Exams are not devised to reward hard work or effort, though hard work and effort generally contribute to greater course knowledge and, thus, better exam grades. Participation – 5% of your final grade Participation will be based on a random day I choose to take attendance and involvement in class. I may include attitude and personal interest in the course and course materials, and partaking in optional voluntary essay assignments given throughout the semester as part of the participation 5%. It looks like this: 1% attendance and 4% optional essay or voluntary participation during class. Many students opt for the â€Å"essay credit† in which case I will expect APA style with appropriate university student quality with proper grammar and spelling. I will also provide a CIVILITY bonus for showing respect in abstaining from inappropriate internet use during lectures. Missing an Exam: Make-up exams will be provided only for serious medical or compassionate situations (i.e., the death of a loved one) that have been approved by the Student Advisor (Amy Anderson: amy.anderson@uoit.ca) and/or the professor. You must have appropriate supporting documentation. Contacting the Student Advisor and/or professor before the exam lends credibility to your issues. Personal Issues: You will need a specific form from the Student Advisor for your doctor to fill out. ThisShow MoreRelatedLogical Reasoning189930 Words   |  760 PagesReasoning by Bradley H.
