GUIDELINES FOR FAMILIES Principles for Developing Families of Courses When leveling courses, Roman Numerals (I, II, III) are best for articulation. All courses do not have to be in families. Be cautious of creating families which are too broad. Ensure there are programmatic justifications for leveling courses. Do not proliferate families unnecessarily.
GRADING ON ATTENDANCE Title 5 § 55002(a)(2)(A) – “Grades are intended to reflect the student’s performance in terms of course objectives and the students subject matter proficiency as opposed to a disciplinary option.” Title 5 §58004 – “The failure to attend described in section (no shows or excessive unexcused absences) MUST be addressed by dropping the student from the class; a district cannot continue the student in the class and lower the grade for nonattendance.” San Diego City College Faculty Resource How do you handle attendance in your syllabus?
