to maximize opportunities for success. Students whose disabilities may require some type of accommodation must complete a request for accommodations fo

40、rm and an intake interview with their campus services coordinator prior to the academic semester. Accommodations maybe requested at any time during the semester; however, accommodations cannot be applied to past failures, only to future academic endeavors. Appropriate modifications of accommodations

41、 will be worked out on a case-by-case basis and will not necessarily incorporate all requested changes.Students for whom auxiliary services一such as readers, interpreters, note takers, etc,have been approved should arrange these with their campus services coordinator. In addition to discussing approp

42、riate educational modifications, the campus services coordinator will serve as a liaison with other college faculty and administration on behalf of students with disabilities.Library resourcesAll students can access the NYIT virtual library from both on and off campus at .
