CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION:
Class will be primarily interactive lectures based on the assigned
readings and projected images from a website. Occasionally we will
be viewing video tapes. You will do a variety of reading activities
in pairs, groups, and individually. You are expecterd to participate
in all activities. We will cover 6-8 untis from the text. In
addition, there will be supplemental reading activities also required.
Part of your grade will be based on class participation and attendance.
How I handle class participation:
|
There is an internet site created for your benefit at : http://www.vsearch.com/Kenney/
A tentative calendar/schedule will be provided with this greensheet;
however, there will be times when the schedule will need to be adjusted.
Attendance is mandatory and attendance will be taken.
EXAMINATIONS & QUIZZES:Three absences drops your "Class Participation/Attendance/Office meeting" grade a full letter. Each additional absence drops your "Class Participation/Attendance" grade a half a letter. A lateness is worth a half absence. Please note that this is significant because it comprises 10% of your over all grade. If you miss 3 classes consecutively we may drop you or you may risk a lowered grade.
EVALUATION OF STUDENT PERFORMANCE:There will be several quizzes based on the readings and classwork. Notes and textbooks may not be used during quizzes in ART 101. Notes and textbooks may be used on selected quizzes in ESL 161 Reading II for Second Language Learners. Meeting deadlines on time is an important part of American academic culture; therfore, we will not accept late assignments unless you talk to us in advance. Do not assume a late assignment will be accepted. If you know that you will be absent for a quiz or a test, tell us before so we can make other arrangements.

ACADEMIC DISHONESTY
In American colleges, cheating on tests, copying other students' homework,
and copying other people's papers are unacceptable and grounds for failure.
You are expected to turn in only your own work.
All the work on your assignments must be in your own words. You may not copy from the book, glossary, encyclopedia, the internet or another student.
DO NOT QUOTE THE GLOSSARY OR BOOK'S PASSAGES: USE YOUR OWN WORDS.
Academic dishonesty defrauds all those who depend upon the integrity of the College, its courses, and its degree and certificates. Students are expected to follow the ethical standards required in Ohlone courses. These Standards are defined in the Policy on Academic Dishonesty . Violations of this policy include cheating and plagiarism. (Copies of this policy are available in the offices of the Vice President, Educational Services/Deputy Superintendent; or Division Deans.)

work was obtained and submitting it to fulfill academic requirements. Plagiarism

its educational purposes. These procedures, along with applicable
penalties for violation, are found in the Standards of Student Conduct
and Discipline and Due Process Procedures. (Copies of this policy are

Superintendent; or Division Deans.)
Cell Phones and Pagers
Please turn off your cell phones and beepers in class.
If you are having any problems at all, we want you to call or see us.
It's a good idea for you to drop by at least twice a semester just to say
'hello' and have a chat.
We care about how you do.
