Other material in the text will not be covered. Evaluation: Students can earn a total of 100 points (corresponding to 100%) in this class through successful completion of the activities below. These activities are directly linked to the course learning objectives outlined above. Although class activities are worth varying numbers of points, the total point value for each activity will be converted to a scale to reflect 100 points with the weighting below. 1. Class Participation (5% of grade) 2. Quizzes/Assignments (15% of grade) 3. Test 1 (20% of grade) 4. Test 2 (20% of grade) 5. Final Exam (20% of grade) 6. Character Analysis Group Project/Paper (20% of grade) A description of each evaluation component follows on the next page. Please note that Chapter readings and assignments, discussion board postings, and exams have an 11:59 p.m. due date on Fridays. 1) Class participation. 5 points. Class participation is earned by participating in the class discussions for this course. Each student is expected to respond to instructor discussion questions/activities and engage in peer discussion around the topic each week throughout the semester. To earn maximum points (100%), you will need to submit at least ten (10) quality postings across ten (10) different weeks out of a total of twelve (12) opportunities. Posting 6-9 times will result in a discussion grade of Page 4 of 15

three (3). Posting less than this will result in a grade of zero (0) for this activity. Quality discussion points are those that are well-written and that allow you and your peers to apply knowledge that you re gaining from your chapters to various issues as well as stimulate critical analysis of issues related to the chapters. They do not merely reflect a personal opinion or position about a topic, nor do they simply reflect agreement with another post. Profane, pejorative, or offense language will not be tolerated on discussion boards. Any student who chooses to engage in such behavior will receive one warning. A repeat offense will result in the student being blocked from posting to discussion boards and the student will be unable to receive further discussion points. The discussion boards will pertain to each chapter and should not be used to discuss unrelated topics. The general discussion board in D2L can be used for such purposes. Unrelated topics/questions will be removed. Discussion assignments are due weekly, however, there is a grace period where the board will remain open (i.e. closes the Saturday following the exam deadline at 11:59 p.m.). Please note that technical difficulties the last day of the grace period will not be sufficient excuse for me to reopen discussions; therefore, do not wait until the last minute to post to the boards. Grading: 1 point per posting for a maximum of 14 points which will be converted to the 5 point scale at the end of the semester. 2) Quizzes/Assignments. 15 points. Each week you will have either a summative quiz to complete or an assignment. Students have two opportunities to take quizzes and the higher of the two scores will stand as the grade. Students will have one opportunity to complete assignments. Quizzes and assignments will vary in the number of items but will be worth a total of 15 points per quiz/assignment. Quizzes are timed (15 minutes). Quizzes and assignments are due the week they are assigned, but there is a grace period when they will continue to be accepted (i.e. closes the Saturday following the exam deadline at 11:59 p.m.) Quizzes and assignments are assigned in blocks. The set of quizzes that correspond with the upcoming exam will open on the Monday following the previous exam. Following the grace period, once quizzes/assignments are closed they will not be reopened. Please note that technical difficulties the last day of the grace period will not be sufficient excuse for me to reopen quizzes/assignments; therefore, do not wait until the last minute to take your quizzes or complete assignments. The average points from the 10 highest quiz/assignment scores will comprise the quizzes/assignments grade. All quizzes/assignments (EXCEPT the syllabus quiz which is graded and should be taken in D2L) must be completed in the Launchpad. The Summative Quizzes (not Pre-Lecture) must be completed. 3-5) Semester exams and Final Exam. 20 points. Two semester exams and a Final Exam will be given for this course. Each exam for this course is worth 20 points (40 items worth 1/2 point each). All Exams are administered through D2L under the Quizzes Tab. Exam questions are worded using a multiple choice format and require critical analysis of cases in addition to demonstrating general knowledge about a topic area. Students have 75 minutes to complete each exam. Exams open on Monday at 9 a.m. and close on Friday at 11:59 p.m. There is a 24-hour grace period (extending the exam period until Saturday at 11:59 p.m.). The final exam for this course will open on the last day of classes and remain open until 11:59 PM on May 8 th. Again, the 24-hour grace period will apply Page 5 of 15

