Only work submitted by the due date and time will be graded. Any work submitted late will earn a zero. Please plan ahead and see what assignments are coming up and how long it may take you to complete the activity. If extenuating circumstances arise, please send me a message in Canvas or an email before the assignment is due so that we can discuss each unique circumstance. A message or an email to me does not guarantee late work will be accepted (each circumstance will be evaluated). Technology issues don't always guarantee late work will be accepted so come up with a back-up plan if you have computer or internet connection issues. My goal is to help you in order for you to be successful so notify me early to discuss issues you may have. I will be unable to offer you help if you wait until the due date for the assignment has passed.

Students are expected to actively participate in the discussion board each week.

If a student fails to participate appropriately, the following actions may be taken:

1. The student will be dropped from the course,
   OR
2. If the date for dropping a course without penalty has passed, the student will receive a failing grade, unless prior arrangements have been made between the instructor and student.
