Attendance Policy

Successful online learning requires that a student actively participate in each week's learning materials which may include:

• Reading course documents, textbooks, articles and web materials.
• Submission of homework assignments, projects and papers.
• Completion of any available quizzes, exams and laboratories.
• Participation in the weekly discussion board forums, team activities and email.

Excessive absences and failure to keep up with the course pace may result in a decreased or failing course grade. Recall that this is not a self-paced course. Within each week, assignments may be worked on during times convenient to the student. However, the assignments are to be completed by the end of that academic week (Wednesday at midnight). If you are unable to participate during a particular week, please contact the instructor beforehand.
