Beyond that, each person's frequency and quality of contribution to the class discussion will be assessed and reflected in the class participation evaluation. If you cannot attend a class it is a courtesy to inform your group or team members and myself in advance if possible. Excessive unexcused absence will result in my 5

recommending that you withdraw from the course. Bear in mind you are now in a professional school, and a member of a learning community. Thus you are expected to comport yourself as a professional person. For instance, be on time for class, do not leave the class while it is in progress for other than emergencies, turn off cell phones, be respectful of others viewpoints even if you disagree with them, and dress appropriately for a professional activity. If you know that you will be absent due to illness or a family emergency, please let me know via email and we can set up a meeting to discuss what we covered during your absence. You are expected to attend every class. You are allowed one unexcused absence without penalty. Each additional unexcused absence will be noted on your performance matrix that is shared with employer partners. I measure class participation based on the following criteria: arriving to class on time; paying attention during short lectures; attentive watching and listening prepared videos, or other media; respectful listening when I or your peers are speaking; your ability to be fully engaged in your learning without texting, checking your phone or email, or participating in other digital distractions; your ability to stay awake, etc. If you are unable to meet the above criteria, I will again note said inabilities on your performance matrix. If you are distracting others in your lack of participation, you will hear from me via email or in a short face-to-face conference before or after class.
