Attendance and Participation

Attendance Policy

Class participation is a key element of this course as we will have interactive exercises, group activities and class discussions. Therefore students will earn 30 points based on their attendance and participation in class and lab.  At the end of the semester, I will count up absences and late arrivals and if you have  4 or less, I will give you all of those points, regardless of the reason for the absence. If there are more than 4 late absences or late arrivals then there will be loss of points. If you have missed more than 4 classes, there is probably a serious issue and you should come to see me. Hopefully, we can figure out a way to support you so that you can overcome whatever obstacles are hindering you.
