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 score shall be recorded until assignment is complete. Complete shall include condition and cleanliness of equipment; clean up of work areas; tool condition and return; all projects, supplies and materials being stored properly. Failure to bring books, notes, notebook, and equipment for a given class will result in a loss of grade for that class period. Unless the instructor specifies otherwise, all homework is due at the beginning of the next class.

Students are responsible for getting notes from other students when absent. Lab activities will continue on schedule. There will not be special lab sessions or classes. Missing lab activities may prevent individuals from performing advanced lab exercises for safety and expense reasons.

 

 

 

 

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

The professional industrial worker understands the importance of being on time and having  all the required tools, books and other materials as needed to successfully complete the job, this professional also under stands the need to follow rules and regulations as laid out by the employer, government regulatory agencies and insurance companies .That is why the rules listed below are given.

Additional Information

Additional info regarding cell phones.

While in the classroom or lab, no cell phone calls or texting will be allowed. Students are not to use the calculators on their phones. If a student choses not to follow this rule, then the student will have two options; turn their phone into the instructor for the remainder of the class and lab or, leave the class for the remainder of the class with loss of attendance points for the day. During tests, quizzes, mid-term, and finals, all cell phones will be turned off and placed face up on your desk until you are dismissed from the class.

Homework

It is to be understood that all home work assigned during class is due at the beginning of the following class period. If the work is not turned in at that time there will be a 20% grade reduction up until the beginning of the following class. Any assignments turned in past one session late will receive a zero. I prefer that all homework be written and printed off of a computer. If you need to handwrite your assignment, then proper spelling and complete sentences are required. If I cannot read your handwriting, I will have no choice but to mark wrong any assignments that you submit.
