 Academic Integrity

Your name (whether signed, written, printed, or typed) on any work submitted is your pledge that you have neither given nor received any unauthorized help on the work. Academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. If you are caught being dishonest you will receive a zero and your parents will be notified.

Due Dates

These assigned dates are extremely important. They indicate your willingness to get the job done on time. Therefore, all late work will receive a 5-point per day deduction and work not made up will count as a zero. Schedule your time wisely!

Make-up work

When you are absent, it is YOUR responsibility to find out what was missed. Please check the class website (edu2.0) for your work and assignments. Do not accept “nothing” as an answer from your classmates when you ask what we did. You will have the number of days you were absent plus one additional day to make-up any missed work without penalty.
