GRADING C RITERIA

Grading Method: Grades will be calculated using a weighted average with the breakdown as follows:

Quizzes 20% Exams 35% Lab Practicals 35% Laboratory Review Sheets 10% Total 100%

Grading Scale: 90 100% = A 80 89% = B 70 79% = C 60 69% = D 0 59% = F

I NSTITUTION P OLICIES AND I NSTRUCTOR P ROCEDURES

Quizzes : Weekly quizzes are given to inspire you to keep on top of studying and act as a gauge for how well youre doing in the class. They will cover the material from the previous weeks lectures as listed in the course outline. If youare not doing well on the quizzes and find them difficult, then that is a sign that you need to change your approach to studying for Anatomy and Physiology. I will drop your two lowest quiz scores. No make up quizzes will be given.

Written Exams: Anatomy and Physiology is mostly a factual subject with objective exams used as the main evaluation tool. Each exam will be based on lecture material and associated chapters from the text. The exams are NOT cumulative and only test on the material from the most recent section of the course. I will drop your lowest written exam score. In order to pass the class, each student must take and pass the last exam of the semester. No make upexams will be given.

Lab Practicals: Your understanding in lab is evaluated using lab practical exams. Lab practical exams will be the same week as the lecture exams and cover just the lab material from that section of the course. As the first lab practical nears,

I

provide

some

and

exams.

It

is

important

is

to

cometo class each week prepared, focus during lab, and review what youve learned every week. I will drop your lowest lab practical score. In order to pass the class, each student must take and pass the last lab practical of the semester. No make up lab practicals will be given

Laboratory Review Sheets: Laboratory review sheets will need to be completed turned in four times during the semester for evaluation. To be considered for evaluation, each set of review sheets must be stapled, and, your name and the date of each lab must be present on the first page of each set

Late Work: If I receive your work after the scheduled due date, points are deducted at 10% per day the assignment is late. Iunknown circumstances occur that will prevent you from submitting your work by the due date, call or email meimmediately. Work will NOT be accepted if it is more than 1 week late.

Attendance: Students are expected to attend and participate in all class meetings and laboratories. A student who expects tobe absent due to another school sponsored activity or compelling personal reason must make prior arrangements with the instructor. All course work must be made up as directed by the instructor. A student who does not adhere to instructor and College attendance requirements may be dropped from the course as defined in the Yavapai College General Catalog.

Cell Phone and Pager Policy:

Yavapai College is committed to providing a quality learning environment. All cell phones and pagers must be placed in a non audible mode while in classrooms, computer labs, the library, the learning center, and testing areas. Cell phones and pagers must be used outside these facilities. Any student found using a cell phone in any manner during an exam, lab practical or quiz will receive an automatic zero on that exam, lab practical or quiz.


4/8

Course Withdrawal: To officially withdraw from a course, the student must do so online through the YC Portal. Withdrawing from a course after the published deadline for withdrawal requires instructor approval and signature. A withdrawal W will no longer be assigned when a student does not complete a class. If you decide to withdraw from the class it is your responsibility to do so. Instructors will assign only letter grades for students who remain enrolled.If a student does not follow official procedures for withdrawing from a course, failing grades may be posted on the students permanent record.

Academic Integrity: Honesty in academic work is a central element of the learning environment. The presentation of another individuals work as ones own or the act of seeking unfair academic advantage through cheating, plagiarism or other dishonest means are violations of the Colleges Student Code of Conduct. Definitions of plagiarism, cheating, and violation of copyright and penalties for violation are available in the Yavapai College General Catalog.

Student Code of Conduct: Respect for the rights of others and for the College and its property are fundamental expectations for every student. The Student Code of Conduct outlines behavioral expectations, and explains the process for responding to allegations of student misconduct.

Disability Resources: Yavapai College is committed to providing educational support services to students with documented disabilities. Accommodations for a student must be arranged by the student through the Disability Resources Coordinator (Prescott Campus: 928.776.2079 or Verde Valley Campus: 928.634.6563).

STUDENT RESOURCES ( AS APPLICABLE )

Library services: Library services are available at the Prescott Campus and the Verde Valley Campus libraries. Both libraries are members of a countywide library network, which provides access to a wide range of information and resources at libraries throughout Yavapai County. Possession of a College library card entitles students to access materialshoused at member libraries. Instructors may place required course materials on reserve in the library or make assignments that require the use of library resources.

Learning Centers: Learning Centers are available on the Prescott and Verde Valley Campuses. These centers provide a variety of learning support for students including tutoring, adaptive computer and equipment for students with disabilities, and a networked general computer lab.

Tutoring: Call for details: Prescott 776 2085 or Verde Valley 634 6562 Online writing tutoring for any academic subject is available at www2.yc.edu/content/learningcenters
