The MSOE grading scale will be used, though I reserve the right to award
higher grades to individual students if it increases fairness. In addition,
successfully demonstrating mastery of course outcomes is a prerequisite for
a passing grade. This includes completing assignments even if worth zero
points and taking the final exam.
Communication
Course materials will be posted at my class web
site https://faculty-web.msoe.edu/hasker/se3800/. I
also use email extensively; I expect you to read your MSOE email at least
once a day.
Labs, Assignments, and Quizzes
Late submissions will be penalized, and any work more than a week late will
generally be worth zero points. Missed quizzes cannot be made up, but the
lowest quiz score may be dropped.
Assignments are individual unless we explicitly state otherwise. You are
responsible for honestly completing and representing your work, for
appropriately citing sources, and for respecting the academic endeavors of
others. Electronic tools may be used to identify plagiarism. You will be
penalized for violating these standards.
Reasonable accommodations will be provided for students with physical,
sensory, cognitive, systemic, and psychiatric disabilities. Please discuss
any accommodations you may need with your instructor.
Attendance
Do not skip class! If you do happen to miss, be sure to check for
new materials and get the notes you missed from a friend before the next
class period. You are responsible for anything missed! If you need to be
excused from class for MSOE activities or religious observances, be sure to
me know in advance. If you're sick, it's obviously not a good idea to come
to class. This includes days on which there are exams; just be sure to
contact me as soon as you can get to a phone or computer.
When an exam is missed, I will determine whether to give you a make-up exam
or increase the weight of the other exams. All students must take the final
exam to receive a passing grade in the course unless the student has been
excused in advance.
