TEST AND ASSIGNMENT PROTOCOL
To encourage behaviours that will help students to be successful in
the workplace and to ensure that students receive credit for their
individual work, the following rules apply to every course offered
within the School of Community and Liberal Studies.
1. The professor will specify in writing test dates and times and due
dates and any special instructions for submitting assignments and
projects.
2. Students must write all tests at the specified times.
3. Unless otherwise specified, assignments and projects must be
submitted at the beginning of class.
4. Students must complete every assignment as an individual effort
unless the professor specifies otherwise.
5. Students are to keep, and make available to their professor, if
requested, a copy of all assignments and working notes until the
course grade has been finalized.
6. There will be no resubmission of work unless this has been
previously agreed to or suggested by the professor.
7. Students must submit all assignments in courses with practical lab
and field components in order to pass the course.
8. Missed tests, in-class activities, assignments and presentations
are awarded a mark of zero. If an extension or make-up
opportunity is approved by the professor as outlined below, the
mark of zero may be revised by subsequent performance. The
penalty for late submission of written assignments is a loss of
10% per day for up to five business days (excluding weekends and
statutory holidays), after which, a zero grade is assigned.
Business days include any day that the college is open for
business, whether or not the student has scheduled classes that
day.
9. Students, who will miss a test or in-class activity or assignment
or fail to submit an assignment on time due to exceptional
circumstances, are required to notify their professor in advance
of the class. A make-up test may be supplied for students who
provide an acceptable explanation of their absence and acceptable
documentation explaining their absence (e.g. medical certificate).
All make-up tests are to be written at a time and place specified
by the professor upon the student's return. Alternately, students
may be given an opportunity to earn the associated marks by having
a subsequent test count for the additional marks. Similarly,
exceptional circumstances may result in a modification of due
dates for assignments.
