cakart@mef.edu.tr 1. Active Participation: Student participation in every aspect of the course is essential. Active participation requires attendance, research, reading, reflection, participation in class discussions, sharing observations made in K-12 schools and classrooms, asking questions and giving feedback to students who are making presentations. 2. Attendance: Attendance in class activities is very important. Working collaboratively on projects/research/reports/presentations is an important part of a teacher/counselor's role. Class participation/collaborative produce grades will only be given to students who attend the class and work with their classmates on the projects. 3. Accommodations: Any student needing special accommodations (testing, seating, etc.) must notify the instructor within the first two weeks of class. 4. Academic Integrity: In meeting course requirements, honesty is essential and students are expected to abide by MEF policy of academic integrity, prohibiting cheating, plagiarizing, or otherwise falsifying results of any work. This applies to exams, papers, reports, and all other assignments. 5. Email Addresses: Emails assigned by the university must be used to communicate by the instructor and classmates. 6. If you miss more than 30% of the course (that is more than 12 hours), you forfeit your right to do the final project and will receive a grade of FC. Rules for attendance: The student must attend at least 70% of the classes. Statement on academic dishonesty and plagiarism: Law on Higher Education Article 54. |
