The final examination must be taken as scheduled. In addition to the 340 possible points described above, the student will have the opportunity to obtain effort points. These points are designed to help the hard working student. The number of effort points given will be based on attendance, timely arrival to class, attitude, interest, class and mini-lab participation, alertness, assigned homework problems, and participation in exercise science research projects and other activities. The grade may be altered 0.5 due to effort points, usually this means that the diligent student who is between grades will receive the higher grade.
Attendance is very important and considered key to success in the class.
The student is expected to be in class on time. Habitual tardiness will be considered as absences. If you have a physical or learning disability which might affect your performance in this class, please contact the Disability Services Office as soon as possible. Once an evaluation has been made, appropriate accommodations will be determined. Your instructor values good writing in this course.
