Laboratory examination There will be an assessment on each chapter, two 2-hour examinations, one 2-hour final examination (on campus) and one laboratory examination. Computer literacy is necessary as students will be required to obtain course materials from the HCC Eagle Online website. Students are expected to attend all class and laboratory sessions. It is the student s responsibility to always sign his/her name on the attendance sheet. Any student that is more than 1 hour late to class or laboratory is considered to be absent and will not be allowed to sign his/her name on the attendance sheet. 2 points shall be deducted from the final laboratory report grade for each laboratory session missed. There will be no make-up examination unless there is a genuine excuse supported by an acceptable documentation in which case the student must make up the missed examination within one week of the time of the exam. Any student with more than a total of 4 absences in class and laboratory sessions combined

4 will be administratively withdrawn from the class. s must be submitted on due dates. There will be no time extension on any chapter assessment due date under any circumstance. Laboratory reports not submitted on the due date will attract a penalty of 2 points if submitted on the next day after the due date and an additional 1 point for each day thereafter. The penalty points shall be deducted from the laboratory reports grade. To minimize distractions in class and laboratory, students must turn off their cell phones or put them in the vibrate mode. Eating and drinking are not allowed in the classroom and laboratory. Any form of foul language is strictly prohibited. Please allow at least 48 hours for responses to your phone calls and s. Students must adhere to the rules and policies in the Houston Community College student handbook. Last day for students to administratively withdraw from course is 4:30pm on Friday, November 2, HCC Grading Scale A = points per semester hour B = 89-80: C = 79-70: 3 points per semester hour 2 points per semester hour D = 69-60: 1 point per semester hour 59 and below = F 0 points per semester hour IP (In Progress) W(Withdrawn) I (Incomplete) 0 points per semester hour 0 points per semester hour 0 points per semester hour AUD (Audit) 0 points per semester hour IP (In Progress) is given only in certain developmental courses. The student must re-enroll to receive credit. COM (Completed) is given in non-credit and continuing education courses. To compute grade point average (GPA), divide the total grade points by the total number of semester hours attempted. The grades "IP," "COM" and "I" do not affect GPA.
