Students who are absent, late or leave early from class the evening that this assignment is due will not be allowed to make up the points for this portion of the assignment. 8. Parent Information Board (90 points) GEO 1,2,3,7,8, 9; CO 5, 6, 8 One job that early childhood educators are faced with is that of parent resource. Often times we become the sole source of information for parents to keep their children healthy and safe. To assist with this process, each student will obtain a standard sized, trifold science board. The board will be used to display information related to 3 different health/safety issues that parents should be aware of. For each issue students must provide an informational display as well as handouts for parents to take from the board. Additionally, all students must include a weekly or monthly menu (or snack calendar), a weekly recipe (must be a take one item), food allergy awareness information, and required Maryland vaccination information/schedules. You do not need to provide enough handouts for the entire class. One handout for each topic (as an example) is sufficient. The board should be neat, attractive and draw in an audience. All decorations for the board must be home-made (not store bought) with exception of lettering and border. Students will be graded on handwriting. It is required that students utilize at least four resources for this project (not including the book) and submit a complete works cited page via Blackboard..

Students will watch several videos that are aligned with the curriculum of this course. After each video, students are required to write a reaction summary to the video. Each reflection should include and introduction, summary of what knowledge was learned, and a conclusion. Please see the formal scoring rubric on Blackboard for specific information regarding this assignment. Each video reflection has a specified due date and will become unavailable to students after the date posted on the tentative course outline. Please check the tentative course outline on page 12 of this syllabus for the specific due date for each video journal. Journals that are posted on Blackboard utilizing a lower case i (in place of the grammatically correct I ), fail to utilize overall proper capitalization at the beginning of sentences and proper nouns and/or fail to utilize basic punctuation at the end of sentences will automatically receive a grade of 0. 10. Examination requirements: (1 @ 150 points = 150 points) Only one exam will be given throughout the semester. The final exam will consist of multiple choice, true/false, labeling, matching, essay and short answer questions. Students are encouraged to begin preparing note cards and other study tools beginning with the first class session. The exam will be comprehensive and cover all aspects of the course, text and notes. 11. Online Quizzes: (140 points) GEO 1,2,3,4,7,8, 9; CO ALL Students will be required to complete an online quiz for the text introduction and each chapter (1 through 14). Each quiz will count 10 points towards the student s final grade. Quizzes will be completed and graded via Blackboard. Students will get unlimited chances to complete each chapter quiz. The scores from each quiz attempt will be added and then averaged to arrive at a final score for each quiz for the student. Students are encouraged to utilize their class notes and textbook to complete each chapter quiz. All quizzes are due by the date specified on the tentative course outline of page 12 of this syllabus.

Child Health, Safety & Nutrition/Spring E 2016 10 12. Class Assignments (6 @ 20 points each = 120 points) GEO 1,2,3,4,7,8, 9; CO ALL Grading: Due to the format of this course attendance is crucial. Research shows an unequivocal relationship between a student s time in class and his/her grade in that class. To achieve maximum learning potential you must commit to attending class on a regular basis. A class assignment will be given at each class meeting. The in class assignments will be designed to facilitate the application, processing and reinforcement of the content taught. The instructor will collect and grade these assignments. Each assignment will count 20 points towards the student final grade. There also will be NO MAKE-UPS for any missed class assignments. If you are absent you will forfeit your points. Letter grades will be computed as follows: Grade Points A 1120-1008 B 1007-896 C 895-784 D 783-672 F 671 or less Emergency Policy: In the event of severe inclement weather or other emergency, information about the closing of the college will be communicated via e2campus and the College s website. Faculty will communicate with students about their courses and course requirements, such as assignments, quiz and exam dates, and class and grading policies, via Blackboard. Students will be responsible for completing all assignments in accordance with class policies.

All graded, written assignments must be submitted in electronic form via our course Blackboard site unless otherwise specified by Mrs. Morris. Due dates are specified on the tentative course outline. Unless a there is a technical issue with Blackboard or the fault of the instructor occurs due dates for assignments WILL NOT BE RESET and DUE DATES WILL NOT BE EXTENDED. Blackboard is available 24 hours a day/seven days per week and due dates are clearly outlined in advance. Resetting and/or date extensions are not necessary. Additionally. No late work will be accepted after the last class session. Only legally documented absences (i.e. emergency room treatment, childbirth, court summons, military service requirement(s), non-elective surgery) will be considered for late acceptance. In these specific cases documentation must be provided, a due date will be agreed upon by the student and the Instructors and there will be no late penalty (if submitted by the new due date). This policy applies to class presentations as well as written assignments. Assignments submitted incorrectly through Blackboard will be considered late and, therefore, receive a grade of a zero. The only exception to this policy will be the first required assignments (Vaccine Article Reviews) Assignments submitted without a file attached or an incorrect file will be considered late and, therefore, receive a grade of a zero. The only exception to this policy will be the first required assignments (Vaccine Article Reviews).

Child Health, Safety & Nutrition/Spring E 2016 12 Classroom Conduct: Wor-Wic Community College respects the rights of faculty to teach and the rights of students to learn. Consequently, the college regards classroom civility as crucial to building and maintaining diverse, dynamic, and productive learning environments. Civil behavior is defined as behavior that is courteous, polite, and respectful. Students in all programs should conduct themselves in a way that is respectful to their classmates, the instructor and the classroom environment. This includes, but is not limited to, avoiding any behavior that distracts their classmates or instructor from the subject matter or discussion during the full class period. It is expected that, as current and future educators, all students will behave professionally. This includes being punctual, appropriately dressed, using correct language, refraining from unnecessary cell phone and/or computer use, and being respectful of the opinions of others. In the event that this behavior is not demonstrated, the overall learning environment may be compromised and, therefore, students will be referred to the Student Faculty Disciplinary Committee. Students are also encouraged to read the Wor-Wic Community College Cheating and Plagiarism Policy (on page 11 of this document). This policy will be enforced by your Professor with no exceptions. Academic Honesty: Academic honesty is expected of all students. Plagiarism and cheating are violations of academic honesty. Any student found violating the academic policy will receive an automatic O for the assignment and the matter will be handed over to the Student Disciplinary Committee. Documented evidence of the plagiarism or cheating will be kept in the Human Services Department Office. Plagiarism: In both oral and written communication, the following guidelines for avoiding plagiarism must be followed: 1. Any words quoted directly from a source must be in quotation marks and cited. 2. Any paraphrasing or rephrasing of the words and/or ideas of a source must be cited. 3. Any ideas or examples derived from a source that are not in the public domain or of general knowledge must be cited. 4. All papers and presentations must be the student s own work. Any student found violating any of the above guidelines for avoiding plagiarism will receive an automatic 0" for the assignment and then the matter will be turned to the Student Disciplinary Committee. Documented evidence of the plagiarism will be kept in the General Education office.

Child Health, Safety & Nutrition/Spring E 2016 13 There are ambiguities in concepts of plagiarism. Each instructor will be available for consultation regarding any confusion a student may have. Cheating: Cheating is the act of obtaining information or data improperly, by dishonest or deceitful means.
