3 GRADING SYSTEM HGTC has a standardized grading scale for academic courses. The grading scale is: A: B: C: D: F: Below 60 A different grading scale may exist in some academic programs. Refer to the College Catalog for specific information. Grade reports showing scholastic marks attained by the student are available at the end of each semester. The following grades are used: A EXCELLENT: used in GPA calculations; carries a value of 4 quality points and earns credit hours. B ABOVE AVERAGE: used in GPA calculations; carries a value of 3 quality points and earns credit hours. C AVERAGE: used in GPA calculations; carries a value of 2 quality points and earns credit hours. D BELOW AVERAGE: used in GPA calculations; carries a value of 1 quality point and earns credit hours. F FAILURE: used in GPA calculations; carries a value of 0 quality points and earns 0 credit hours. (Hours attempted are used in GPA calculations.) I INCOMPLETE: does not affect GPA calculations; defaults to F automatically after one term if the incomplete work has not been completed and generates 0 quality points and 0 credit hours. WF WITHDREW FAILING: used in GPA calculations; carries a value of 0 quality points and earns 0 credit hours. (Hours attempted are used in GPA calculations.) W WITHDRAW: not used in GPA calculations; carries a value of 0 quality points and earns 0 credit hours. May be utilized when extenuating circumstances warrant. S SATISFACTORY: not used in GPA calculations; carries a value of 0 quality points, but does cause credit hours and CEUs to be earned. U UNSATISFACTORY: not used in GPA calculations; carries a value of 0 quality points, earns 0 credit hours. SC SATISFACTORY COMPLETION: not used in GPA calculations; earns credit hours, generates no grade points. NC NO CREDIT: not used in GPA calculations; earns no credit hours; generates no grade points.

4 CF CARRY FORWARD: not used in GPA calculations; earns no credit hours; generates no grade points. TR TRANSFER: not used in GPA calculations; earns credit hours; generates no grade points. A TR is given for allowable equivalent credits earned at other accredited colleges, universities or technical colleges. All TR grades must be supported by an official transcript of record from an accredited postsecondary institution. E EXEMPT: not used in GPA calculations; earns credit hours; generates no grade points. An E is awarded for HGTC courses which students have been permitted to exempt as a result of testing, articulation, equivalent work experience or other educational experience. AU AUDIT: not used in GPA calculations; carries a value of 0 quality points and earns 0 credit hours. Developmental Studies Grading Scale A* EXCELLENT: not used in GPA calculations; earns credit hours; generates no grade points. B* ABOVE AVERAGE: not used in GPA calculations; earns credit hours; generates no grade points. C* AVERAGE: not used in GPA calculations; earns credit hours; generates no grade points. F* FAILURE: not used in GPA calculations; earns no credit hours; generates no credit hours. Incomplete- A grade of Incomplete ( I ) is given when the student does not complete his/her work or take the final exam due to illness or for other reasons over which the student has no control. This grade is given only with the approval of the professor involved. An incomplete must be removed by the end of the following term. Otherwise, grade becomes an automatic Failure ( F ).

5 YOUR COMMITMENT Success in this course requires a serious commitment on your part. You must be committed to attending each and every class. You must be committed to coming to class with your homework, reading material covered in class, and be prepared and to be attentive in class. You must be committed to seeking help with your work if you find yourself having difficulty. The opportunity for success is available to you, and you must be committed to taking advantage of this opportunity. Departmental Rules In compliance with college policy, there is to be absolutely no eating or drinking in the computer labs on the Conway, Georgetown, or Grand Strand Campuses. Professors will not accept Extra Credit work nor should students ask a professor to make Extra Credit assignments. Students should not expect that grades for any exam, quiz, assignment, or final exam to be curved. Professors in the Department do not curve grades. Your professor will not accept any assignment turned in past the due date and time. No late assignments will be accepted. In the majority of courses in the Department, students are expected to complete lab assignments outside of class unless directed by the professor. Class time is reserved for instructional purposes only. Students are prohibited from copying software from the college computers. Anyone found copying copyrighted software will be disciplined through the Vice President for Student Affairs. Do not load personal software of any type on the computers in the labs including games or entertainment software. Systems are purged frequently of data files or unauthorized software. Users of the computers and network services, including Internet access, provided by the college are subject to monitoring. If a student deliberately disrupts monitoring, such as powering off a computer, the student will be asked to leave and will be charged with an absence. Users shall abide by the procedures and policies set forth by the College regulating information system use. Acceptable use is always ethical, reflects honesty, and shows restraint in the consumption of shared resources. If you are not sure whether or not what you are doing is allowed, ask your professor prior to doing it. Cell phones, beepers, pagers, and other electronic devices will be turned off prior to coming into class. If any device goes off during class, the student will be asked to leave and will be charged with an absence. No excuses. If there are any questions, ask. Turn off your computer when you leave the classroom. Your professor will show you the correct procedure.

