All projects and exercises must be submitted on or before the date and time specified. Late assignments will receive a 10% grade reduction per day, as provided in Sheridan College policies. Work more than one week late (on the 8th day after the due date, or 5 school days) will not be graded unless a prior arrangement has been made with the instructor. There will be no resubmission of work unless, under exceptional circumstances, this has been agreed to or suggested by the instructor. If there is a valid reason for the late submission, the student must notify the professor no later than the date the project is due to indicate it will be late. If the reason is deemed to be valid, there will be no late penalty. FAHCS Evaluation Protocol The following protocol applies to all items listed within course outlines' evaluation plan within the Faculty of Applied Health and Community Studies, unless superseded by program protocol. Students are responsible for keeping track of all test dates and times, as well as all due dates for course evaluations and any special instructions for submitting assignments and projects as supplied to the class by the professor. When submitting assignments and projects online in SLATE, students are also responsible for checking to ensure their work was submitted as required and uploaded successfully. Students must complete all graded activities at the specified times. Missed tests, in-class activities, and presentations are awarded a mark of zero. The penalty for late submission of assignments is a loss of 10% per day for up to five calendar days (excluding statutory holidays) whether the student has scheduled classes those days or not, after which, a grade of zero is assigned. Under exceptional circumstances, an extension or make-up opportunity may be approved as outlined in #3 below, and the mark of zero may be revised by subsequent performance. Students who miss a test, in-class activity, assignment or do not submit an assignment on time due to exceptional circumstances are required to notify their professor in advance of the class whenever possible. An opportunity to make up missed graded activities, may be extended to students who provide an acceptable explanation of their absence and/or acceptable documentation explaining their absence. Any approved make-up tests and assignments are to be completed in the manner outlined by the professor. Exceptional circumstances may result in a modification of due dates for assignments. Assignments and projects must be submitted at the beginning of the class in which it was due, unless alternative times are clearly specified by the professor. In keeping with Sheridan's Academic Integrity Policy, students must complete each assignment and test individually unless the professor specifies clear course instructions that indicate otherwise. Since there may be instances of grade appeal or questions regarding the timely completion of assignments and/or extent of individual effort, as well as questions about academic integrity, etc., students are strongly advised 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. There will be no re-submission of work unless, under exceptional circumstances only, this has been previously negotiated between the student and the professor. Students must submit ALL evaluations in courses with practical lab and field components to pass the course. In relation to graded group activities: students' individual academic accommodations will be considered and reviewed with the professor as deemed relevant to the course.
