OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE: At the conclusion of this course, the student will be able to:
PROCEDURES FOR ACCOMPLISHING OBJECTIVES: Among the methods used to accomplish these objectives are:
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS: For satisfactory completion, the student is expected to:
EXAMINATIONS & PROJECTS: A midterm and a final examination are scheduled, as indicated in the outline of topics. (At least two weeks notice will be given if changes are made to the examination schedule.) Projects (to be added to the website) will be assigned during the semester.
DEADLINES & MAKE-UPS: Announced deadlines will be maintained unless specific permission is granted by the instructor for an extension. Make-up exams are discouraged; make-ups are granted, at the discretion of the instructor, only when the student demonstrates that serious circumstances prevent taking a regularly-scheduled exam.
GRADING POLICY: 40% of the final grade is determined by the student website and projects assigned during the semester, 25% from the midterm exam(s), and 35% from the final exam, (Attendance does not directly affect the final grade; however, class and lab participation may also be used to modify the calculated final grade by up to 10% in either direction.)
HOMEWORK & LAB POLICY for CS-35: The production or modification of web pages on a student's website is the method for submitting most (or all) assignments in this course. Note that projects are to be done mostly between classes (using any computer that has a Browser and access to the World Wide Web, including those in the school library and/or at home), and that in-class laboratory time should be reserved for help with problems as well as learning new material and techniques.
ATTENDANCE POLICY: Attention is directed to the following statement of college policy:
"The college expects that each student will exercise personal responsibility with regard to class attendance. All students are expected to attend every class session of each course for which they are registered. Students are responsible for all that transpires in class whether or not they are in attendance."Consequently, each student in this course is strongly advised to make standing arrangements with another individual student to take detailed notes, collect handouts, relay announcements, etc., in the event 'e doesn't show up at class. In other words, find a "buddy" to cover for you! Do it now, not after you've missed a class. This instructor does not give grading credit for mere attendance, nor is credit lost for absence. By all means, contact the instructor for advice before (or after) it is necessary to miss a class; however, having a "buddy" take detailed notes is strongly advised, and the student remains responsible for "all that transpires in class".
Note also that the college defines "Excessive Absence or Lateness" as "more than the equivalent of one week of class meetings". While attendance is not a component of the grading policy for this class, under college policy "Excessive Absence or Lateness" may lead to failure in a course or removal from the class roster, at the instuctor's option.
RECORDING DEVICES: Audio (video) recording or photography of lectures, without prior permission of the instructor, is strictly forbidden. Upon request, such permission will be easily granted for such recordings for non-commercial use only, restricted to students currently registered in this course.
