At the text book's Web site there are on-line tests under each chapter. Students should take advantage of these tools as much as possible to prepare for exams. A make-up exam is given only for emergencies or illness that can not be avoided and must be verified in writing by a credible source. The instructor reserves the right to decide who is a credible source and if the emergency is warranted and that decision is final. Conference responses should be posted on the due date or points may be lost.
Academic dishonesty is failure to maintain academic integrity.
It includes, but is not limited to, obtaining or giving aid on an examination, having unauthorized prior knowledge of an examination, doing work for another student, and plagiarism. If a student has questions or problems with any specific text material or assignments, e-mail the Instructor anytime or discuss them during Virtual Office Hours. Class announcements will be made three or four times a week, however, students should check WebTycho at least every Monday morning. Responses and comments will be made to students' contributions and responses to the Discussion Topics. Remember to keep a back-up of all submissions.
