College Policy Statements

This class is governed by the policies and procedures stated in the current Chattanooga State Student Handbook. College Policies, available at https://library.chattanoogastate.edu/ mastersyllabi/collegepolicystatements

Technology Requirements

Students are required to use some technology to succeed in this course. You should be able to:

• Draft, save, and submit written work using Microsoft Office (or a comparable program). All students can download Office 365 and authenticate it with your student @my.chattanoogastate.edu email account free of charge while enrolled at ChattState.

• Conduct internet searches, using a search engine (like Google) and library databases. 

• Send and receive emails, including attaching files.

• Use eLearn's discussion board and browsing capabilities.

Regarding eLearn

You will be accessing and submitting assignments, reading and studying course material, and completing assessments via eLearn. Assignments MUST be submitted as a .doc, .docx, or .pdf format. Documents submitted in .wps or .pages formats cannot be read. I also can't consistently access Google Doc URLs.

Late Work  

If there is a reason you cannot complete your work by the deadline, please let me know as soon as you're able. You do not need to provide doctor’s notes, photos from the ER, or paperwork from a court of law; I will believe you. Just keep me posted when something happens to keep you from submitting work in a timely fashion.

 Having said that, ALL work must be submitted by the last day of class – Friday, April 28 – in order to ensure I have time to review it before my grading deadline. If extreme/extenuating circumstances make that final deadline impossible, you should let me know as soon as possible so we can discuss next steps. (That doesn't mean you're going to fail. It means we need a new plan. I will work with you.)