extending the completion time to May 9 th until 11:59 pm), after which no late exams will be accepted. Students must download Respondus Lockdown Browser (a link will be provided if you do not have it) to take the exams. Respondus prevents you from using any other software applications while taking the exam. Please note: students should NOT wait until the last minute to take exams. Technical difficulties the day the grace period expires will not be a sufficient excuse for the exam to be reopened after closing. Also note that there are no exam study guides for this class. However, important information is highlighted in the types of discussion questions posted, assignments given, and instructor notes throughout the E-book. In general, exams provide cases that include symptoms, theoretical frameworks, and interventions. Students must apply their knowledge of these various disorders and multicultural information emphasized in the text related to these disorders to answer questions following the cases. A working knowledge of the diagnosis, theoretical models and their associated interventions, and the multicultural research covered in the text will lead to success on exams. Detailed information about prevalence statistics, etc. is not typically asked on the exam and rote memorization does not typically lead to success on exams. However, there will be some questions that are related to the topic area assessed that do not necessarily pertain to the specific case described, so it is important to have a good understanding of basic as well as applied knowledge. 6) Character Analysis. 20 points. A group project is a component of this course. The class is required to work as part of a group to receive credit. Individually turning in the assignment will result in it being returned with a grade of zero. There will be seven groups (possibly eight if required) formed for the class. The group must meet certain benchmarks in the completion of the project. These benchmarks and points received (out of the total project points) for turning them in ON TIME include: Formation of the group membership and selection of a group chairperson who is to communicate the groups #1 and #2 diagnostic category preference (i.e. anxiety disorders, mood disorders, dissociative disorders, psychotic disorders, substance use disorders, gender dysphoria, or aging disorders) to the instructor. Groups must have a MINIMUM of four (4) students and a MAXIMUM of five (5) students. Those who do not form a group and submit information by the deadline will be required to solicit a group to be a part of after the category assignments are made. You must be in a group by March 6 (midpoint) to avoid receiving a zero (0). -1 point Selection of a movie (from the approved list-attached at end of syllabus) AFTER the instructor assigns the group to their category (assignment will occur on a first come, first served basis so the sooner a group is formed and the group membership is sent to the instructor the greater the likelihood of getting your preferred category). -1 point Outline of presentation in outline form which should include how the presentation will be organized, the points to be covered, the various group assignments, and who will be responsible for them; Outline of paper in MS word in outline form. -1 points Rough draft of paper.-1 points Final PowerPoint and paper. -16 points Page 6 of 15

The paper will be graded on content, organization and flow, grammar, mechanics, and adherence to APA style. Students must cite a minimum of three sources (in addition to your Comer text). At least TWO (2) of those sources must be peer-reviewed journal articles (i.e. they cannot be websites such as web md or mayo clinic). Students should use Galileo or Scholar. Google to find scholarly sources. The paper should use in-text citations (APA style) and have a title, abstract, and bibliography. The paper should not exceed 5-7 pages (this does not include the title, abstract and bibliography). The well-written paper should describe/explain concepts and not just document them. The grading rubric is attached at the end of the syllabus. A group workspace (Discussion Board) will be provided in D2L and the group assignments will be in the Dropbox. Communication among group members should occur on this discussion board or in the virtual chat room if you elect to have real time meetings. This is the only way I have of tracking group member s participation in the process. Additionally, each group member must submit an evaluation of the other group members and themselves regarding their participation in the process. This information will be taken into account when competing the final grade. The percent score from the average of the group evaluations will be the percentage of the final grade received (for those receiving less than 80% on their group evaluations). For example, if the group receives a grade of 18/20 (90%) for the group assignment, but the group member s average evaluation is 17/20 (85%), then that particular group member s grade for the assignment will not be 90% but will be.90*.85=.77%. This is a substantial reduction; therefore, it is important that you actively participate in your groups. The evaluation is attached at the end of the syllabus. The PowerPoint Presentations will be shared with the class and covered on the final exam. Final Grade: The final course grade can be calculated by summing the points from each component of the course. A 90 100% B 80 89% C 70 79% D 60 69% F below 60% Mid-term Progress Report: The mid-term grade in this course, which will be issued February 27, reflects approximately 25% of the entire course grade. The midterm grade will be based on Exam 1 and class participation on the discussion board participation. It will be calculated out of a total of 40 points (discussion board participation for at least 6 out of the 8 weeks (5 points)(4 out of 8 postings will earn 3 points, less than this earns zero (0)); average quiz Page 7 of 15

