NOTE ON GRADING TURN AROUND TIME:Bulletin Board Postings- I usually read these discussions during the first part of the week after they are due, usually on the following Monday or Tuesday. Grades for bulletin board postings will be shared with the student via a mid-semester progress report.
Worksheets- Worksheets take much longer to grade, since I have to read a number of individual essays for each student. I also spend a significant amount of time writing comments and suggestions that are helpful for later worksheets. So please take the time to read through my comments. Allow at least 2 weeks for me to return your graded worksheets.
A SPECIAL NOTE:
I will be abroad in Europe from October 14 to 29. I will have limited internet access. So if you have questions during this time, please first ask your classmates via the bulletin board on WebCT. Then you may email me and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Please be patient. During this time Assignments #9-11 are due. I encourage you to turn in Assignment #9 early (and receive extra credit), so I can grade it and return it back to you before I leave.
POLICY ON ACADEMIC DISHONESTY:
You will be responsible for several bulletin board posts and worksheets. All of your work will be your own.
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DO NOT QUOTE OR COPY FROM THE GLOSSARY OR BOOK'S PASSAGES: USE YOUR OWN WORDS.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.)
7.8.4.1 Definitions of Academic Dishonesty (for further information visit http://www.ohlone.cc.ca.us/org/board/policy/Chapter7Reg.htm#7.8.2)
A. Cheating
At Ohlone, cheating is the act of obtaining or attempting to obtain credit for academic work through the use of any dishonest, deceptive, or fraudulent means. Cheating at Ohlone includes but is not limited to the following:
1. Copying, in part or in whole, from another's test or other evaluation instrument or obtaining answers from another person during the test;
2. Submitting work previously presented in another course, if contrary to the rules of either course;
3. Using or consulting during an examination sources or materials not authorized by the instructor;
4. Altering or interfering with grading or grading instructions;
5. Sitting for an examination by a surrogate, or as a surrogate;
6. Any other act committed by a student in the course of his or her academic work which defrauds or misrepresents, including aiding or abetting in any of the actions defined above.B. Plagiarism
At Ohlone, plagiarism is the act of representing the work of another as one's own (without giving appropriate credit) regardless of how that work was obtained and submitting it to fulfill academic requirements. Plagiarism at Ohlone includes but is not limited to
1. The act of incorporating the ideas, words, sentences, paragraphs, or parts thereof, or the specific substance of another's work, without giving appropriate credit, and representing the product as one's own work; and
2. Representing another's artistic/scholarly works such as musical compositions, computer programs, photographs, paintings, drawings, sculptures, or similar works as one's own.
STANDARDS OF STUDENT CONDUCT:
The student has the right and shares the responsibility to exercise the freedom to learn. The student is expected to conduct himself/herself in accordance with standards of the college that are designed to perpetuate 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 available in the offices of the Vice President, Educational Services/Deputy Superintendent; or Division Deans.)
AND FINALLY, A NOTE OF ENCOURAGEMENT:
On first glance I know this class seems very hard-- it is not as hard as you might think if you keep up with the work. The majority of students who take this class earn an A or a B. You can do this and in most cases earn that A or a B if you do the readings on time (both in the text and through the links on the website), participate fully in the bulletin board posts, and turn in your assignments fully completed and on time.
If you are having any problems at all, I want you to email me. I care about how you do.
