• For group work, the attached rubric defines the individual accountability within group work.Guidelines for Assignments:1. Assignments are to be printed or clearly hand written on an A4 blank or lined plain paper.2. Marks will be deducted from all late work.Attendance Policy:I. Attendance will be taken each time. Thus, missing a class seriously affects grades. In addition, any student who would miss more than

three classes will be subject to be forbidden from entering the final exam.2. Mobile phones must be turned off in the classroom; violating this rule will result in not taking the attendance of the student.3. If any student enters late in class two times, on the third time her attendance will not be counted.Academic IntegrityThe faculty expects from its students a high level of responsibility and academic honesty. Because the value of an academic degree dependsupon the absolute integrity of the work done by the student for that degree, it is imperative that a student demonstrate a high standard ofindividual honour in her scholastic work.Scholastic Dishonesty: any student who commits an act of scholastic dishonesty is subject to discipline. Scholastic dishonesty includes but isnot limited to cheating, plagiarism, the submission for credit of any work or materials that are attributable in whole or in part to anotherperson, taking an examination for another person, any act designed to give unfair advantage to a student or the attempt to commit such acts.Plagiarism, especially from the web, from portions of papers for other classes, and from any other source is unacceptable and will be dealtwith accordingly.Withdrawal from ClassThe administration of this institution has set deadlines for withdrawal of any college-level courses. These dates and times are announced in thedepartment. Administration procedures must be followed. It is the student's responsibility to handle withdrawal requirements from any class.
