In order for teachers to accurately assess student learning all tests/exams and assignments must be the student's own work and must be submitted on time. Cheating, plagiarism, not completing work and submitting work late may result in a mark of “0” for part or all of the evaluation opportunity. Consequences will adhere to Northern Secondary School and TDSB policy and will be determined by the student’s teacher, the Curriculum Leader and, at times, the student’s guidance counsellor and Vice-Prinicpal. Northern policies are outlined in the student handbook. Students and their parents should review these policies together. Additional resources addressing plagiarism are available from the UofT Writing Centre at http://www.writing.utoronto.ca/advice/using-sources. Students and their parents should pay particular attention to the Writing Centre’s “How Not To Plagiarize” http://www.writing.utoronto.ca/advice/usingsources/how-not-to-plagiarize. WORLD HISTORY SINCE 1900 CHT301 Late Assignments Missed Tests Students are responsible for completing and submitting work on time. Students must make every effort to abide by due dates. Please refer to the Northern Secondary School Agenda regarding evaluation of late assignments. Tests will be scheduled in advance and students are expected to make every effort to attend. If you know you are going to miss a test you must discuss your options with your teacher prior to the test, otherwise a mark of zero will be recorded. It is your responsibility to make these alternate arrangements with your teacher. If you miss a test due to illness please have a parent/guardian email the teacher immediately. You must speak to the teacher upon your return to school to reschedule the evaluation and a doctor’s note might be required. Attendance and Punctuality Every class is an opportunity to think, learn and socialize. Every class missed is that opportunity lost. The consistent decision to skip, or arrive late to class, and forgo knowledge and betterment eventually becomes irrevocable. Though attendance is not worth marks, better attendance usually translates to better grades and a more complete individual. I suggest that you attend class unless you are quite ill, there is a family emergency or you are excused for school activities.
