While exams in the course will not parallel assignments exactly, skills learned in carefully completing all assignments and in participating in class discussions should contribute substantially to good performance on exams. Back to the top Portfolio Your completed assignments in this course form a portfolio of your skill accomplishment. It is useful to keep this portfolio for reference in the more advanced classes. Some students even show it to prospective employers as evidence of computer experiences. Attendance Policy and Class Participation Class attendance is required.
Late arrival is highly discouraged.
Students will be called on to discuss assigned materials and completed homework assignments. Absence or lack of preparation will reduce the student's class participation grade. Back to the top Study Buddy You should keep the phone numbers, address or e-mail address of at least one study buddy in the class. You are encouraged to share your notes, collaborate in assignments, and study for the tests as a team or a group. During the first few weeks of the semester, you should find out how this course is different from other courses and prepare yourself accordingly.
