3 Page 3 of 6 Academic Honesty. The policy stated in the Northwest Missouri State University Undergraduate Catalog will be followed. The Academic Integrity Policy for CSIS Classes posted on the course website clearly explains those types of behavior that would be considered academic dishonesty. You are responsible for reading this document and abiding by the guidelines described therein. Disability Accommodations. Students in this course who need disability accommodations/ modifications should present a copy of their official Northwest accommodation letter from the LAP/S Committee to the instructor during private office hours as early in the term as possible. Additional information can be found online at Attendance. This class will have many in-class activities, so attendance is strongly suggested. Some in-class exercises may have points associated with them and may not be announced in advance. A student who misses such an exercise due to an unexcused absence will not be allowed to make it up and will receive a zero. For an absence to be excused, written documentation must be provided and approved by the instructor. Arriving Late for Class. Students are expected to be on time for each class period. Exam Policies. The tentative weeks for exams are given in the course schedule. Exact dates and other details will appear on the course website under the weekly buttons. If you must miss an exam, it is your responsibility to notify the instructor prior to the exam. Make-ups for written exams will be given only for valid and verifiable reasons. Valid reasons include illness, family emergencies, and university-sponsored trips. Written documentation with suitable verification must be supplied before a make-up will be allowed. All exams are closed book, closed notes, unless explicitly noted in writing by the instructor. No calculators, cell phones, or other electronic devices can be used during exams unless explicitly allowed by the instructor. Quizzes. There may sometimes be short quizzes, usually worth five points or less. Quizzes will not always be announced in advance. They will usually be given at the beginning of the class. If you arrive late, after the quiz has started, you cannot take the quiz. If you miss a quiz due to an unexcused absence, you will receive a grade of zero on the quiz. If you have an excused absence, with the required written documentation, grades for missed quizzes will be replaced by the average of the grades of all the quizzes you take during the semester. Due Dates. Each assigned, graded activity will have a due date posted. Late assignments will not be accepted except in cases of documented illness or family emergencies.

4 Page 4 of 6 Grading Criteria (Points are estimates and may vary slightly) Components Points points each comprehensive final exam 200 Assignments; in-class exercises; quizzes Total Points Your score on each component will be posted in the online gradebook as soon as that component has been graded. You are responsible for checking the gradebook at least once a week to ensure that your grades are properly posted. If there is an error in grading, you must bring it to the attention of the class assistant or instructor within two weeks of posting. To satisfy the university policy that graduate students in 500-level courses must have requirements beyond those of the undergraduate students, a different grading scale is used for undergraduate and graduate students. Grading Scale Undergraduates Grading Scale Graduates Percent Range Grade Percent Range Grade % A % A >= 78% and < 88% B >= 80% and < 90% B >= 70% and < 78% C >= 70% and < 80% C >= 60% and < 70% D >= 60% and < 70% D below 60% F below 60% F For students who have no unexcused absences, are regularly on time, and act in a professional manner, the final grade will be curved by 0.5%. For example, 89.5% will be curved to 90%.
