Expected Student Behavior

\ STUDENT BEHAVIOR:

\

\ Students are expected to engage in appropriate "netiquette" within the ONLINE PORTION OF THIS CLASS, and to engage in civil behaviors in the classroom portion of this course.  Inappropriate behaviors, such as swearing, discussion of inappropriate issues NOT related to the courseroom material, or any type of intolerance or rudeness to other learners will not be tolerated and may result in failing the class, or dismissal from Amarillo College. Treat others as you like to be treated and everything should be fine!

\

\ Now, having said that, please remember that this is an COLLEGE LEVEL COURSE, and we will be discussing controversial issues in an ADULT MANNER!  You are expected to act like an adult in these discussions and realize that others may think and feel differently than you on a host of issues related to sociology!  Diversity is a GREAT THING and to be APPRECIATED in this instructors opinion.  If you find something offensive that is said by another student OR your instructor, please don't hesitate to contact me and discuss this with me.  However, it's important to remember that this course is not designed to CONFIRM YOUR OWN POLITICAL or RELIGIOUS BELIEFS, but rather to get you to think about sociology, society, and people in a bigger way than you may have already been exposed to. IN THAT, YOU MAY FIND YOURSELF UNCOMFORTABLE AT TIMES, AS YOU ARE BEING REQUIRED TO STRETCH OUTSIDE OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE! This is a part of what it means to get an education!  Obviously, learning to see the world in a different light is the goal of this course! 

\

\ If you have a complaint about this course, please contact me first.  If you are uncomfortable doing that, you may contact my supervisor, Mr. Jerry Moller at DURR 212A, 371-5297

\

\ If you have a concern that something you want to say or write that would offend others in the classroom or in the online course-room, run it by me first. Simply contact me via the AC ONLINE class email. As well, if you are aware of any student being mistreated or harassed in this course (including yourself), please bring it to my immediate attention.  We have zero tolerance for any student being mistreated here at Amarillo College. This will be a SAFE place for the expression of ideas and exchanges! Remember, you are an adult and differences of opinion and beliefs, and ideas is a critical part of adult education! Thanks! Dr. Harding

Grading Criteria

Your final grade for this course will be based on the standard grading percentages:

89.45-100% = A                 79.45-89.44% = B              69.45-79.44% = C

               49.45-69.44% = D                 Below 49.45% = F

Your final grade is based on the following items:

FOR THIS COURSE, ALL OF YOUR QUIZ QUESTIONS COME FROM LECTURES AND THE TEXT READINGS from the HELFGOTT textbook and the HOLMES AND HOLMES textbook, as well as required readings of various articles:

  • THERE ARE 6 Unit Quizzes worth 100 points each, and your quiz scores are worth 75% (74% actually) of your total grade.  You will be allowed to drop the lowest quiz score, so your actual grade will be based on FIVE quizzes (500 pts), rather than six. Each quiz is then worth 15% of your grade!  (5 quizzes = 75% of grade).  You are given 2 attempts for your first quiz, in case you are new to online learning (but only 1 attempt for the other quizzes, so be ready!).  There are thorough study guides given for EACH quiz, as well that will allow you to focus on the items that you need to learn. YOU SHOULD READ THE CHAPTERS carefully, and be sure you understand the context of the information! This will allow you to do well IF YOU DO THE WORK to PREPARE FOR THE TESTING SITUATION.
  • THERE IS A FINAL PAPER OF YOUR SERIAL KILLER PROFILE, THAT IS WORTH 125 points or 18% OF YOUR TOTAL GRADE.  If you are not a strong writer, but sure to take your paper to our WRITER's CORNER to get them to help you. Make sure they send me an EMAIL REPORT to my faculty email at djharding@actx.edu and you will get 5 extra points (out of 125 points) on your paper! This is a win-win for you...you get help with your writing AND with your grade!
  • DISCUSSIONS: THERE ARE FILMS TO WATCH FOLLOWED BY DISCUSSIONS RELATED TO THE CHAPTER TOPICS AND THE FILMS.  THESE DISCUSSIONS AND RESPONSES TO YOUR CLASSMATES, ALONG WITH THE FILMS WILL BE WORTH 11% OF YOUR GRADE.  YOU GET TO SELECT FIVE OUT OF SIX DISCUSSIONS TO PARTICIPATE IN.  EACH DISCUSSION IS WORTH 15 points and is about 2% OF YOUR total GRADE (5 DISCUSSIONS = 10% OF GRADE). Doing well on your discussion can help you with a low exam score!  Make sure your discussions are well written and thorough, and that you talk about ALL the questions being asked! As well, be sure you respond in a thoughtful way to one other student! This will maxmimize your grade.  DO NOT USE TEXTING LANGUAGE in your DISCUSSIONS! That will get you a 0 on the discussion!

