Three missed absences in a row, or five total absences will result in the student being dropped from the course. There will be 1 point taken off for each class missed. Each student is expected to do the work required or to withdraw. Grades are determined by points earned. MSC and UAA's Policy on an Incomplete Grade Incompletes may be granted at the discretion of the instructor only if the student has a C average and is able to demonstrate extenuating circumstances.
Quizzes are take-home, due at the beginning of class.
There will be 20 points possible for each quiz. Quizzes will be discussed in class after grading. The student may write on any topic of interest related to the field of crisis intervention. The paper must be typed, double spaced, and documented, using the APA style of documentation. At least two of the references must be within the past five years.
