collaborative research, to avoid questions of plagiarism, should exercise extreme caution. If in doubt, students should check with the major professor. In addition to the other possible disciplinary sanctions which may be imposed through the regular institutional procedures as a result of academic misconduct, the instructor has the authority to assign an โ€œFโ€ or a zero for the exercise or examination, or to assign an โ€œFโ€ in the course.

  1. Classroom conduct โ€“ The instructor has the primary responsibility for control over classroom behavior and maintenance of academic integrity, and can order temporary removal or exclusion from the classroom of any student engaged in disruptive conduct or conduct in violation of the general rules and regulations of the institution.
  2. Official Course Enrollment - Students who are not on the official class roll may not remain in class. These students must leave class and may not return to class until they enroll in the course and their names show up on the official class roster. Please make sure you are in the correct section.
  3. Disabled Student Services โ€“ Any student who has a condition which might interfere with his/her performance in class is required to contact the office of Disabled Student Services. This office is located in room #117 Floyd Payne Student Center. The phone number is 963-7400. They will provide you with a document stating what type of classroom accommodations, if any, are to be made by the instructor. The student is to give a copy of this document to the instructor no later than the end of the second week of class. Failure to do so will result in the instructor making no special accommodations of any kind. Grading System The sum of your grades will be used to determine, both a Z score value and a percentage value. Thus, your final grade will be based upon criterion referenced standards, as well as norm referenced standards. The following Z values, as well as normalized scores based upon the percentages listed below will be used to determine your final grade. However, only the norm referenced grades will be reported to the TSU Office of admission and Records: NORM REFERENCED STANDARD GRADE CRITERION REFERENCED STANDARD GRADE Z = 3. 0 or higher = Above Avg. 90% -- 100% = A Z = 2. 1 or higher = P 80% -- 89% = B Z = below 1.9 = Below Avg. 70% -- 79% = C Z = 1. 0 = F 60% -- 69% = F This means that, depending upon how well you perform on all assignments, it is possible for you to earn a passing grade of โ€œAโ€, โ€œBโ€, or โ€œCโ€; the grade that you earn will represent your ability to use what you will have learned to make decisions that are based on objective, valid and reliable information, as well as your ability to initiate and conduct acceptable research, independently. If you are passing, but FAIL TO COMPLETE ALL REQUIREMENTS OF THIS COURSE, by the end of the semester, you may receive an "I" for your final grade until all requirements have been met. If all assignments have not been completed by the end of the fall semester, 2007, the "I" grade will be permanently changed to "F". Additional Readings/Resources American Red Cross (2006).
