Attendance: Required. You are responsible for the material covered and any assignments that are due for the class period you miss.
Withdrawal policy: Make sure that you understand the consequences of withdrawing. If you wish to withdraw and stop attending, it is your responsibility to fill out the necessary paperwork. Your instructor has the right to withdraw you for lack of attendance, lack of progress toward the course objectives, failure to do required work in the course, or other reasons, but he/she is not required to do so.
Reinstatement Policy: Students who withdrew or were withdrawn generally will not be reinstated unless they have completed all course work, projects, and tests necessary to place them at the same level of course completion as the rest of the class.
*Additional information about ACC's mathematics curriculum and faculty is available on the Internet at <http://www2.austin.cc.tx.us/math/>
MATD 0390, Information for Students, page 2 of 2
TASP Warning: If you are relying on this course to meet a requirement that you be in mandatory remediation in mathematics this semester*, then:
i) if you are not "continually in attendance" in this course, you should be withdrawn from the course by your instructor,
ii) if you withdraw yourself from this course or are withdrawn by your instructor, you will be automatically withdrawn from all of your other college courses if this is the only TASP-mandated course you are taking.
* If you are unsure whether or not this warning applies to you, see an ACC advisor immediately.
Incomplete grades (I) are given only in very rare circumstances. Generally, to qualify for a grade of "I", a student must have completed 13 weeks of classes, including all exams, homework, and assignments, have a passing grade, and have a personal tragedy occur within the final three weeks which prevents course completion.
Suggested testing scheme
Test 1: Chs. 1-2.5
Test 2: Chs. 2.6-5.6
Test 3: Chs. 5.7-6
Test 4: Chs. 7-8.3
Test 5: Chs. 1-10.1 (Departmental Final Exam)
Your instructor will provide you with an additional handout that details testing, homework, and grading procedures. Those will include a comprehensive departmental final exam. Your class may have some tests in the Testing Center. <http://www2.austin.cc.tx.us/testctr/>
