Policy Statements

The Early Childhood Department at Edison Community College has adopted the following policies for the program.

Any student who feels she/he may need assistance based upon the impact of a disability should contact Jill Malolepszy-Boeke, Coordinator of Disability Support Services, Room 020, Ext. 7837, to coordinate accommodations for students with documented disabilities.

As a student taking a course in the ECD program:

  1. You are responsible for all assigned readings.  Assignments should be read in preparation for the class date on which they are assigned.  Pop quizzes are appropriate in all ECD classes.
     

  2. Attendance and participation in class is extremely important.  If you must be absent from class, it is your responsibility to get class notes from another student.
     

  3. All assignments must be your own work or referenced material.  Material submitted that is not your own work will receive a "0".
     

  4. You are required to do a new assignment for each assignment given.  You may not use the same assignment for two different classes in the same semester or in different semesters.  If it is discovered that you have used the same assignment in two different classes, you will be given a "0" for the second assignment.
     

  5. Article critiques, term papers, portfolio entries, and group reports must be typed, double-spaced and appropriate margins.  The first page of the assignment sheet should include the following information in the upper left-hand corner:

    Your Name
    ECD Class Number
    Name of Assignment
    Any other information that is pertinent to the specific assignment.
    Observations may be neatly handwritten
     

  6. It is very important that you learn to meet deadlines.  For this reason, due dates for assignments will be adhered to, and penalties will be assessed on late assignments.  Each instructor may set his/her own guidelines.
     

  7. You are encouraged to utilize the Learning Lab as needed for individual progress. If your assignments are lacking in writing skills, you may be required to use the writing tutors.
     

  8. All assignments are required in order to receive a final grade.

Important note:  Class outlines are a guide.  Specific assignments may be given at each class meeting; therefore, attendance is CRITICAL.
