LECTURES: Lecture attendance is expected, and I lecture on material beyond that in the text. You are responsible for all material presented in lecture whether or not it is covered in your textbook. Similarly, you are responsible for all material assigned to be read in your textbooks whether or not it is covered in lecture. The dates in this outline may be changed as necessary, and I will state such changes in class. Any announcements made in class are considered to have been disseminated to the whole class.
EXAMS AND GRADING: There will be one midterm exam and a final exam. Each will be worth 100 points. In addition, there will be Computer Lab homework/computer exams worth 140 points, and group SharePoint collaboration projects worth 60 points. Thus, there will be a total of 400 points for the determination of grades. Grades will be assigned based on a class curve, not a rigid point cutoff basis. The curve will be calculated, and

grades will be assigned as follows: z

z
First, a "top-of-the-curve" point will be calculated which will become equal to 100%. This number will be determined by averaging 300 points and the highest number of points actually attained by a member of the class. Second, all point totals will be converted to percentages by dividing each person's point total by the "top-of-the-curve" point. Percentages will be calculated to one decimal place, and thus 89.9% is used as 89.9%, not rounded to 90%. Third, percentage grade divisions will be determined. Although these cannot be determined until the end of the quarter, they will not be higher that a 90.0%-and-up = A, 80.0-89.9% = B, etc, distribution. Plus and minus grades will be assigned, with, for example, 80.0%-82.9%=B-, 83.0%86.9%=B, 87.0%-89.9%=B+. A+ grades will not be assigned.
EXAM/ASSIGNMENTS POLICY: NO EARLY OR LATE EXAMS WILL BE GIVEN. EXCUSE FROM AN EXAM IS GIVEN ONLY IF OFFICIAL MEDICAL DOCUMENTATION IS PROVIDED. REQUESTS FOR EXCUSE DUE TO PERSONAL EMERGENCIES [I.E., A DEATH IN THE FAMILY] NEED TO BE DISCUSSED WITH ME. The Western Washington University Registrar's Office states ( href="http://www.wwu.edu/depts/registrar/finals_index.shtml">see the footnotes on the Web page) that "If the final examinations schedule causes a student to take three or more examinations in one day, any of his or her instructors may arrange an examination later during Finals Week." Notice that this possibility ONLY applies to finals week, and that it is NOT required ("may arrange") of an instructor. I will NOT reschedule finals (or midterms) for individuals. Check the date and time of the final for this class carefully, and plan to be there! The General Catalog also states (page 34) that students not taking the final get "a failing grade for the course."
WORKING TOGETHER - ACADEMIC HONESTY AND DISHONESTY: I encourage you to study with other members of the class, and will assign you to small (4-5 person) groups. Talking with other class members can help you clarify your understanding of the subject. However, your work on exams and on any graded assignments must be your own. You may study together for exams and discuss the solutions to the assignments, but anyone caught cheating on an exam or turning in a copy of another person's assignment will be dealt with in accordance with the General Catalog's Appendix D - Academic Dishonesty Policy and Procedure. If you're not familiar with this section, you may want to review it.
HOMEWORK PROBLEMS AND ASSIGNMENTS: You will find it necessary to work homework problems in order to fully understand the material.
