3 Page 3 of 6 Grading and Evaluation Numerical scores : = A = B = C = D 59.9 or lower = F Assessment Item Percentage of Grade Note Class Participation and Attendance 1 Quizzes 10% Practice Assignments 10% 2 Lab Work / Notebook Evaluations 50% 2 Course Notebook 10% AutoCAD / Civil 3D Project 20% 3 Notes 1 100% Attendance will be taken at the beginning of class, via a sign in sheet. It is your responsibility to ensure that you sign the sheet each class. If you must miss a class, prior notification to the instructor must be made to excuse the absence. Absences will only be excused for a valid reason received prior to the class which will be missed. Attendance is mandatory at both lecture and lab sessions. Students will be allowed (2) unexcused absences without penalty. Additional absences will result in a reduction of 3.33% per absence from the final course average. Finally, the lessons taught during this course are progressive (i.e. if you miss classes 5 and 6, you will have a very challenging time with class 7). For that reason, it is strongly suggested that you make every effort to be in class. If you miss class without a valid excuse, the instructor is not required to provide remedial instruction. 2 3 The material you will learn in this course will serve as a valuable reference down the road. As such, this percentage of your final grade will be based upon your organization of class materials. Throughout the semester, you will be asked to develop 'Notebook Sheets' for each of the learning modules of this course. These sheets will be periodically evaluated throughout the semester. At the end of the semester, you will be expected to hand in a 3- ring binder (D-type) which will contain these 'Notebook Sheets' as well as all handouts, notes, presentations, homework and laboratory submittals. Tabs shall be used to delineate each section. At the instructor's discretion, the Final Project may be worth 15% of the overall course grade, with the remaining 5% reallocated for participation in professional organizations and office hours. Course Policies: Academic Integrity

4 Page 4 of 6 In addition to NAU s Academic Integrity Policy (see below), students should also be familiar with the CECMEE Departmental Academic Integrity Policy (see: Forms/) Faculty members may ask students to affirm in writing that they have neither given nor received Homework No late homework will be accepted with the exception for extreme circumstances where it will be up to the instructors discretion. Homework that is not readily legible will be returned without being graded, and cannot be re-submitted. Missing a class is not an excuse for turning in late work. If you are absent from a class and do not submit your work then it will be counted as late. Make-up Assignments, Tests, and Retesting There MAY be options for extra-credit work; any options, however, will be provided to the entire class; there will be NO individual options. Grade Appeals Any questions regarding grading of submittals must be requested within 5 working days of receipt of the graded submittal. Attendance and Makeups All lectures and labs are mandatory to attend. There are NO make-up assignments or tests without prior consent of the instructor. Exceptions to the attendace and makeup work policies may be made only under certain extenuating circumstances such as a an institutional excuse, serious illness or family emrgencies, and will require valid verification fom Northern Arizona University. In order to be valid, an excuse must be certifed by the university. Furthermore, a written medical note that simply states that you visited a clinic or were seen by a doctor or nurse is not valid and will not be accepted. If you have an institutional excuse, it must be presented to the instructor in person or attached to an at least 5 working days prior to the anticipated absence. Enginering Professionalism: Professional Ethics and Code of Conduct Exceptionally high standards of honor and integrity are fundamental and essential to the study and practice of engineering and construction management. Academic preparation for the professions must be conducted in an atmosphere which fosters these values. In addition to compliance with all NAU policies that apply to all students at NAU, engineering and construction management students are expected to conduct themselves professionally. Violation of the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) Code of Ethics, found at code.asp, or the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Code of Ethics, found at may lead to dismissal from the College s academic programs. Violations of any of these codes will be handled as detailed in the references listed above, and will be documented in the student s advisement file. University Policies: Safe Environment

