Last day of quarter: September 1st
Acceptable Behavior
As a student at Tacoma Community College, you have agreed to abide by the student code of conduct. The TCC Code of Conduct can be found on the TCC website (http://www.tacomacc.edu/abouttcc/policies/codeofstudentconduct)
Even in an online setting, it is expected that you will conduct yourself in a respectful manner. Balancing your time as a student with the rest of your life (work, family, etc.), can be very trying. It is easy to get frustrated, especially in an online environment, but I want to emphasize the importance of respecting diversity and being pro-active and responsible for yourself, your words, and your actions. My primary goal is to support you as you take responsibility for your education, so please communicate and do so with kindness. The general idea of "treat others the way you want to be treated" along with our outlined code of conduct, is something I take very seriously and will be very explicit about throughout the quarter.
Access and Accommodations
Your access in the learning environment is important to me. If you have already established disability accommodations with the Access Services office, please communicate your approved accommodations to me at your earliest convenience so we can discuss your needs in this course. You can request that Access Services email your Letter of Accommodation to me, or you can provide me with printed copies.
If you have a disability or health condition that may benefit from accommodations to ensure access and support success in this course—and have not yet established services, please contact Access Services at (253) 460-4437 or access@tacomacc.edu.
Access Services offers resources and coordinates reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities and/or temporary health conditions. Services are established through an interactive process that begins with an intake appointment. Access Services is located in Building 7.
Library
TCC’s Library offers access to a range of research materials including books, e-books, DVDs/CDs, and subscription databases that carry thousands of publications covering a wide range of disciplines. The faculty librarians offer research support for all students, of all levels of research experience. Library faculty (Melissa, Rebekah, Heather, Jennifer, Sherry, Christina, Chris, Becky and yours truly) are available during all hours the Library is open. Find one at the Reference Desk or call 566-5134.
Writing and Tutoring Center
TCC’s Writing and Tutoring Center, located on the 2nd floor of Building 7, Rm 221, offers you one-on-one help with your writing. Tutors are available to discuss your work, help you to think about your writing process, suggest revising strategies, and discuss ways to approach an assignment. All services are free. Making an appointment is recommended. Contact the Center at 566-6032.
Student Resources
I recognize that TCC students experience a range of information and resource needs in their academic, professional, and personal lives. TCC's Student Resources Guide has information and resources to help you with everything from Canvas support to food and housing insecurity.
College Closure and Class Cancellation
Should the TCC campus close for weather or other extenuating circumstance, you should not come to campus. Generally the expectation is that you will turn in work the next time your classes meet. (However, you are still expected to turn in work on time for this class online!) If any face-to-face class is cancelled, an email is sent if time allows, and a note is posted on the classroom door. Information about school closures, partial or total, will be available at 253-566-5000 (a recorded message will give the caller up-to-date information on closures) or on the TCC home page by 6:15 a.m. www.tacomacc.edu (a message will be placed there only if the college will be closed).
Academic Dishonesty
It is the official policy of Tacoma Community College that cheating, plagiarism, fabrication, and other forms of academic misconduct are grounds for disciplinary action under the Code of Students Rights and Responsibilities. The student accused of academic dishonesty may be reported to the Associate Vice President of Students Services for initiation of disciplinary proceedings which could result in disciplinary sanctions ranging from a warning to expulsion from the College. Definitions of academic dishonesty and descriptions of the hearing and appeal process are included in the Tacoma Community College Administrative Procedure for Academic Dishonesty, available in all administrative offices.
Considering the nature of LS 101, in that it is intended to give you practice using and creating information in a safe, low pressure environment, forms of plagiarism will be dealt with initially as an opportunity for individual or group instruction as appropriate. Continued or deliberate plagiarism may result in a 0 (zero) score given to that work.
Work that is a clear product of cheating, such as copying from a fellow student, will be given a 0 (zero) score. Deliberate, repeated plagiarism and cheating will result in a referral to Student Services. See the student conduct section of your TCC Portal for more information, then, ask your instructors, Library faculty, and Writing and Tutoring Center when you have questions about plagiarism and academic honesty.
Course Calenda
It changes as I make changes to the Modules; however, I go by what is published in the Modules, so please use the Modules as your course calendar. Check Announcements each time you log in to see any messages about our calendar or other items.