6 Student Conduct To ensure a positive learning environment for all students, the Department follows the Code of Conduct as outlined in the College Catalog. In accordance with the Code, the Department expects students to: Show respect for others. (Give complete attention and listen while others are talking, avoid arguing with instructors and classmates, avoid confrontation with others during classroom discussions, respect the opinions of others, keep conversations and questions focused on relevant course issues, avoid threatening behavior toward students and professors, use appropriate language, turn off electronic devices such as cell phones and pagers while in class.) Engage in classroom activities. (Avoid sleeping, actively participate, avoid doing personal work or other class assignments, exhibit a positive attitude and interest in the class, use personal computers for note taking only.) Exhibit respect for College property. (Use equipment with care, avoid eating and drinking in classroom where prohibited, keep desk area neat and clean, be in classrooms at the start of class, and stay until class is over.) Take ownership and responsibility for one s learning. (Complete assignments, be prepared to participate in learning, put forth effort to learn, ask questions, take responsibility for one s own actions, and maintain scholastic honesty.) Show respect for authority. (Exhibit cooperation with the professor, avoid comments that show disrespect for the professor and their knowledge, select appropriate times to inquire about academic performance which may be outside the classroom, complete assignments on time and as directed by professor, address professors as Professor, Mr., or Mrs. not by his/her first or last name.) Consequences for not following these guidelines are listed in the Code of Conduct in the College Catalog. Attendance A student at Horry-Georgetown Technical College is responsible for all course work and all assignments made in each class. Therefore, he/she is expected to attend regularly and promptly each class meeting in which he/she is enrolled. Students should limit absences to those that are unavoidable. An absence is defined as nonattendance for any reason, including illness, emergency, or official leave. Due to the nature of the classes taught and the difficulty in making up missed assignments, the Department strongly encourages all students to attend every class. The Department maintains a general attendance policy requiring students to be present for a minimum of 90% of classes in order to receive credit. For classes meeting three (3) days per week, five (5) absences are allowed. For a class meeting twice a week, three (3) absences are

7 allowed. Absences are counted from the first day of class. Students are responsible for all work missed. Students exceeding the absence limit will be withdrawn from the course with a grade of "W" or "WF," depending on the grade average at the time of withdrawal. Tardy Policy Students are expected to be on time for each class. A student not present when roll is taken will be marked absent. See your professor after class. (Do not assume that the absence will be changed to tardy.) A second tardy will be charged as an absence. Materials are often distributed at the beginning of class. The professor will not stop class to accommodate a late student. Students leaving class early without specific permission will be marked absent. Comments During class students should not be entering anything into the computer unless the professor has requested that they do so. Students will not use the Internet or play games, and no outside work will be done during class unless permission has been given. Professors will normally act as a facilitator to help each student learn course concepts. This means that quite often a question by the student will be met with a question by the professor in order to help the student reach his/her own answer. Students should always do his/her own work. Copying any type of assignments will not be tolerated, and both the copier and the supplier will both receive grades of zero. Course Withdrawal Students missing the first 2 class meetings will be administratively dropped unless prior arrangements are made with the course professor. March 18 is the last day to withdraw and unconditionally receive a grade of W. Withdrawal after this date will result in a grade based upon the quality of work produced at the date of withdrawal. Makeup Policy Students are responsible for the timely makeup of all assignments missed while absent. Only one test per semester may be made up if the reason for doing so is valid and if the following procedures are followed: 1. The professor or office is called before the test period. 2. A suitable time has been arranged with the professor to make up the test. (The makeup test will probably be a different test from that taken on the originally assigned date). A makeup test will be allowed only for justifiable reasons and will be done only if the professor deems the reason to be acceptable. Students are allowed to make up one test per semester,

8 without the approval of the department head. Instructor Late Policy If an instructor has not arrived in the classroom within 10 to 15 minutes of the scheduled class start time, and prior arrangements have not been announced, the students should contact another instructor in the Department to determine what the cause might be. Class is NOT dismissed until the students are officially notified by someone in the Department. COURSE OUTLINE - Note that the schedule is tentative and subject to change. NOTE: There will be an on-line exam the class after each Chapter has been completed. In some cases you may be required to take the Chapter exams at the testing center.
