Please select True on this question to acknowledge the following policies concerning late or missed assignments: Grades reflect your performance on assignments and adherence to deadlines and course rules. If you miss assignments or tests due to acute illness or medical emergency, you must share acceptable documents from medical or other emergency service providers with the teacher, prior to the deadline if possible, or as soon as medically possible after the deadline. It must be clear from the documents that a medical situation existed that made you unable to do course work, and for what period. The instructor does not have to grant you accomodations for work that was missed outside of the documented period. Students who are prevented by a chronic medical condition (defined as a medical condition that lasts longer than one-quarter of the course) from completing significant portions or all of the course must contact their advisor as soon as possible and discuss the option of medical withdrawal. Students who decide to remain in the course despite a chronic medical condition that impacts their performance are in principle responsible for that decision, and not entitled to accommodations, unless such accommodations are approved by Student Accessibility and Inclusive Learning Services (SAILS). Students who remain in the course despite a performance-impacting chronic medical condition and without SAILS accommodations should notify their instructor as soon as possible. They should also provide medical documentation as soon as possible. In the absence of SAILS accommodations, it is up to the instructor to decide whether, or to what degree, accommodation is possible and reasonable, without fundamentally altering the expectations of the course or the examination structure. Retroactive accommodation beyond a duration of one-quarter of the course is usually not reasonable. Students with a condition that qualifies for accommodation should register with Student Accessibility and Inclusive Learning Services (SAILS) to have their condition recognized, and appropriate accommodations granted. For students who are registered because of a condition with SAILS, the instructor will not grant accommodations for that condition that go beyond those which are approved by SAILS. SAILS accommodations are not retroactive. Students are responsible for timely registration with SAILS and recognition of their condition.

The Incomplete is a get out of jail free card. If I find at the end of the semester that I’m failing the class, I can request an incomplete. This will entitle me to extra study time so I can take the final exam later, make up for missed homework and perhaps even retake tests.

Due dates for assignments are not a recommendation to do the assignment on that day. They merely represent the latest dates by which I’m allowed to finish assignments for course credit. Waiting until the due date to start assignments is not an academic success habit. When several assignments are due on the same day at the end of  week, that’s the teacher respecting the time constraints of students with jobs and families by refraining from micromanaging them. It is not an implied instruction to not work the assignments until that day.

During exams  you are expected and required to show your face and full work area to the webcam. This requirement is non-negotiable. Exams on which you do not show your face and full work area to the camera are considered unproctored and will earn a grade of zero. We recommend using an external webcam to more easily achieve the required camera placement. Please refer to the image below and the  articles for guidance on how to meet this requirement.
