2 Grading The following point-structure will be used in determining the grade for the course. Final grade will be based upon the total points received, the highest total in the class, and the average of the class. Class Participation & Attendance 5% Weekly Assignments 30% Midterm 30% Individual Final Project 35% TOTAL POSSIBLE 100% Grading scale: A A B B B C C C D D F 64 or below Final Project The final project for this class will be creating a website. The subject of it will be of your own choosing. Your website is due during your final exam time listed in the exam schedule on the USC Academic Calendar. During this time, you need to present your website to the class. You may present your website to the class during the lecture/lab time of the last week of scheduled classes (Week 15). If you do, then you will earn extra credit. Policies Exams: Exams cover material from the reading assignments, lectures, and lab projects. The exams are both closed book and closed notes. The exams will cover the material presented up to the date of the exam. Make-up policy for exams: In order to make up for a missed exam, the student must provide a satisfactory reason along with proper documentation. Usually make-ups are allowed only under extraordinary circumstances. Assignments: It is your responsibility to turn in your assignments on, or before, the deadlines as set by the instructor. Late assignments: Late submission of assignments will lead to loss of points. No assignments will be accepted after two weeks beyond the original due date. Before logging off a computer, students must ensure that they have ed or saved projects created during the class or lab session. Any work saved to the computer will be erased after restarting the computer. ITP is not responsible for any work lost. ITP offers Open Lab use for all students enrolled in ITP classes. These open labs are held beginning the third week of classes through the last week of classes. Please contact your instructor for specific times and days for the current semester

3 Academic Integrity The use of unauthorized material, communication with fellow students during an examination, attempting to benefit from the work of another student, and similar behavior that defeats the intent of an examination or other class work is unacceptable to the University. It is often difficult to distinguish between a culpable act and inadvertent behavior resulting from the nervous tension accompanying examinations. When the professor determines that a violation has occurred, appropriate action, as determined by the instructor, will be taken. Although working together is encouraged, all work claimed as yours must in fact be your own effort. Students who plagiarize the work of other students will receive zero points and possibly be referred to Student Judicial Affairs and Community Standards (SJACS). All students should read, understand, and abide by the University Student Conduct Code listed in SCampus, and available at: Students with Disabilities Any student requesting academic accommodations based on a disability is required to register with Disability Services and Programs (DSP) each semester. A letter of verification for approved accommodations can be obtained from DSP. Please be sure the letter is delivered to me (or to your TA) as early in the semester as possible. DSP is located in STU 301 and is open 8:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. The phone number for DSP is (213)
