What students should expect:
Prompt attendance to on-line classes

Students found not to be answering questions or participating will be graded down
Students should meet all deadlines for submitting class work
At certain points during a class, the teacher may ask all students to leave
the classroom and perform an assessed quiz (this usually takes around 15
mins – 20 minutes). Any student not performing the task may see a
reduction in their participation grade and a missing attendance mark.
These quizzes will not be given twice.
Many of the course assessments will be submitted through SafeAssign. This
program will detect any forms of plagiarism. Please make a note of this.