5 Page 5 of 6 NAU s Safe Working and Learning Environment Policy prohibits sexual harassment and assault, and discrimination and harassment on the basis of sex, race, color, age, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or veteran status by anyone at this university. Retaliation of any kind as a result of making a complaint under the policy or participating in an investigation is also prohibited. The Director of the Office of Affirmative Action & Equal Opportunity (AA/EO) serves as the university s compliance officer for affirmative action, civil rights, and Title IX, and is the ADA/504 Coordinator. AA/EO also assists with religious accommodations. You may obtain a copy of this policy from the college dean s office or from the NAU s Affirmative Action website nau.edu/diversity/. If you have questions or concerns about this policy, it is important that you contact the departmental chair, dean s office, the Office of Student Life ( ), or NAU s Office of Affirmative Action (928) (voice), (928) (fax), (928) (TTD) or aaeo@nau.edu. Students with Disabilities If you have a documented disability, you can arrange for accommodations by contacting Disability Resources (DR) at (voice) or (TTY), dr@nau.edu ( ) or (fax). Students needing academic accommodations are required to register with DR and provide required disability related documentation. Although you may request an accommodation at any time, in order for DR to best meet your individual needs, you are urged to register and submit necessary documentation ( 8 weeks prior to the time you wish to receive accommodations. DR is strongly committed to the needs of student with disabilities and the promotion of Universal Design. Concerns or questions related to the accessibility of programs and facilities at NAU may be brought to the attention of DR or the Office of Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity ( ). Academic Contact Hours Based on the Arizona Board of Regents Academic Contact Hour Policy (ABOR Handbook, 2-224), for every unit of credit, a student should expect, on average, to do a minimum of three hours of work per week, including but not limited to class time, preparation, homework, studying. Academic Integrity Integrity is expected of every member of the NAU community in all academic undertakings. Integrity entails a firm adherence to a set of values, and the values most essential to an academic community are grounded in honesty with respect to all intellectual efforts of oneself and others. Academic integrity is expected not only in formal coursework situations, but in all University relationships and interactions connected to the educational process, including the use of University resources. An NAU student s submission of work is an implicit declaration that the work is the student s own. All outside assistance should be acknowledged, and the student s academic contribution truthfully reported at all times. In addition, NAU students have a right to expect academic integrity from each of their peers. Individual students and faculty members are responsible for identifying potential violations of the university s academic integrity policy. Instances of potential violations are adjudicated using the process found in the university Academic Integrity Policy. Research Integrity The Responsible Conduct of Research policy is intended to ensure that NAU personnel including NAU students engaged in research are adequately trained in the basic principles of ethics in research. Additionally, this policy assists NAU in meeting the RCR training and compliance requirements of the National Science Foundation (NSF)-The America COMPETES Act (Creating Opportunities to Meaningfully Promote Excellence in Technology, Education and Science); 42 U.S.C , Section 7009, and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) policy on the instruction of the RCR (NOT-OD ; Update on the Requirement for Instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research ).

6 Page 6 of 6 University education aims to expand student understanding and awareness. Thus, it necessarily involves engagement with a wide range of information, ideas, and creative representations. In the course of college studies, students can expect to encounter and critically appraise materials that may differ from and perhaps challenge familiar understandings, ideas, and beliefs. Students are encouraged to discuss these matters with faculty. Classroom Disruption Policy Membership in the academic community places a special obligation on all participants to preserve an atmosphere conducive to a safe and positive learning environment. Part of that obligation implies the responsibility of each member of the NAU community to maintain an environment in which the behavior of any individual is not disruptive. Instructors have the authority and the responsibility to manage their classes in accordance with University regulations. Instructors have the right and obligation to confront disruptive behavior thereby promoting and enforcing standards of behavior necessary for maintaining an atmosphere conducive to teaching and learning. Instructors are responsible for establishing, communicating, and enforcing reasonable expectations and rules of classroom behavior. These expectations are to be communicated to students in the syllabus and in class discussions and activities at the outset of the course. Each student is responsible for behaving in a manner that supports a positive learning environment and that does not interrupt nor disrupt the delivery of education by instructors or receipt of education by students, within or outside a class. The complete classroom disruption policy is in Appendices of NAU s Student Handbook. Emergency Textbook Loan Program Eligible students can apply for assistance with acquisition of textbooks for the semester.
