ASTR 25, Sections 1060, 1066, 1069
Course Format: Online-Asynchronous.
No "live" meetings in-person or online.
The course is not self-paced. There are due dates by which work must be completed.
All course content is delivered, accessed, and completed via Canvas (a laptop or desktop computer is recommended rather than a mobile device for some content).
Some assignments require remote participation with classmates.
Grading Policies:
Quizzes are auto-graded upon submission by Canvas. Canvas will save the highest score of three attempts.
Discussions are graded based upon participation with classmates. Exceptional posts/exchanges will earn extra credit.
Activities are graded for completion; incomplete activities receive partial credit. Pay attention to instructor feedback and comments for corrections/suggestions.
Practice Sets are graded for completeness and correctness. Partial credit is awarded to attempted responses, even if incorrect. Pay attention to instructor feedback and comments for corrections/suggestions. Practice Sets may be resubmitted for regrading throughout the term.
Exams are graded for completeness and correctness. One timed attempt is allowed per student per exam.

Wait-list Policy
Wait-list Policy
FALL 2025:
Term Start: Tuesday 08/25
General Info: Prior to the official start of the term, wait-listed students will automatically be moved into a course as space opens.
Once the term begins, instructors add approvals for students to complete registration via My ECC > Register for Classes > select course > “Register Now”.
Instructors may revoke approvals if students don't do this in a timely manner.
Wait-listed students are approved in the order they appear on the wait-list ("first come, first served") if space is available.
Students who are not on the wait-list need to email their request to the instructor, including their ECC student ID number.
Wait-listed students have priority, but adding still depends on space available.
My Policy:
On the first Monday of the term, I approve the first few students on the wait-list.
Enrolled students have two tasks they must complete in order to reserve their place in class (it's like showing up on the first day).
If these tasks are not completed by the first Monday night of the semester, the student is dropped on Tuesday morning. More students will be approved, as space permits, throughout the add/drop period.
