1.

All students must sign in with their own usernames and passwords before beginning their

work. Abusing this trust will result in loss of computer use.

2. No drinks or food near the computers, if caught you will be restricted from computer

access.

3. If the computer you are using has sound, please turn it off or use headphones. If you do

not respect your classmates by turning down the sound, then you will return to your seat

to work on other things and will not be allowed back on the computer the rest of the day.

4. A copyright is a property right attached to an original work of art or literature. It grants

the author or creator exclusive rights to reproduce, distribute, adapt, perform, or display

the protected work. Other than someone to whom the author/creator has extended all or

part of these rights, no one else may use, copy, or alter the work. Wrongful use of the

material gives the copyright owner the right to seek and recover compensation in a court

of law. A copyright gives the author or owner the right of control over all forms of

reproduction, including photocopies, slides, recordings on cassettes and videotapes,

compact disks, and other digital formats.

5. Students are often confused at what plagiarism really is. Plagiarism is very serious and it

can be a legitimate reason to give a zero on the assignment and it if it continues the

principal will be notified. Please always ask questions. The definition of plagiarize is to

steal someone else’s work and pass it off as your own. Do not copy, paraphrase, or use

someone else’s work as your own without using quotations and referencing your work to

the person who wrote it. Please be respectful and use your own words when you are

doing your assignments. If you must use someone else’s work refer to the guide in the

handouts or ask your instructor.
