Technology

A majority of the class time will be spent working on computers. Students are expected to treat the computer equipment with utmost care. No food, candy, drinks, etc. are permitted in this room because of the dangers it poses to the equipment. Students are expected to remain on task at all times while using the computer. Students caught using inappropriate programs for the task at hand or using the computer for any other reason than completing an assigned task will forfeit their use of the equipment and possibly face dismissal from the class.

Disks, CD’s or other computer equipment should not be brought into the classroom for use except when permitted by the teacher. At the beginning of each mod, you should take a thorough check of your area to make sure that the equipment is in working order. You must report any problems or disturbances to your station immediately to the instructor.

The Internet is to be used only with the permission of the instructor. Acceptable use and the Internet Safety Policy of Northern Local Schools must always be followed when using the Internet. Never give your password to another student.

Behavioral Expectations

Students are expected to be in their assigned seats when the bell rings. All classroom materials will be provide to students using the school’s Moodle system. Students will be given a Moodle username and password at the beginning of the semester. Moodle can be accessed at school or at home. Students must follow all the rules outlined in the student agenda regarding classroom behavior. Above all, Be Respectful. Treat on another and the teacher with respect. You should expect this back in return. Violations of classroom policy will be handled according to the school district policy.

Grading

Final grades will be calculated based on total points accumulated for that quarter. Points will come from daily assignments, final assessments and other in class activities. Students will be forewarned of any test or assessment in advance. The absence policy of Sheridan High School will apply to this course. If you are absent on a test day, a make-up text will be given upon your return. If you are absent, you will be responsible for getting your assignment from the instructor and completing it. If computers are needed to complete the assignment, talk with the instructor to see when they are available. Attendance is very important because we “build” on the knowledge and skills learned each day.

Cheating

Cheating, in any form, will not be tolerated. Any person found to be using another’s work for his or her own benefit will be held accountable for these actions according to the school policy, in addition to possibly not receiving credit for the assignment or course. This includes both written and computer assignments. Both parties may be responsible for the infraction.
