12. Course Policies

• Credit Hours Policy: As per the Academic Catalog (AUBH Academic Catalog - 2022-2023.pdf, p.8), each
credit of this course equates to 50 minutes of direct faculty instructions (including administrated
assessments and presentations) and a minimum of two hours of independent learning each week for
fifteen weeks.

• Instructor’s Expectations:
o Students are expected to be well prepared for working in the class.
o Students are expected to attend classes regularly and take notes.
o Students are expected to focus on class and ask questions at appropriate times.
o Students who disrupt the class in any case may receive penalty on their participation marks,
including leaving/entering the classroom while the lecture is taking place.
o No cell phones are allowed in class unless specifically directed by the instructor.
o No calculators are allowed in class unless specifically directed by the instructor.
o Labs and in class assignments cannot be made up for any reason whatsoever.

• Submission Requirements:
o Instructors are not obligated to give make up examinations or other make-up work if a student
misses a test or fails to complete assigned work, whether or not the absence is excused.
o No cell phones, notes, textbooks, or calculators are allowed during quizzes/tests/exams, unless
specifically permitted by the instructor.
o Late projects and homework receive reduced mark. Manage your load so as to keep to the set
deadlines.

• Attendance Requirements:
o All absences will be accounted, whether excused or not.
o Students are required to attend all classes punctually. If a student is 3-9 minutes late, the student
will be counted as tardy. Every three incidents of tardiness will count as an absence from one

4
 class. If a student is 10+ minutes late to a class or leave early, she/he will be counted as absent,
but she/he will be welcome to attend class so that she/he does not miss out on the content
covered in the class.
o If a student misses a class, she/he is responsible for catching up on all the content covered in
class, and she/he is responsible for completing any assignments or readings given in class. Student
should provide excuse for his/her absence within 3 working days.
o Online approved attendance:
o Attendance will be recorded from the beginning until the end of our scheduled class time. The
process includes calling out students’ names, downloading the Teams class roster after each class
session, checking the chats for the #here hashtag next to students’ names, and other modes of
verification. At AUBH, attendance means that students respond to prompts in a timely manner.
Students’ camera must be always open, otherwise the student may be marked absent

• Feedback on Assessment:
o The instructor will provide students with feedback on every assignment/assessment submitted on
a timely basis and no later than 10 days.

• Feedback on inquiries:
o The instructor will only reply to student emails sent via Outlook. Students can expect a reply
within 24 hours of the instructor receiving an email. However, this does not apply on weekends or
holidays. For example, an email received at 5:00pm on Thursday may not be answered by the
instructor until Sunday.

• Please refer to the following applicable policies in the Student Handbook
