21
Daily Class Outline Previous class review (20 minutes) submit homework, ask questions about the previous class, possibly do a quiz Session 1 (70 minutes) Presentation, discussion, in-class assignment or hands-on lab assignment Intermission (10-15 minutes) Session 2 (80 minutes): Presentation, discussion, in-class assignment or hands-on lab assignment with a small break. Daily class wrap-up (10 minutes)
22
Things to do and things not to do Things to DO Be on time Be ready to learn Always bring your materials Paper and pen/pencil ready at start of class Turn in assignments on time Eliminate distractions during class No food or drink in class (except water) Laptops closed unless directed otherwise Cell phones turned off; bluetooth sets stowed No email, texting, games, unrelated surfing iPods and equivalent and their headphones stowed No taking pictures, sharing pictures etc Things NOT to do Be uninterested and absent minded Not paying attention to the class And talking to your friend about the new wii game Not being silent the whole class and asking no questions Not challenging the instructor Thinking that your idea or question is silly There are no silly questions Being withheld and not getting to know your colleagues Not contribute your individuality to the class The RA will be very upset if you break these rules, and will tell your parents
23
Daily duties Daily review Turn in your homework first thing Late homework will be thrown to trash Ask questions about previous class before quiz No talking during the quiz Use your notes during the quiz Participate in the class Listen to the instructor and your colleagues Ask many questions, challenge the instructor There are no silly questions Voice your opinion, but talk one at a time (raise your hand) Contribute your presence and individuality to the class Maintain your journal Fill in the daily questionnaires Take notes There is no textbook You can look into your notes while taking quizzes

The university and unit academic integrity policies are available from the Office of the Provost and Academic Affairs and from the deans of the individual academic units. Grading Policy: The course grade is determined by homework assignments and lab reports. Homework will reinforce oral lectures during class and labs will be hands on using material learned in class. Students will be expected to follow all academic integrity policies of ASU. Letter grades will be assigned to all work turned in by the student according to: Group projects should be completed within your group while individual projects should be completed by yourself. No copying of other peoples work!!! % of score ≥97≥93≥90≥86≥83≥80≥75≥70≥60<60 Letter grade A+AA-B+BB-C+CDF
