College Policies:

Mercer County Community College is committed to ensuring the full participation of all students in all activities, programs and services. If you have a documented differing ability or think that you may have a differing ability that is protected under the ADA and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, please contact Arlene Stinson in LB 216 stinsona@mccc.edu for information regarding support services.

If you do not have a documented differing ability, remember that other resources are available to all students on campus including academic support through our Academic Learning Center located in LB 214.

Everyone in Remote and Online Classes:

You are required to complete a homework or quiz assignment on Connect® and log at least two hours of time before February 6th, or you will be withdrawn as never attending. It doesn't matter what grade you get.

Also, you will be required to purchase Connect® by the third week of classes. If you don't purchase it by the end of the fourth week of classes, you will be withdrawn.

The last day to withdraw is March 27th. All assignments from the first part of the course are due then so you will know where you stand. If at that time you are not passing and have not logged twenty hours of Connect® time, you may be withdrawn.

If you are mistakenly withdrawn, you have only a few days to notify me so I can correct it. Once you are withdrawn, you cannot receive credit for the course.

 Mercer County Community College is committed to Academic Integrity – the honest, fair, and continuing pursuit of knowledge, free from fraud or deception. Students should never:

• Knowingly represent the work of others as their own
• Knowingly represent previously completed academic work as current
• Fabricate data to support academic work
• Use or obtain unauthorized assistance in the execution of any academic work
• Give fraudulent assistance to other students.  This includes discussing quizzes, tests, and exams in any way with other students; even students not in your class.
• Unethically use technological means to gain academic advantages

When testing using Honorlock®:

• No cell phones or other electronic devices may be present.
• Your eyes should remain focused on the computer.
• You may not read questions out loud or talk to yourself, unless you have discussed this with your instructor.
• You may not have headphones or earbuds in.
• You may not minimize your browser or visit other websites during the exam.
• Do not capture, cast, or mirror your screen.
• Your camera and microphone must be active for the entirety of the exam.
• Your face must remain clearly in the view of the camera for the duration of the exam.
• You may not use notes, texts, apps, internet sites, phones, friends or other aids during the exam, unless specified by the instructor.  Your instructor may provide you with a formula sheet. You may reference the formula sheet via the Blackboard page or you may print the formula sheet.  If you print the formula sheet, you must show it during the room scan and show that you have not included any other notes on the formula sheet.
• You must show both sides of all your scrap paper during the room scan.  Scrap paper can be any type of paper (ie loose-leaf, graph, plain white printer paper).  Scrap paper may NOT be in a notebook. It must be separate sheets of paper.  You may write on both sides of the scrap paper.
• You should be the only person in the room while you complete your exam.
• Your room scan must include your entire working area, including above, below, and behind the computer. Students should clearly show their working station, desk and under desk area , including wall(s) above the monitor. Students should clearly show on the camera any area within eyesight.
• Students will show cell phones, tablets and smart watches stored in a closed drawer or put away from arms reach.
• Students will show wrist to show no watch or smart watch is on wrist.
• Students who continue to look up, left, right or down as if looking at something will be in violation of academic integrity. 

Violations of the above policy:

• First violation results in a grade of zero for the assignment AND submission of a report to the Academic Integrity Committee.
• Second violation results in a grade of F for the course AND submission of a report to the Academic Integrity Committee.
