I am not a mind reader.. • If you are having personal problems that are preventing you from being here I can not help if I do not know about it. • I know sometimes it’s hard to talk to someone face to face-so at the very least email me so I know what the heck is going on with you. • I am always willing to help but If I don’t know what’s going on I can’t help-I’m just going to think that you don’t care?
Extra Help • Lab procedures • Understanding a concept • Just to talk • Direction • w/resume If you don’t ask, I can’t help *Please understand that tutoring or meeting time will most likely be done during the lunch hour or during the afternoon or evening class time.
HOMEWORK Assignments • You will receive 10 homework points each day, if you are absent you may write a 1-page report over one of the chapters that we are covering and you will get 5 of the 10 points back. • Homework that is assigned to be done at home will be due at the beginning of class on the due date, or you will receive a 10% reduction of points. • Late assignments will only be accepted if you are absent on the due date. You must turn it in on the day you return to school. You will receive a 10% deduction in points. • The chapters in the book should be read prior to the accompanying lecture, in order to provide you with a better understanding of the material.
Assignments • It is YOUR responsibility to get any material you missed-therefore I would advise you to get to know your neighbor-if you are gone have them get a copy of the handout/notes etc. • This includes tests, it is your responsibility to take any missed tests the day you return. You will receive a 10% deduction in points. • Practical tests can not be made up due to the amount of time required to set-up. • If you do not take the test on the day you return you will receive a zero.
Quizzes and Exams • Quia-this is an online program that is used for misc. activities, quizzes, and final exams • You may do these at home/work any place you have internet access.

NO EXCUSSES will be accepted for incomplete quia tests or assignments. • If you choose not to do the quia work you will have PPS points deducted. • Quizzes are set for unlimited attempts it is in your best interest to obtain the highest grade possible • You can use book/notes other sources to complete these.
COMMITMENT By enrolling in school you’ve made a commitment to yourself that you will attend class and complete all assignments necessary to complete the program.
REMEMBER… • You probably enrolled in PIMA, because you could complete a program in 9mths- • We are going to cover a lot of material in the next 6mths so that means you are going to need to do a lot of work. • It is strongly advised that you read the chapter prior to me lecturing on it, this will help you to better understand the material when we discuss it.
What this means Some lab procedures can not be made up if missed. *sometimes arrangements can be made to participate in the lab during the afternoon/evening class. *Please realize it is not fair to your classmates or myself to have to stop everything just because you missed class.
My Job • Is to prepare you to be the best MA that you can be. • I’m going to put you in uncomfortable situations. • I’m going to randomly ask you questions to make you think. • I’m going to help you realize that even if you don’t know the answer you know how to find it. • I’m going to challenge you and make you challenge yourselves
