IX. CLASSROOM POLICIES:

1. Only students who are officially enrolled in the course are allowed to attend the online class. In case that a student is interested to sit in a particular class, he/she should ask approval from
the Department.
2. Students who encounter difficulty in their lessons must communicate with the instructor during online consultation time.
3. Collaboration for homework and class participation during online class discussion is highly encouraged.
4. All students should observe academic integrity. For many parts of the course, teamwork and use of modern technology are strongly encouraged and hence always indicate clearly the
intellectual ownership. If the student is caught cheating, then automatically he/she gets a score of 0 for that quiz/exam.
