COURSE/CLASSROOM POLICIE: The Wind Energy and Turbine technology program at Ranger College is designed to prepare students for employment in the wind energy industry. Each of the following policies directly relate to what will be expected of you on the job. Professional Behavior: You will be expected to conduct yourself in a professional manner at all times in this class. For example: 1. Be on time. If class starts at 8:00 then 8:01 is late. 2. Foul language is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. 3. Turn cell phones off in class 4. In the lab or in the turbine safety is the top priority. In these situations. Any unsafe behavior will result in immediate dismissal from the day’s class and a grade of a “0” for that assignment. Repeatedly unsafe students will be removed from the class with a final grade of “F”. 5. Attendance: Come to class. A large portion of your grade is participation. If you are not here, you cannot participate. If you sleep or do not pay attention, you are not participating. If you do not participate, you will not pass the course. In the event that a situation beyond your control arises requiring you to miss class, you may be allowed to make up the work missed. In order to meet the participation requirements of this class, you must attend 90% of all scheduled meetings. 6. Assignments: Assignments are due at the beginning of class on the day they are due. Late assignments are penalized 10 points for each day late. Assignments over 5 days late will not be accepted. 7. Academic Integrity: Do your own work. Any work turned in that is not yours will be considered plagiarism punishable by removal from the course with a grade of “F” or removal from the program and/or college 8. ADA: Ranger College provides a variety of services for students with learning and/or physical disabilities. The student is responsible for making the initial contact with the Ranger College Counselor. It is advisable to make this contact before or immediately after the semester begins. XI. ASSESSMENT (Grading Procedure) 20% Homework and participation 20% Test and Quizzes 30% Lab Final (Hands On Pass/Fail) 30% Final Exam (Comprehensive) Score 90-100 80-89 70-79 60-69 Less than 60 A B C D XII. Additional Information: Homework will be due two days (or when assigned) after completion of a chapter. Grades will be posted in the classroom. Borderline grades are rounded according to your participation in class Students are to dress in a manner which is appropriate to their department (no hats, tank tops, cutoffs, shorts, or flip-flops) Students should be prepared for pop up quizzes at all times No use of tobacco products are permitted (this includes smoking, chewing, dipping, and spitting) No drinks or food will be allowed at lab stations XIII. NON-DISCRIMINATION STATEMENT: Admission, employment, and program policies of Ranger College are non-discriminatory in regard to race, creed, color, sex, age, disability, and national origin.
