Expected Student Behavior

\  

\
\ Notebook & Class Equipment
\
\ Students are required to take notes during lectures, and to turn in a notebook. These notes need to be on three ring bound note book paper for grading prior to the final exam. Articles, accumulated information, and useful reference material that pertain to relative course topics will be counted towards the notebook grade. Notebook should contain handouts, formula sheets, tests, assignments, and task list. All items will be graded from the notebook. Student shall furnish a scientific calculator and personal protective equipment to include safety glasses. Student shall have their own personal hand tools similar to those on the department service tool list. Student shall furnish necessary computer media for information transfer. Student shall furnish required text and Handyman Pocket Handbook.
\
\  
\
\ Shop Policy
\
\ Read safety handouts provided, use common sense, maintain safe shop practices, keep your Lab clean, and orderly. Keep all safety shields/guards, and equipment in place at all times. Notify your Instructor of faulty wiring/equipment, worn or damaged tools, or missing parts. No horseplay is allowed whatsoever. Academic disciplinary measures will be promptly administered to offending person(s). Please help the Instructor to maintain order so that he can be free to use your time for more effective teaching, and less time housekeeping. We all can enjoy the benefits of an effective and conducive learning environment. Remember to use your safety glasses, with side shields, when entering the shop area. Always perform proper Lock-out / Tag-out.
\
\  
\
\ Tools, Equipment, and Clothing
\
\ Students shall wear appropriate clothing to perform any work task assigned. Tools and equipment specified for this class and any recommended preliminary class in the Machining Technology curriculum are to be furnished by the student. Failure to dress for work or bring needed equipment may count as an absence. All tools should be properly used and cared for, thus allowing for longevity and safety of both the user and the tool.
\
\  
\

\ Stealing, vandalism, or pilferage will be dealt with severely!! No drugs, tobacco, drinks, or food allowed!

Grading Criteria

\  

\
\ Course Evaluations:
\
\ Students should complete all performance tasks on time at REQUIRED MASTERY LEVEL. Tasks, projects, and various assignments will be scored based on time; accuracy; neatness; completeness; procedure; skill; detail; motivation and attitude; safety practices; clean up; care of manuals, logbooks, and references; and other grading criteria. No task shall be rated until assignment is complete and correct. Complete shall include condition and cleanliness of equipment; clean up of work areas; tool condition and return of all supplies and materials to their proper location. Correct means that project meets all print specifications in order to be graded.  Failure to bring books, notes, notebook, and equipment for a given class may result in a failing grade for that class period.
\
\  
\
\ Final (Overall) Grade Policy:
\
\ The final overall grade will be computed by adding the points earned as follows:

\

\  

\
\ Makeup Policy
\
\ Students are responsible for getting notes from other students when absent. Lab activities will continue on schedule. Individuals will not receive credit for making up activities and there will not be special lab sessions. Some work can be caught up during regular lab times. Missing lab activities may prevent individuals from performing advanced lab exercises for safety and expense reasons.
\

\ Homework/Quizzes

\

\ Homework will be assigned from each chapter covered in the textbook.  Each session is subject to a Quiz covering both materials covered in that chapter and previous materials covered.  No late homework will be accepted.

\

\ Mid Term/Final

\

\ A comprehensive Mid-Term and Final exam will be given containing both machine operations and shop math.

Attendance

Attendance in class and lab participation is regarded as a requirement and an obligation for learning. Student is responsible for clocking-in and clocking-out with the provided system, just as they would at work. Failure to clock-in or clock-out will result in loss of points for that session. The Instructor will adjust system for classes that vary from schedule. All attendance points will come from time sheet. Tampering with the time system will result in the loss of all attendance points for that student. Attendance to the end of the last hour block or until instructor releases class is required in order to receive any of the points. Failure to bring required equipment will result in a loss of all points for the class period.
