Academic
Integrity Policy
It is one of our responsibilities
as students and faculty at UVM is to be familiar with and adhere to the
University’s Code of Academic Integrity http://www.uvm.edu/~cses/?Page=ah.html&SM=ahmenu.html. Offenses against academic honesty are
defined in this policy as “any acts which would have the effect of unfairly
promoting or enhancing one's academic standing within the entire community of
learners.” The University has policies
regarding 4 standards of academic integrity and their violations (plagiarism,
fabrication, collusion, and cheating).
Attendance &
In-Class Participation: One of the goal of a seminar course is to
have active and informed discussion.. For that to happen
all students are expected to be present, prepared, and involved in every
class. We will work together to
construct and maintain for an environment that supports the participation of
all students. More information about
class participation is provided under Course Requirements.
In the event you miss a class, please let me know about
your circumstances as soon as possible (prior to class whenever possible by
e-mail ). You
are still responsible for information covered during that class and
assignments due or given out. You are expected to make arrangements to submit
any assignments due on time, and to have a classmate take notes and collect
class materials for you. Please be
sure you understand the material covered and contact me at the next class if
you have questions.
While I acknowledge that absences (due to illness, injury,
or personal emergencies) are unavoidable, multiple absences may negatively
impact your grade. If you miss half
the class meetings or more you are likely to not pass the course for the
semester.
Format and Submission Procedures for Written Assignments: Unless otherwise noted, all papers
should be typed, on white paper and labeled with: your name, Assignment Title, Due Date, and Semester/Course (EDFS 322). You do not need to a separate title page. Label sections heading if given.
APA Format is
relied upon in this class for citations, references, and other aspects of
professional writing (this is the style of writing most often used in the
HDFS discipline). You are expected to
become familiar with the key elements of this style as needed by reviewing
the current Publication Manual of
the American Psychological Association (APA Manual), available in
Bailey-Howe Library’s Reference Section.
Format and Submission Procedures for Written Assignments:
Hard copies and e-mail attachments of all
assignments are required. For hard
copies, please staple
all pages together (do not fold
over or paper clip pages). If you
cannot submit a hard copy an emailed copy can be used. NOTE: e-mail attachments, the name of your
file is important! Please convert
your file to Rich Text Format and name it as above with .RTF as the
extension. (If you are unsure how to
do this the UVM computer helpline can tell you .)
