Course Policies
Weekly Timeline
In this course, the weekly schedule will run from Tuesday to Tuesday at 9:00am (Eastern Standard Time).
This timeframe should give you adequate opportunity to complete your assignments.
Late Assignments
This course has a strict late policy due to the brevity (7 weeks) of the class structure. Assignments,
discussions, and projects submitted after the assigned date/time will not be accepted without approval
of the instructor prior to the submission date or deadline and due to unusual or unforeseen issues. Late
assignments will be graded as a zero. Communicate in advance with the instructor regarding concerns.
To earn full points for a graded discussion, students must post a minimum of 4 substantial posts
throughout the week (Tuesday to Tuesday at 9:00am EST). See discussion expectations in Canvas.
Email Tips
• Forward your FSU email account to whatever email account you access most frequently
• Include a brief description in the email subject that describes the purpose of the email
• Use the title your instructor or peer prefers for communication
• Avoid using slang or text type (i.e., no emojis, smiley faces, abbreviations)
• Use correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation
• Include a screenshot or a quick video/audio of your question, if appropriate
• Florida has very broad public records laws. Most written communications to or from
state/university employees and students are public records and available to the public and
media upon request. Your e-mail communications may therefore be subject to public disclosure.
