Evaluation & Grading Major assessments: The course mark will be based on laboratory work, reports for 6-7 experiments, two unannounced quizzes, a midterm exam, and a final exam. There will not be any make up, or additional exams regardless of the mark earned. Corresponding percentages: Quizzes 10% Midterm 20% Laboratory Work/Reports 30% Final exam 40% Grading Scale A (4.0) 93 - 100 Superior A- (3.7) 90 - 92 B+ (3.3) 87 - 89 Good B (3.0) 83 - 86 B- (2.7) 80 - 82 C+ (2.3) 77 – 79 Satisfactory C (2.0) 73 - 76 C- (1.7) 70 - 72 D+ (1.3) 67 – 69 Unsatisfactory D (1.0) 60 - 66 F (0) Below 60 Fail Course Policies and Expectations While You Are in the Class Students should be alert and willing to participate in class activities and discussions and refrain from having disruptive conversations during class. Students must bring to the class: a copy of the textbook or its soft copy in laptop or tablet, a notebook for writing course notes, a calculator, all the relevant notes and handouts for the course, the needed stationery, and a copy of the syllabus. Students are asked to limit the use of their laptop computers or tablets to class purposes. Students who violate this may not be allowed to use their personal laptop computers and tablets during the class lecture. Students should limit the usage of their smart/cell phones during the class lecture, whereas their usage is prohibited in quizzes, tests, exams and evaluations. Classroom Conduct Students are advised to conduct themselves in a collegial manner at all times when in class. Rude, disrespectful, aggressive, or threatening language or behavior will not be tolerated, and students displaying this will be asked to leave the class. Students should avoid distracting behavior, otherwise they may be asked to leave the class and marked absent for the day. Examples of distracting behavior include: Side conversations while others are speaking.
- 3. Fall 2019-AUIS-Department of Engineering Any other behavior that a student is warned against during class. Course Assessment: Exams and Quizzes Your course assessment will be based on final exam, a midterm exam, a term project per the preset dates (time table below) and 4 announced quizzes. One lowest graded/marked quiz will be dropped from each student’s grade. The duration of the midterm exam is 2 hours and it will be held _________________________________. The quizzes will be announced at least 2 days before, held within 20 minutes during regular class time. There will be no make-ups offered for exams and quizzes. Being absent at the time of the quiz means that your mark for that quiz is zero. The preset exam dates will not change unless absolutely necessary in which case the change must be done within the first week of the term. Please pay particular attention to this, as it is very important, all dates specified and confirmed/reconfirmed after the first week will stay as they are regardless of any other concurrent exam or other work you may have. You will only have one chance for everything, but you have plenty of time to prepare for all (starting from beginning of the term). Hence, manage your time properly and do not miss your chance of getting the grade you deserve. Regardless, please let me know of any special circumstances you may have that may disrupt your course responsibilities as soon as possible. Grade Disputes Unless grades are added up incorrectly, the grades will not change after quizzes/exams are handed back to the students. Any grade related issue might be discussed in detail during office hours, and not in class time. If there is a dispute concerning the final grade for the course, students have the right to make a formal grade appeal within the period set by the Registrar office. Details on this process can be found in the Academic Catalog, page 40 (please check the catalog for updated page number). Incomplete Grades In the unlikely event that it becomes necessary to assign an “I”, for incomplete, as the final grade in the course, the affected student(s) and professor will adhere to the incomplete grade policy on page 22 (please check in new catalogue) of the Academic Catalog. Revisions to the Syllabus This syllabus is subject to change. It is the duty of the instructor to inform students of changes in a timely fashion. Students are obliged to be cognizant of any changes. Attendance Every week there are three/four sessions of the course. The duration of each session is one hour. Students are expected to attend all scheduled classes, arrive on time, and remain in class until conveyed otherwise. You will be marked absent if you come to the class after the attendance is taken (within the first 5 minutes of the class). Attendance may be taken at the end of the class on any day. Tardiness and early departure are disruptive for students and the Professor and should be avoided. Students who leave the class will be marked absent for the lecture and no excuse will be acceptable. As per university policy, at the eighth absence session the student will be dismissed from the course with
- 4. Fall 2019-AUIS-Department of Engineering a grade of F. These cutoffs are absolute. As per university policy as stated in the Academic Catalog, there are no excused absences. Students will be warned after seven absences, that they will be dismissed from the course with a grade of F if they are absent one more session with a copy to the Dean of Students. Students may ask, outside the class time, to learn how many classes they missed. Expectations of Student Time AUIS adheres to the United States federal definition of a credit hour, as established by the US Department of Education. As a four credit-hour course, you are expected to attend four hours of direct instruction per week, and spend a minimum of eight hours out of class per week in homework, studying, preparing, and otherwise engaging with the material of this course. Academic Integrity Academic Integrity is honest behavior in a school setting. Academic integrity is more than the absence of cheating. It is necessary for students to truly learn new skills and develop as human beings. By struggling with his/her own studies and by making honest mistakes and discoveries, a student learns about the world and himself/herself. Using another’s work inappropriately prevents this intellectual and emotional growth. Academic Dishonesty (“cheating”) is any form of deceit, fraud, or misrepresentation in academic work. Academic dishonesty is the opposite of learning, because it prevents the student-writer from genuinely learning and responding to material. Plagiarism is one of the most serious forms of academic dishonesty. Plagiarism is using other people’s ideas and/or words without clearly acknowledging the source of the information. If a student uses content or grammatical structures from the Internet, a professional writer, or another student and does not inform the reader, he plagiarizes. A student who allows another student to use his writing without attribution is also guilty of plagiarism. Cheating will not be tolerated in this class. All major written assignments completed outside of class time must be submitted via www.turnitin.com. A student found to be cheating for the first time will receive a zero for the assignment and the Dean of Students will be notified. In the event of a second offense confirmed by the Dean of Students, the student will fail the course. A third instance of cheating will result in that student being dismissed from the American University of Iraq, Sulaimani. Students are directed to the AUIS Honor Code and the Academic Integrity policy section of the Academic Catalog (available online at www.auis.edu.krd). These documents provide guidance in cases of academic dishonesty, so we should all be familiar with them. Time Table Week Dates Topics Book sec.
