  4. Prerequisites & Corequisites • ACIS 2116 (prerequisite) • ACIS 2504 (corequisite)

  5. Attendance Policies • If you miss a class • you are still responsible for turning assignments in on time. • you should contact one of your classmates (NOT your professor) to find out what you missed. • See someone in Pamplin 1046 if you must miss class for an extended period of time

  6. Exams (3 @ 150 pts each) QuickbooksAssignments (4 @ 20 pts and 1 @ 60 pts) Other Assignments & Participation Total 450 140 30 620 Grading: See syllabus for grading scale. No plus/minus grades will be given. Exception to the grading scale: you must earn a C or higher on at least one of the three exams for the scale to apply.

  7. Grading: • All grades will be posted through Scholar. If you should notice an error in your grade, you should submit the graded assignment to me with a note indicating the error. This submission should be made within two weeks of the grade being posted.

  8. Policies for assignments • All assignments are due at the beginning of class on the due date. • Late assignments will be subject to the following penalties: • 10% of the total possible points for late submissions on the due date until 5 pm (includes assignments submitted in class after I have collected them) • Plus additional20% penalties for any portion of each 24 hour block of time thereafter.

  9. Policies for assignments • All graded assignments and tests can be submitted for a re-evaluation of the grade if you… • Submit a written request within one week of the date the assignment was returned to the class. This request should consist of a sheet that: • Identifies the specific questions or aspects of the assignment that you want re-evaluated. • Explains why you feel your grade on these parts was not accurate. • And suggests the number of points that you feel should be given back • A re-grade request may result in the re-grading of the entire assignment which could result in additional points being taken away as well as points being added back.

  10. Policies for assignments • No “extra credit” assignments will be given. Grades will be based on the grading criteria established in the syllabus • Do not make requests for policy exemptions in front of other students (e.g. more time for an assignment, rescheduling exams, being late to class when an assignment is due, etc.). If you do, they will be denied. If a matter is important enough for you to ask for an exemption, then you should contact me privately.

  11. VT Honor Code The Honor Pledge - “I have neither given nor received unauthorized assistance on this assignment” The Honor Code expressly forbids: • Cheating , Plagiarism and Falsification All assignments and exams are to be completed individually unless specifically stated otherwise. The Quickbooks assignments are individual assignments and should not be discussed with other students.

  12. Exams • No alternate exam times will be scheduled without prior approval and valid documentation. • Job interviews are not considered acceptable reasons for missing an exam. • Make arrangements with the companies you are interviewing for other days • A list of exam dates is shown in syllabus • If you are too ill to take an exam you must have a note from the doctor explicitly stating that you are too ill to attend classes. • Exams are the property of the professor and should never be removed from the classroom. • If you are not currently registered in the class you cannot take an exam.

  13. Class Participation • Occasionally assignments will be assigned in one class period and be due at the beginning of the next class period. If you are absent you are still responsible for completing the assignment by the assigned due date. These assignments are part of your participation grade. • I will also announce that certain class sessions will focus on discussing questions from the book. Your participation on these days will affect your participation grade.

  14. Other Policies • E-mails sent to me before 5pm (Monday through Friday) will usually be answered by the end of the same day. • E-mails sent to me after 5pm (Monday through Friday) or on the weekend will not necessarily be answered the same day. • I will schedule appointments with students outside of my regularly scheduled office hours if they have a conflict with my scheduled hours and if I am able to be available. The more notice I have for an appointment, the better the chance that I can be available.

  15. Special Accommodations • Students requiring special accommodations throughout the semester (include during tests) should notify the professor during office hours of the first week of the semester.
