Course Policies

Attendance Policy: 

NOVA Online's policy requires students to submit an assignment by a certain date so that you let us know that you are still interested.

First Assignment Due Date is: Feb 20. If you fail to turn in any item by Feb 20, you will be dropped from the class. 

Students are encouraged to meet with the faculty virtually at least once. However, students will not lose any grade if they wish not to participate in the meetings.

 

Grading Turnaround Time:

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

 

Late Work Policy: 

Please be aware that this course is designed in a way that allows you to learn materials one item/step at a time. I highly recommend that you do all the assignments on time. I understand that there are times when you need extra time to complete. You may turn in late work one week (7 days) after the due date. Thus, if the assignment is due on (3/1) late date is (3/8). Should you need more time, please contact me via email, and explain your reason. 

Quizzes: In order to do well on your exams, it is important that you complete the quizzes before the Exam. Doing your homework and taking the quizzes before the exam will help you in the Exam. However, I will accept Late Quizzes that are turned in by April 22.

Exams: You must take the exam on time. Students who need extra time must have reasonable excuses such as health issue, family emergency, or court order. 

At any time a student requests to take an exam after the due date, including Incomplete, the student will only be allowed to take the portion of the Exam and be graded on questions that are in Lockdown browser which are graded through automated systems. All other attachments or answers of questions that are required to be graded by the faculty will be given a zero. 

Class ends xx, but you must take the Final Exam before the end of that date. Testing Centers are not open, you will take the exam at home, via Zoom.