score (out of 15 points); and Exam 1 (out of 20 points). Based on this grade, students may choose to withdraw from the course and receive a grade of W. Students pursuing this option must fill out an official withdrawal form, available in the Office of the Registrar, or withdraw on-line using the Swan by mid-term. Instructions for withdrawing are provided at this link. The last day to withdraw without academic accountability is Friday, March 6, 2015. Course Policies: General Policy Students must abide by policies in the Clayton State University Student Handbook, and the Basic Undergraduate Student Responsibilities. University Attendance Policy Students are expected to attend and participate in every class meeting. Instructors establish specific policies relating to absences in their courses and communicate these policies to the students through the course syllabi. Individual instructors, based upon the nature of the course, determine what effect excused and unexcused absences have in determining grades and upon students ability to remain enrolled in their courses. The university reserves the right to determine that excessive absences, whether justified or not, are sufficient cause for institutional withdrawals or failing grades. Course Attendance Policy Attendance is required to do well in this course. More than three absences for any reason will result in a loss of 5 points from your class participation grade. Being late to class by more than 10 minutes will count as half an absence. Missed Work Without a valid excuse, a grade of zero points will be assigned for any missed work. If a valid excuse is provided within three days of the missed assignment/exam with appropriate documentation, a make-up exam or extension for completion can be granted. These conditions only apply to extreme circumstances that are documented emergencies. Routine medical appointments do not constitute an emergency and should be rescheduled to avoid conflicts with exams. No exceptions will be made to this policy. Students missing the final assessment should contact the instructor concerning the applicability of an Incomplete grade. Students must submit a written request using the appropriate institutional form and follow the university policy and procedures required if they cannot take the final at the designated time. Please note that it is the student s responsibility to contact the instructor when exams or other important work is missed. Academic Dishonesty Any type of activity that is considered dishonest by reasonable standards may constitute academic misconduct. The most common forms of academic misconduct are cheating and plagiarism. All instances of academic dishonesty will be reported to the Office of Community Standards. Judicial procedures are described in the Procedures for Adjudicating Alleged Academic Conduct Infractions. Plagiarism Detection Software. Students agree that by taking this course all required papers may be subject to submission for textual similarity review to Turnitin.com for the detection of plagiarism. All submitted Page 8 of 15

papers will be included as source documents in the Turnitin.com reference database solely for the purpose of detecting plagiarism of such papers. You should submit your papers in such a way that no identifying information about you is included. Disruption of the Learning Environment Behavior which disrupts the teaching learning process in the online environment will not be tolerated. While a variety of behaviors can be disruptive, more serious examples include belligerent, abusive, profane, and/or threatening behavior. A student who fails to respond to reasonable faculty direction regarding such behavior may be dismissed from class. A student who is dismissed is entitled to due process and will be afforded such rights as soon as possible following dismissal. If found in violation, a student may be administratively withdrawn and may receive a grade of WF. More detailed descriptions of examples of disruptive behavior are provided in the Clayton State University Academic Catalog and Student Handbook. Writing Assistance: The Writers Studio 224 is located in the A&S building, room 224. There you can talk with trained writing consultants about your writing projects. They are available to work with you at any stage of your paper, from generating ideas to organizing your paper to understanding how to format it correctly. The service is free; you may drop in and wait for a consultant or sign up for a regular appointment. But remember: you, not your consultant, are ultimately responsible for the quality and content of the papers you submit. Aside from meeting with consultants one-with-one, you can also participate in consultant-led writing workshops. In these workshops, consultants will guide you in discussions and activities important to academic writing topics. Consultants and student-writers will collaborate on ways to apply writing concepts and strategies to specific writing situations. You will be identify, analyze, integrate, and synthesize writing principles through a series of writing exercises. Remember that we are here to collaborate with you as you develop your own experiences as a student-writer. http://www.clayton.edu/arts-sciences/english/writersstudio There you will find a link to register for appointments online: http://clayton.mywconline.com You will need to do a one-time registration.
