Recommendations:
Begin to do your homework from today, August 22, till the
last day of class. Set your goal for the class right from the
beginning, and work tirelessly toward it; do not let anyone or anything
divert you from your goal. Be focused on your studies, and you will
succeed. Be sure to attend classes regularly, and to diligently deal
with any questions or concerns you might have. Good luck.
Evaluation:
- Two in-class tests (Monday October 17;
Monday November 21).
- Six Quizzes (Monday Sept. 12; Monday Sept. 26;
Monday Oct. 10; Monday Oct. 31; Monday Nov. 14; Monday Nov. 28)
- Cumulative Final exam (Wednesday
December 07, 0945-1145AM, same
room).
The two in-class tests will make up 50% of the final
grade while the five best quizzes will account for 20% of the final
grade. The final exam is cumulative, and will be worth 30%. You
will be required to produce a photo ID before taking any of the tests,
and before writing the final exam. Arrange to
be in the room about ten
minutes before the class starts; do not arrive late on a quiz or test
day, else you will not be allowed to take the quiz or test, and you'll
get a zero. For students who took all
the six quizzes and the two tests, we will also use the alternate
grading scheme:
Term work 50%, and final exam 50%; whichever produces the highest
grade. No calculators, or ipods, or
pagers or cellphones are allowed during the exams or class time; you
are not allowed to use or check these devices during the exam or class
time, they must be off. There will be no make-up for missed tests
or quizzes. If you miss a test/quiz and you produce a doctor
certificate indicating that you were sick and unable to write the
test/quiz, then the corresponding grade will be added to the final exam
grade, otherwise, a zero will be recorded for any missed test/quiz.

Academic Misconduct:
FIU is a
community dedicated to generating and imparting knowledge through
excellent teaching and research, the rigorous and respectful exchange
of ideas, and community service. All students should respect the right
of others to have an equitable opportunity to learn and honestly
demonstrate the quality of their learning. Therefore, all students are
expected to adhere to a standard of academic conduct, which
demonstrates respect for themselves, their fellow students, and the
educational mission of the University. All students are deemed by the
University to understand that if they are found responsible for
academic misconduct, they will be subject to the Academic Misconduct
procedures and sanctions, as outlined in the Student Handbook.
Incomplete grades:
It is extremely difficult to qualify
for an incomplete grade. An incomplete grade is not a substitute for a
failing grade. In order to be considered for an incomplete grade, the
student must have completed at least seven-eighths (7/8) of the course
and must be passing with a grade of C or better.
Important Dates:
October 31 is the last date to
drop the course with a DR grade. It is of a great
importance that you accurately assess your course performance prior to
this date.
University closed on: M Sept. 05(Labor Day), F
