What if I'm unable to attend class?

TCC policy is that if you miss more than 15% attendance, you will be removed from the class roll/roster.
This means if you miss more than three absences, you will be removed from the course.
Communication is key - please reach out if you will not be able to make it to class!
Points are earned for being in class; if you miss, those points may be made up with makeup work - however, this does not "remove" the absence from the course record, they are still tracked per TCC policy.
If you are sick, stay home. Please be mindful of the health of the class as a whole. If you are out sick and have documentation, you will not lose points.

How do I reach Ms. Fuller if I have questions?

(1) Send a message in Canvas

- On the left side of your screen, there is an icon called "inbox" that looks like this
- Click the email icon to open your Canvas mailbox
- In the upper right-hand corner of the screen, there is a "compose" button that looks like this
- Click on the compose button, and select our course from the drop-down menu
- In the "To" box, select "Teachers" from the drop-down menu
- Select my name (Erin Fuller)
- Type your email subject and body text, and then click send.

(2) Come see me in office hours!

I am here to help you succeed in the course, just schedule a time and stop by, or send a Canvas message if you do not see a time that works for you. We can choose a time that works for both of our schedules. 😊

- Schedule office hours by clicking the picture below (link attached)
- To get to the Zoom office for your appointment, use the link below

- Password: MSFULLER

(3) Send an email to my efuller@tcc.edu email

- This is probably not as fast as sending a canvas message, but it is still a fine option! When you send a message in Canvas, you are only among student messages, not mixed in with other TCC emails, so I suggest Canvas messages as a first option, but you can certainly email me anytime!
