Exams
Absence from an exam will incur a zero unless there is prior notification to the instructor with approval granted or there is an emergency that could not be circumvented. Students who miss an exam because of College or business related activities should notify the instructor before the absence occurs. Makeup exams will not be administered.
****Note Tests will be administered in the Math Testing Center. Appointments are required. For more information, please visit: https://www.actx.edu/math/math-testing-center
If you have been found to have cheated on a test, including helping another student cheat, a grade of 0 will be given for the entire course.
Design Project
The design project grade includes both a written and oral portion. You will be required to work in a group where you will complete work individually and as a team. A major portion of your grade includes participation so make sure that the group work is equally divided among team members.

Collaboration between students is allowed, but EACH STUDENT must turn in an ORIGINAL, COMPLETE assignment.
Classwork may be submitted early. NO CREDIT will be given for late classwork. Under very rare and exceptional circumstance, as stated earlier, you may submit a written request for consideration of the acceptance of your classwork if it is late.
After each assignment is assigned you will have one week to submit your work. Under no conditions will late classwork/homework be accepted.
Classwork/Homework will be submitted via Blackboard. Two of these grades will be dropped when calculating the final grade for the course.
Students are encouraged to attend, but attendance will not be required. You may only attend class on your designated day.
