EWRT1B Syllabus (page 2)COURSE REGULATIONS
First week attendance: Students must be present every day for the first week of classes to reserve their spaces in the class. If a student misses a class during the first week and does not contact the instructor by the next day, s/he may be dropped from the class.
Dropping: The last day to drop this class with no record is Friday, April 27. After that date, you will need a petition to drop the course, and the withdrawal will appear on your transcript. Withdrawal from class before the deadline is the responsibility of you, the student. Do not depend on the instructor to drop you. Failure to withdraw by the dates listed below will result in a failing grade. The instructor also has the option to drop you from the class if you have missed more than four class periods.
Disruptive Classroom Behavior: Disruptive classroom behavior may include (but is not limited to) the following: talking when it does not relate to the discussion topic, sleeping, reading other material (e.g. newspapers, magazines, textbooks from other classes), eating or drinking, monopolizing discussion time, refusing to participate in classroom activities, leaving cell phones and pagers on, and engaging in any other activity not related to the classroom activity. Students who engage in disruptive classroom behavior will be approached by the instructor and may receive a lower participation grade. If the disruptive behavior continues, students may be asked to leave the classroom and/or eventually be dropped from the course.
Cheating and Plagiarism: Plagiarism constitutes taking someone else’s ideas as your own even if you do not use the exact same wording. Anytime you use someone else’s ideas or words, you need to provide the necessary references and citations. Plagiarism includes (but is not limited to) having somebody else write your essays for you or using an essay from any informational source (such as the Internet, a book, a magazine, a newspaper, and so forth). If a student is caught plagiarizing, penalties can range from the student receiving a zero on the assignment to reporting the incident to administration (which may eventually result in a dismissal from the course and/or from the school).
