Attendance and ParticipationYour attendance and active participation are required both for your own success in the class, and for the success of the class as a whole. Absences equal to 20 percent of the class may result in reduction of your term grade by one full letter grade. For example, an A- would become a B-. Missing more than 20 percent will result in failure. If you absolutely must miss, please contact me ahead of time via email.Academic HonestyDePaul University is a learning community that fosters the pursuit of knowledge and the transmission of ideas within a context that emphasizes a sense of responsibility for oneself, for others and for society at large. Violations of academic integrity, in any of their forms, are, therefore, detrimental to the values of DePaul, to the students’ own development as responsible members of society, and to the pursuit of knowledge and the transmission of ideas. Violations include but are not limited to the following categories: cheating; plagiarism; fabrication; falsification or sabotage of research data; destruction or misuse of the university’s academic resources; alteration or falsification of academic records; and academic misconduct. Conduct that is punishable under the Academic Integrity Policy could result in additional disciplinary actions by other university officials and possible civil or criminal prosecution. Please refer to your Student Handbook for further details.Extenuating Circumstances and Special RequirementsIf for any reason, you are having issues with submitting assignments or completing the work please contact me immediately. Social Media GuidelinesThis class will spend the majority of its time crafting content desined for the web. As such we must adhere to proper web ettiquete as well as school policy.
