Attendance
Attendance is mandatory.
Participation in class discussions, in-class assignments and labs,
and student professionalism are also factored into your classroom
grade. If you must miss a class, please notify me prior to class
so arrangements can be made. Excessive absences (more than 3)
will interfere with your ability to successfully complete this
course in most cases. This course will involve a lot of time.
Use lab time outside the scheduled class time to complete the
lessons if you are having difficulties completing them during
class. I am often in the lab during office hours, if you need
additional assistance.
Weekly
assignments
To avoid
being late, your labs should be on the server in their correct
folder by the specified deadline. When you have completed a lab,
you should save it in our class folder on the server.. The final
project must be turned in on the final day of class.
Lost or corrupt
data is never a valid excuse for late work in
class or in the commercial world. Rigorous backup and saving procedures
should be followed habitually. Losing a file is not justification
for not submitting an assignment. Following all submission instructions
is the responsibility of the student. Poorly named, misfiled or
corrupt files may not be graded
