Course Policies

Attendance Policy: Y ou are expected to check into the course on at least a weekly basis; to engage your fellow class members on the discussion board at least weekly (more is better!), and to complete the readings and assignments during the assigned module. 

Late Work Policy: Turn in your assignments on time, during the module they are scheduled. I reserve the right to not accept any work that is turned in past its due date. Work turned in after the due date is liable to a reduction in grade (A to B, B to C, etc.)  for lateness. 

Grading Turnaround Time:

All completed assignments will be graded no later than seven days from the submission date, and sooner when possible.
