FURTHER NOTES
Attendance:
If you are more than 20 minutes late to class, you are absent. Please come on time. If you are late several times, this will affect your attendance/participation grade.
If you are late or absent because of a train delay, be sure to get a note from the station (遅延証明書) and show it to me so I can excuse you.
If you miss class because you are sick, you must bring me a receipt from the doctor. I will then excuse your absence.
If you have more than 6 unexcused absences you automatically fail this course and have to repeat it again next year.
At KUIS, you will fail if you miss over 1/3 of the classes in a semester. This is different from your “Attendance/Participation” grade! If you miss too much class, I have to fail you. For this class, that means that if you miss more than 10 times, you will fail, even if your grades are good and even if your you have excuses for your absences! Be careful!
Participation:
Coming to class is not enough. You also need to be prepared and you need to participate. Here is a list of behaviours which will cause you to lower your Attendance/Participation mark:
Not doing your homework
Not participating in group or class activities
Sleeping
Speaking Japanese
What to Bring to Class (EVERY time!):
Video projects
All hand outs through the semester in a folder
Project Hard drives
camera and audio equpment

Late Work:
Assignments have specific due dates.
In some cases late work will be accepted but given a lower score. Please ask me when it is acceptable to turn in late assignments.
