Attendance Policy
Absences that occur due to students participating in official
college activities are excused except in those cases where outside bodies, such
as the State Board of Nursing, have requirements for minimum class minutes for
each student. Students who are excused will be given reasonable opportunity to
make up any missed work or receive substitute assignments from the instructor
and should not be penalized for the absence.
Proper procedure should be followed in notifying faculty in advance of
the student’s planned participation in the event. Ultimately it is the student’s responsibility
to notify the instructor in advance of the planned absence.
Unless students are participating in a school activity or are excused by the instructor,
they are expected to attend class. If a
student’s absences exceed one-hundred (100) minutes per credit hour for the
course or, in the case of on-line or other non-traditional courses, the student
is inactive for one-eighth of the total course duration, the instructor has the
right, but is not required, to withdraw a student from the course. Once the student has been dropped for
excessive absences, the registrar’s office will send a letter to the student,
stating that he or she has been dropped.
A student may petition the chief academic officer for reinstatement by
submitting a letter stating valid reasons for the absences within one week of
the registrar’s notification. If the
student is reinstated into the class, the instructor and the registrar will be
notified.
Academic Integrity
NCCC expects
every student to demonstrate ethical behavior with regard to academic
pursuits. Academic integrity in
coursework is a specific requirement.
Definitions, examples, and possible consequences for violations of
Academic Integrity, as well as the appeals process, can be found in the College
Catalog, Student Handbook, and/or Code of Student Conduct and Discipline.
Cell
Phone Policy
Student cell phones and
pagers must be turned off during class times. Faculty may approve an exception
for special circumstances.
Assessment begins
at the beginning of the course when the instructor and the student determine
through conference and observation the skill level of the student. During the beginning of the class each student
will be observed and/or interviewed and initial exercises will be examined to
determine needed competency development throughout the course. Both student and instructor will analyze
student gain at the conclusion of the course through a formal evaluation tool.
