This is the Attendance and Participation policies as they appear in the syllabus:Attendance & ParticipationEven though this class does not meet in a physical classroom, you are still expected to attend & participate in class on a regular basis. You are expected to sign into Blackboard, check your messages, read/view the course material, respond to the journals & the discussion boards, & participate in ongoing class discussions. Blackboard allows me to track the number of times you sign in and respond to a message thread – this is how I will be keeping track of your progress. Part of your grade depends upon your participation in the discussion board engaging your peers & responding to prompts and questions I post for you. Engagement is more than a response to someone that says “me too,” or “I agree.” You need to fully respond. I’m not looking for War and Peace, but a further explanation as to why you do or don’t disagree would be nice and keep everyone from having to read through 20 postings of “couldn’t have said it better myself…” At the end of each week, I will put in your course “attendance” by checking to see if you have logged in, looked at the course materials, completed an assignment, etc. You will be marked either Present or Absent based on your performance in the course that week.Click TRUE to acknowledge that you have read & are aware of these policies, & that you agree to abide by them for the duration of the course.

Use this item to explore the Honorlock environment and make sure your Decision Log opens as expected. While Honorlock is active: Open a new browser tab. Paste the link to your Decision Log that you copied before starting. Confirm that your Decision Log opens and that you are signed in to the Google account that owns it. Scroll from your newest entry to your oldest entry to confirm the whole document loads. Do not type in or edit your log. Confirm that you can return to Canvas afterward. If your Decision Log does not open, or you have any other problem reaching it while Honorlock is active, make note of what you see on screen and email your instructor at aevans57@valenciacollege.edu as soon as possible, before the final exam. Select the response below once you have completed these steps: I have confirmed that I can open and read my Decision Log while Honorlock is active.
