Students may not sign up more than once every three weeks. Students who sign-up, are called upon, and answer correctly, get a participation credit, if they are unprepared, they will suffer an automatic deduction. I will call upon students at random as well. Additionally, you may raise your hand and offer to answer questions at any time, and, if you get them right, you may receive a credit for class participation. I will consider the quality of student participation and conduct to further adjust final grades, as I deem appropriate.
Attendance is mandatory.
Roll will be taken daily. Students arriving late or leaving the room during class are an undue distraction. However, I am willing to be flexible about allowing late arrival or early departure for good cause, such as a doctor's appointment, child-care problem or job interview, provided the good cause is brought to my attention beforehand. Professionalism in the Classroom . Maintaining a professional classroom atmosphere is the responsibility of both faculty and students.
