Recovery of missed information will be the responsibility of the student.If you miss a day you need to find out what you missed. Class begins at the scheduled time. If you are not in your seat in class or at the designated locationduring laboratory exercises, you will be counted as tardy. The student will be required to show an acceptable understanding of the topic(s) covered during their absence. Check syllabus for your instructor’s policy regarding attendance.
Professional Attire:
Every student will be required to wear an approved AC logo shirt to both class and lab.

registered.
Pants will be:
• clean and well maintained
• no large rips or tears
• held at the waist (i.e no sagging)
• blue jeans or long pants (no sweats/exercise pants)
• have no hanging chains/loose strings (safety issue)

the laboratory.
There will be no caps, hats, bandanas, beanies, or hoods allowed to be worn in the
classroom. Lab attire will be determined by your instructor. Please check your syllabus.
Your Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) shall be worn when indicated by the

differences then you should seek resolution from the immediate supervisor of the
instructor or the course coordinator.
NOTE: Compliance with the Amarillo College Technical Education Code of Professional Conduct is mandatory for class participation.
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. 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 may result in a failing grade for that class period.
Homework will be due on the following Monday, if not then points will be deductedfor missed deadlines. No homework will be accepted the week of the final.
Final (Overall) Grade Policy:
The final overall grade will be computed by using the percentages as follows:
Homework 20%
Attendance 10%
Quizzes 20% (Cell phones must be put away during quizzes. Students caught using a cell phone during the quiz will receive a failing grade for that quiz.)
Labs/Activities 40%
Final exam 10%*(Cell phones must be put away during the final. Students caught using a cell phone during the final will receive a failing grade for the final.)
* A grade of 60 (D) or better must be made on the final for successful completion of the class.
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. The beginning grade for any make-up activities is a 75, any errors will be deducted from that.
Attendance in class is regarded as a requirement and obligation for learning. Students are expected to regularly attend scheduled classes.
The deadline for dropping this course is in the course catalog and in the "Additional Information" section at the end of this syllabus. If you stop attending class and do not officially drop the course by this deadline, you will receive an “F” for the course.
Four (4) absences in any one semester may be cause for students to receive a failing grade for the course.
It is the responsibility of the student to make up any work missed due to absences and to gain missed lecture notes through outside reading and/or note from classmates. The beginning grade for any late work is a 75, any errors will be deducted from that.
If you are going to be late or absent, please notify the instructor as soon as possible.
