When taking quizzes, I will not receive help from anyone or perform any online searches for solutions.  I will have only the quiz window open on my computer and I will not discuss the contents of the quiz with other students until after the due date.  The quizzes are meant to help me discover what material I know well and what material I still need help with.  Using outside resources will prevent me from truly assessing my understanding before each exam.

I will plan to take the exam either within the testing window as indicated on the syllabus, or earlier than the testing window if I know ahead of time that I cannot test on those dates.  I do not need permission to take the test early, but I do need permission from my instructor to take the test late. If I am testing late due to unforseen circumstances, my instructor will tell me when the test is due, and I am aware that this deadline will be as close to the original due date of the test as possible, but absolutely no more than 1 week late.

I plan on devoting at least 6-9 hours each week (during a regular 16 week semester) or 12-18 hours each week (during an 8 week semester) on this course.  I realize that even though this course is online, the amount of time it will require remains the same as if it were being held in person.

When taking exams, I will supply my own non-graphing, non-programmable calculator.  I will use the normal table and t-tables provided in Canvas (pertains to Exams 2, 3, and and the final) instead of using a graphing calculator or an internet calculator.  I know that I may also use the formula sheet provided in Canvas, but I may not add equations, words, symbols, etc. to this sheet. I will not have a cell phone, tablet, iPod, smart watch, etc. near me while testing.  I will not attempt to access any webpages for help, nor contact any individual who may be able to help me. I will not allow anyone else to take the test for me, and I will not communicate about test questions with other students until after the due date has passed. I will have academic integrity.

Upon submission of each exam, I am aware that my grade may change.  My instructor will review my work and make initial adjustments.  Once the exam becomes reviewable to me, I will go over my exam and email my instructor if I believe I deserved additional partial credit or full credit on a problem that was counted as incorrect.  My instructor will review the question(s) from my email and how the computer graded my work.  It is ultimately up to the instructor if additional credit is awarded.
