Expected Student Behavior

Textbook,Workbook,Notebook & Class Equipment

Students are required to have the specified tool-kit or tools for this class, no later than the second class session. Students are required to take notes during class, these notes may be used during test

Safety Policy, PPE and attendance.

Safety is everyone's job,and it starts before you enter the shop area. A machine shop has rotating machinery,high voltage electrical equipment,hot metal,sharp metal and chemicals,all of which can harm or even kill you.Professionlism is another habit that all of us must excell at. That is why the rules described below are needed.

Rule#1. All students are required to have signed the attendance sheet and be setting at table at the start of class.

Rule#2. No headgear of any type are allowed in classroom, hats or caps may be worn in lab.

Rule#3. Break time will be set by instructor

Rule#4. Instructor will set break time for class. When break is over all students must be back at work assignments.

Rule#5. All students will participate in clean up.

Rule#6. All students will respect other student and instructors.

Rule#7. No food or drink in shop.

Rule#8. If you make a mess you clean it up.

Rule#9. Only College approved short sleeved or long sleeved shirts rolled up past the elbow are allowed in both the classroom and lab. These shirts must be buttoned and tucked into pants.

Rule#10. Students will have all required tools and classroom materials each day class meets.

Rule#11. No tobacco products of any type will be used in classroom or lab.

Rule#12. Only Safety glasses' with side shields, that meet or exceed ANSI Z87.1 spec will be allowed.

Rule#13. Only long pants are allowed. No baggy pants,pants that allow body parts to be exposed, or torn pants.

Failure to comply with rules#11-#17

First offense. The student will receive a written reprimand from instructor and be removed from that class, recieving no points for that day. Any quizzes or test that occur during that class cannot be made up and will counted as zero points.

Second offense. The student will be suspended from the class for the remainder of the semester and receive a FAILING grade for that class.

Failure to comply with rules #18 thru #20 will result in campus police being called to deal with student the student offender will be immediately suspended from the class for the remainder of the semester and receiving a FAILING grade for that class. Depending on severity of offence the student my be suspended from the college.

Tools, Equipment,

Tools and equipment specified for this class and any recommended preliminary class in the Machining Technology Curriculum should be purchased through the bookstore or you may purchase them by yourself, these tools and tooling have been choosen by the instructor for their quality and usefulness in helping the student to complete their required projects, within a set time limit and specified degree of accuracy. Any subsitutions by the students for a tool of lesser quality, is at the students own risk. Failure of a project because of sub-standard tools, or tooling that does not perform is no excuse a will be graded accordingly

Grading Criteria

Course Evaluations:

Students

Final (Overall) Grade Policy:

The final overall grade will be computed by adding the points earned as follows: Note Shop Practices includes the following criteria. Safety, clean-up, math, print comprehension, process planning, time management, shop practices.

Exam	100 Pts/Exam	2 Exams	100 Pts. possible
Projects	50 Pts/Project	11 Projects	600 Pts. possible
Final Project	200 Pts.	1Project	200 Pts. Possible
Final Exam	100 Pts.	1 Exam	100 Pts. Possible
		1000 Pts.Possible

1000 – 927 pts= A

926 - 843 pts= B

842 - 748 pts = C

747- 700pts = D

699 - 0 pts= F

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 be NO special lab sessions. Some work can be caught up during regular lab times. Missing lab activities may prevent individuals from completing lab projects.

Homework : Textbook, Workbook, Lab Reports and Final

Textbook: Required reading is to be completed prior to class, this will better prepare the student for the in class discussion on the subect matter covered in the reading.

Workbook: At the end of each chapter workbook problems will be assigned these work books will be graded with a project rubric.

Lab Reports: Before a project can be started a detailed lab report (process plan) will be written by the student. This graded report will contain such items as materials, procedures, apperance/organization. Other graded items will include spelling, punctuation and grammer. This lab report is part of the students homework and must be completed and graded by the instructor before a project is started. If a student does this in class they will lose valuable lab time and may not be able to complete the project in the alloted time. If a student starts or completes a project without an instructor signed lab report the student will recieve a failing grade for that project.

Final Exam and Project: A comprehensive final exam along with a final project will be administered. Failure to take the final exam or complete the final project will result in the student recieving a failing grade for the class.

Attendance

\ Attendance in class and lab participation is regarded as a requirement and an obligation for learning. Students will be expected to be in the class and seated by the start of each class period.Attendance roll will be called out at the beginning of the class and students not replying will be recorded as tardy losing ten attendance points.Roll will again called one-half hour after class has started, any student not replying will be recorded as absent and lose all points for that day.There are times that special circumstances arise but instructor needs to be made aware of these circumstances, the instructor will then decide if excuse warrants merit or not. Attendance will also means that until the end of class or instructor releases the class you are required to be there failure to be present during end of class roll will result in all points for that day being forfeited, again there will be times that special circumstances will be allowed but instructor needs to be informed and the the instructor will decide whether reason for leaving early is valid or not. Attendance also means that student has all the required material for said class, failure to comply with this is described in the below section describing student behavior.
