Instructional Delivery: Instructional delivery will consist of instructor lecture and laboratory exercises.  Students are expected to have familiarized themselves with the information and procedures to be covered before the lecture and laboratory sessions meet.  All instructors are required to use Canvas as a form of interaction for students.  Please make sure your correct email is listed with Ivy Tech.

Classroom Behaviors: Students and instructors each have an important role in maintaining a classroom environment optimal for learning. All parties are expected to treat each other with respect at all times, using thoughtful dialogue. Class discussions are interactive and may contain diverse opinions. The instructor and each student shall be thoughtful in sharing their perspectives and responses with one another. Behaviors such as chatting and whispering during class, the use of electronic equipment, reading the paper during class, preparing to leave before class is over, and consistently arriving late to class are all behaviors that may be disruptive. Please keep these disruptions to a minimum. Inappropriate behavior in the classroom may result in a request for the disruptive student(s) to leave the class and/or be referred to the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs. Refer to the Ivy Tech Community College Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities for more information.

Academic Honesty Statement: The college is committed to academic integrity in all its practices. The faculty value intellectual integrity and a high standard of academic conduct. Activities that violate academic integrity undermine the quality and diminish the value of educational achievement.

Cheating on papers, tests or other academic work is a violation of College rules. No student shall engage in behavior that, in the judgment of the instructor of the class, may be construed as cheating. This may include, but is not limited to, plagiarism or other forms of academic dishonesty such as the acquisition without permission of tests or other academic materials and/or distribution of these materials and other academic work. This includes students who aid and abet as well as those who attempt such behavior.

The College, therefore, views any act of academic dishonesty as a serious offense requiring disciplinary measures, including failure for the exam or specific coursework, course failure, suspension, and expulsion from the College. In addition, an act of academic dishonesty may have unforeseen effects and lead to formal processes outside the College (Student Handbook)

Copyright Statement: Students shall adhere to the laws governing the use of copyrighted materials. They must insure that their activities comply with fair use and in no way infringe on the copyright or other proprietary rights of others and that the materials used and developed at Ivy Tech Community College contain nothing unlawful, unethical, or libelous and do not constitute any violation of any right of privacy.

ADA Statement: The College seeks to provide effective services and accommodations for qualified individuals with documented disabilities. The goal of Disability Support Services (DSS) is to provide opportunities for equal access to college programs, services, and activities. DSS assists students with disabilities in achieving their educational goals through such services as academic and career counseling, adaptive testing, tutoring, note taking, interpreting, and test proctoring.

Disabilities Support Contact: Regional DSS: http://ivytech.edu/dss/

Library: The Ivy Tech Virtual Library is available to students on-and off-campus, offering full-text journals and books and other resources essential for course assignments. Go to http://www.ivytech.edu/library/indianapolis.

Safety and Violence Prevention Notice: It is imperative that if you see or hear a threat that you report it immediately. Comments such as a statement to “get even”, a threat to kill or injure someone, or to blow up the building are examples of threatening or intimidating language. The comment does not need to be made directly to the potential victim. Security should be notified first to address individuals who express violent words or behaviors. After Security is notified, an incident report should be filed through the MyIvy portal.

To notify security: dial “4806” from a school phone or call 317-921-4806 from a cell phone. If security does not answer, dial “0” from a school phone or call 317-921-4800 from cell phone to reach the Welcome Desk.

It is also important to note that in the event of any medical emergency situation, you should dial 911 immediately. This includes medical problems with students or employees. Dialing 911 is the quickest and most effective way to ensure that the person receives appropriate medical attention.

Any student who believes he/she may need assistance with evacuation in the event of any emergency situation should notify Jason Carroll at 317-916-7911 or jcarroll41@ivytech.edu.

 Title IX Statement: Ivy Tech Community College is committed to providing all members of the College community with a learning and work environment free from sexual harassment and assault. Ivy Tech students have options for getting help if they have experienced sexual assault, relationship violence, sexual harassment or stalking. This information can be found at https://www.ivytech.edu/prevent-sexual-violence/index.html.

If students write or speak about having survived sexual violence, including rape, sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, or stalking, federal law and Ivy Tech policies require that instructors share this information with the Campus Title IX Coordinator. The Campus Title IX Coordinator will contact students to let them know about accommodations and support services at the College and in the community as well as options for holding accountable the person who harmed them. When contacted, students are not required to speak with the Campus Title IX Coordinator.

If students do not want the Title IX Coordinator notified, instead of disclosing this information to their instructor, students can speak confidentially with certain individuals at the College or in the community. A list of these individuals can be found at https://www.ivytech.edu/prevent-sexual-violence/index.html under Confidential Employees and/or Community Resources.

Withdrawal: Talk to your instructor or program chair BEFORE withdrawing from this course. The last day to officially withdraw is July 20, 2019. If you are unable to complete the course, please officially withdraw from the course with the Registrar by that date. If you just stop attending but don’t officially withdraw, a failing grade is submitted as the final grade. Grades of F, FW, or W are undesirable on your college transcript and can negatively impact your financial aid eligibility. It is rarely a good idea to withdraw from a class that you have already paid for and are likely to pass. Earning a low grade is better than earning NO grade.

ACADEMIC CALENDAR:

First Day of Classes – June 10, 2019

Fourth of July (no classes) – July 4, 2019

Last Day to Withdraw without Approval – July 20, 2019

Administrative Policies for APHY 102

An incomplete designation is received by students who have actively pursued a course and are doing passing work at the end of the course but who have not completed the final examination and/or other specific course assignments.

1. The status code that displays on the student’s record is “I”.
2. To remove an “I” designation, a student must meet with the instructor and make arrangements to complete course requirements in a specified period not to exceed 30 days beyond the start of the following term.
3. After 30 days beyond the start of the following term, any incomplete status codes that have not been graded will change to an F (failing) grade.

       If a student has concerns about an incident in class, the student must first discuss those concerns with the immediate instructor.  If the incident involves lecture, the student must meet with the lecture instructor; if the incident involves laboratory, the student must meet with the laboratory instructor.  In the great majority of cases, these concerns are due to a misunderstanding.

If the student wishes to appeal an instructor’s decision, then there is a specific chain of command which is required by the Dean of Academic Instruction.  The student and instructor must meet and present in writing the incident and the decision.  If the student accepts the written decision, then the instructor will make a copy and give it to the student.  The original will be given to the APHY II course coordinator for filing.

If the student does not agree with the instructor’s decision, the student must meet with the APHY II course coordinator.  The student’s reason for appeal will be presented in writing, and the course coordinator’s decision will be presented in writing.  If the student wishes to appeal further, the chain of appeal will be to the Assistant Department Chairperson, the Science Dean, and the office of the Dean of Academic Instruction.  In each case, the student will receive a copy of all decisions.
