All assignments have a 24hr grace period after their official due date. I also offer extensions to anyone who needs them.

Semester assignments -1 point for each day after the 24hr grace period

Final Assignment -4 points for each day after the 24hr grace period  

Assignment Re-Do Policy:

All students unsatisfied with course assignment grades may submit ONE re-do per assignment. A re-do is an opportunity to get full points on any assignment turned in.

Important information about Re-do’s

• Re-Do deadlines will be announced the week after assignments are graded. No re-do’s will be accepted after the announced deadline. This is non-negotiable.
• All re-do’s will be submitted to me via email with subject line “[Assignment Name] Re-do”
• There will be no re-do opportunity for the final assignment. So, please review it carefully.
• Those who submitted their assignments late may still submit a re-do however the late penalty will still apply.
• Everyone except those who received full points on the assignment is eligible for a re-do.

Extra Credit Opportunity

Various extra credit opportunities will be given in class including two Kahoot review games!

Attendance

Students are allowed up to 6 unexcused absences before they begin harming their grade in the class. All absences where a student does not contact the professor beforehand will be regarded as unexcused. However, if students send an email before class starts I will be able to excuse the absence.

Participation

All students begin the semester with full credit for participation. Students retain full participation credit by contributing to class discussions, engaging in group activities, staying focused during class, consistently turning in their assignments, Assignments are of high quality, and/or visiting me during my office hours. If a student is not paying attention in class, consistently not participating in group activities, Not turning in assignments, turning in poor work, clearly not attempting to understand course material, and or are disruptive in class they will loose participation points.
