Weekly Assignments

Weekly assignments:

• Assignments will be assigned weekly and consist of items from ATI, Sherpath, HESI case studies, Clinical Skills, etc., and are subject to change at the instructor’s discretion. Applicable grades to be averaged on a week to week basis are at the instructor’s discretion.

• Instructional weeks begin on Monday. All quizzes and assignments will be due by Sunday at 1159PM prior to the new week of instruction, unless otherwise indicated.

• Weekly clinical paperwork will be due 48 hours after the clinical day is completed. Any paperwork submitted after the due date will receive a zero (0).

• Any work turned in after the designated time/date is late. Any late paperwork or assignments will result in a zero (0) in the gradebook.

NOTE:

• All written work is expected to be turned in ON TIME. Any work turned in after the designated time/date is late. Any late paperwork or assignments will result in a zero (0) in the gradebook.

• Students' names must be included on each assignment submitted.

• All coursework is a part of the evaluation process for weekly, mid-term, and final evaluations.

• Review plagiarism and copyright guidelines prior to writing any assigned paper.

• While at this time there are no separate math quizzes (except in the Pharmacology course), Math and Pharmacology may be integrated into your weekly assignments, as well as your unit exams.

• The faculty will limit the amount of math questions to 10% or less of the total number of questions per exam.

• Communication is KEY when in an online program. If you are having issues/problems with connectivity, laptops, electronics, etc., DO NOT wait until minutes before an assignment is due to contact your instructor. Upload times can be different for everyone based on internet speed.

• Extensions will NOT be given due to poor planning or procrastination. Make it a habit to submit assignments early.

• If you are having problems, you can contact the TSTC Help Desk.