___________________________________________________________________________

There is no MAKE UP POLICY for online courses.  Each of your six quizzes is open from the beginning of the course and each has a CLOSING DATE (THERE MAY BE A FEW DAYS AT THE BEGINNING OF CLASS WHEN ONLY UNIT 1 IS OPEN, BUT ALL UNITS WILL BE OPEN SHORTLY!).  If you wish to work ahead, you can.  Once the closing date has come, you may not take the quiz EXCEPT IN EXTREME AND EXCEPTIONAL CIRCUMSTANCES.  While it's always tempting to wait until the last minute to take your quiz, that strategy can be harmful in an online course.    Please don't wait until the last minute to take your quizzes.  Each of your unit discussions is due at the closing date for that quiz (for example, the discussion in the QUIZ 1 folder, is due by the closing date of the QUIZ 1).  

AS WELL, YOUR FINAL PAPER HAS A DUE DATE. The very last day that you can turn in your paper means just that! Once that date is past, YOU MAY NOT TURN IN YOUR PAPER FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER!  CLOSING DATES ARE MEANT AS A FINAL CUT OFF POINT, NOT AS A DUE DATE! It will be to your advantage to work ahead on all your class materials!!!  Note that you can turn in your final paper  3 weeks early and receive 15 extra points on a low quiz score, 2 weeks early and receive 10 extra points on a low quiz score, and 1 week early and receive 5 extra points on a low quiz score!  THE EARLY BIRD REALLY DOES GET THE WORM!

REMEMBER: AFTER THE CLOSING DATE FOR THE PAPER, YOU MAY NOT BE ALLOWED TO TURN IN YOUR PAPER. IN EXCEPTIONAL CASES, YOUR PROFESSOR WILL TAKE A LATE PAPER, BUT YOU WILL RECEIVE A SEVERE DEDUCTION ON YOUR PAPER GRADE FOR EACH DAY YOU ARE LATE! BE ON TIME!

PLEASE READ ALL INFORMATION OVER PLAGIARISM UNDER "BEHAVIOR" AS TO ACADEMIC HONESTY RELATED TO THIS PAPER. Any paper that is copied or has parts that are stolen or copied from other works, including the internet or websites, will receive a grade of 0!  Plagiarism will NOT be tolerated in this class! THERE WILL BE EXAM QUESTIONS ON ONE OF YOUR QUIZZES ABOUT PLAGIARISM, AND YOU ARE EXPECTED TO DO THE SLIDE SHOW PRESENTATION IN THE LIBRARY ABOUT PLAGIARISM. 

Attendance

\  "90% of Success comes from SHOWING UP"  ~

\

\  Due to the freedom that online courses offer you, it may be tempting to wait until the last minute to work on your course.  It is my experience that almost NONE of the learners who take this approach are able to finish online courses.  It is my suggestion, having taught online college courses for over fifteen years now, that you either work ahead or create a plan that allows you to be in the course present and working! What I've seen is that learners who have excellent attendance, working in their course at least two to three times a week at a minimum, complete the course in a timely manner and get the best scores on their exams. Obviously the choice is up to you.

\

\ NOTE THAT because all lesson content is open from the beginning of the course, all students may WORK AHEAD in this class.  Each unit has a CLOSING TIME, however, after which, the discussions and quizzes for that section are closed.  Because units are open well in advance, no make-ups will be allowed in this course EXCEPT in the MOST UNUSUAL of SITUATIONS! Work ahead and don't get behind!
