If you accumulate more than two unexcused absences , I will meet with you to discuss your future in the class. Many of the in-class exercises scheduled this semester require team participation. Your team will be less effective if members are not present. It is also expected that you will come to class prepared. Pop quizzes are always a possibility and will occur during class periods.
Students are responsible for attaining course objectives and completing the required activities.
Class absences seem to quickly influence student success with the coursework and on-going team activities. You will lose class participation points for all unexcused absences. At the end of the semester, your team members will have the opportunity to evaluate you and your amount of participation on team projects. Part of your class participation points will be awarded based on team evaluations. Occasionally, the class may dismiss prior to the scheduled class ending time.
