Students are expected to read and reflect on the assignments from the text book and other sources, and to complete the weekly assignments on time.
Academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. Students should refer to the university catalogue for a definition of academic dishonesty and its penalties, or they should go to this Web Page and familiarize themselves with the relevant material.
The Turnitin system will be used to ensure that students' work meets an acceptable standard of originality.
Grades will be based on Papers and weekly class assignments.
The course is divided into 15 units corresponding to the weeks of the semester.
Each weekly Unit will conclude with an assignment, which is to be completed and submitted via the BlackBoard-Turnitin page by 9 am on the following Monday.
Plagiarism and Cheating of any kind on an examination, quiz, or assignment will result at least in an "F" for that assignment (and may, depending on the severity of the case, lead to an "F" for the entire course) and may be subject to appropriate disciplinary action. See the Student Handbook for further information. I expect that you will adhere to the academic creed of this University and will maintain the highest standards of academic integrity. In other words, don't cheat by giving answers to others or taking them from anyone else. I will also adhere to the highest standards of academic integrity, so please do not ask me to change (or expect me to change) your grade illegitimately or to bend or break rules for one person that will not apply to everyone. Plagiarism is a serious offense. When in doubt, please cite your sources! Please refer to the Graduate Catalog for information concerning plagiarism; action can include, but is not limited to failure of the assignment; failure of or a reduced grade for the course; suspension or dismissal from your program of study.
