MIS Lab Security PolicyIT and Dean’s office established an official security policy. Students are not allowed to stay in the MIS Lab without a

Submission 2If you’d like to avoid any type of possible technical problems, please submit using a PC in the school computer lab

Submission 3When you submit an assignment (or exam), you MUST CLOSE the Microsoft office application (i.e., Word, PowerPoint, Excel and Access) COMPLETELY before you submit ASSIGNMENT (OR EXAM) FILES.

Submission 4That is, ONLY title of you file will be processed and accepted without including actual contents of your assignment (or exam).

And if an assignment requires submit several files, you must submit all files together at once. That is, you must "UPLOAD" all the assignment files together at once.

Course Guideline 1

Class Attendance Is required

More than two absences will significantly negatively

impact your final grade.

Notify me first by email prior to the absence.

Miss a class because of a documentable illness or other

reasonable cause, I will provide help. Otherwise, I do not

repeat any lectures, labs……

The attendance will be checked.

Course Guideline 2No interference Surfing the Internet without permission Typing (email, paper…) and cell phone texting Talking to classmates during the lectures - If you

have any question, let your instructor know directly. Do not discuss your questions with your neighbors

Bottom line…do not distract others Up to 30 % of your total score can be deducted

depending on the level of interference.

Course Guideline 3

Bathroom Policy Need to go to the bathroom?

Stand next to the printer and then wait for my signal.

Best! Wait until the “Break”… If you violet this policy, minimum 10% (based on

total score) will be applied.

Course Guideline 4

Late Policy All Students must be on time to the class. If you late more than 20 minutes without any

notification (at least 24hours), then it will be considered as “ABSENCE.”

If you violet this policy, minimum 10% (based on total score) will be applied.

Course Guideline 5

CSUB policy “Faculty have a fundamental responsibility to

maintain the integrity of the learning environment. When confronted by unreasonable disruption in the classroom, faculty are expected to initiate actions to correct such conditions. Such actions may result in disciplinary action ranging from removal from the classroom to formal disciplinary sanctions, including probation, suspension, or expulsion.”

Course Guideline 6

Peer Group Evaluation is a part of the grading scheme. Your evaluation is 100% confidential. To prevent free riding in the group, the contribution of each

member will be assessed. Each member is expected to submit a peer group evaluation

at the end of the quarter. No one will be allowed to see your evaluation.

Please remember that your final grade can be up or down graded based on the evaluation result.

a grade of 0. A written excuses from the appropriate person such as a

medical doctor is the only acceptable form of excuse.

Course Guideline 9Office hoursPlease DO NOT try to use office

hours to make up for a missed class (I do not repeat any lectures).
