WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR GRADE

If assignments are submitted into TaskStream by the due date and are not up to the instructor's expectations, the assignment may be returned for revision at the descretion of the instructor.

Most assessments are open book unless otherwise noted.  The exception will be anyterms from either textbook.

ON CAMPUS STUDENTS: Attendance is a major part of your grade.  There are no excused or unexcused absences. The difference between an A or a B, passing or failing, may be determined by class participation.  If you are not in attendance, you are not participating.  When you are absent, you are required to notify the instructor via email or in writing  the reason for that absence.  This will help document attendance.  You are expected to Sign In at each class meeting.

Correct grammar usage will be considered in your grade.  Rules for correct usage are available on this web page.  Go to the Table of Contents to click on that link. 
TJC provides a Writing Lab for help with your writing skills.  Use it if necessary.

If you consistently refuse to improve any grammar errors, this will adversly affect your grade.  It is important that educators have good communication skills. 
Remember, you are held to a higher standard of behavior and performance.
