****NOTES!!!!!
Changes to this course outline may occur and will be announced in class with at least
three days notice.
All work must be completed and handed in on time; late work will not be accepted.
Assignments given to be completed in a particular class period are not available to
complete and hand in for marks outside of that period; attendance is essential to your
success!
Regular class tests will occur on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. If you miss a test for any
reason, you will be permitted to take that test at the end of the course, prior to the final
exam, on a chosen test make-up date. All missed tests will be written on this one date.
Students are responsible for material presented by guest speakers, on video, in class
discussions, presentations, textbook material, and in class notes. Take notes in class!

your handwritten [not typed] class notes, but NO photocopied materials other than

Grading:
Attendance and punctuality are imperative to your success in this course. Every class is a double
period, so when you miss one day, you are missing two classes. Missing two days means you
have missed nearly an entire week in school. One week is one tenth of the course; two weeks
missed would mean you have been away for one fifth of the course. You are responsible to find
out what you have missed if you are absent by asking two students who were in attendance,
plus you need to check up on any instructions assigned online. Remember to access the online
practice material! I will explain the online accessibility in class. If you miss three consecutive
classes, you will be required to seek admittance back into the course by meeting with the
administrators at WAEC.
Academic Honesty:
The staff at WAEC believe it is our job to teach students how to be honest researchers and users of
information. Plagiarism means copying ideas, sentences, paragraphs and pictures you find on the
internet, in books or magazines, and submitting them as your own work. This also includes copying the
work of another student. Any form of plagiarism is unacceptable. The staff will take the following steps
in dealing with instances of plagiarism. These are cross curricular:
First incidence: conversation with teacher and opportunity to re-do assignment. Formal documentation
will be added to student file
Second incidence: a mark of zero on the assignment, meeting with administration
Third incidence: loss of credit
