General Information Students should consult the following resources regarding
academic decorum: Undergraduate Bulletin and The Student Code of
Conduct. Coronavirus Policy Students are required to follow University policy
regarding coronavirus safety (Coronavirus Information) in both
lecture and laboratory settings. Academic Integrity As outlined in The Student Code of
Conduct, violations of academic integrity are prohibited at
Youngstown State University. This includes plagiarism, the
unauthorized use of tools or notes in taking tests or completing assignments,
fabrication of data or information used for an assignment, working with
others without permission from the instructor, and more, including knowing
about past, current, or impending cases of academic dishonesty and not
reporting it to me. Students are hereby notified that violations
of academic integrity, in all its forms, will be met with severe sanctions. Unless a device is explicitly permitted by Dr. Cooper, the use
of all electronic devices during examinations, quizzes, etc., is strictly
prohibited. This includes
cellular phones and smart watches!!! During
examinations and quizzes, regardless if
for the lecture or laboratory component of the course, students must not be
in possession of their mobile phones, any watches, or any type of electronic
device unless authorized to possess one. Students violating this
policy will be suspected to have committed academic dishonesty. Electronic Communication/Data Storage Devices During Lecture Students failing to meet the following course policy
expectations will be invited to leave the classroom until such time that they
agree to comply. Moreover, I reserve the right to confiscate any
device used in opposition to this policy. Confiscated devices
shall be returned after the lecture period. · During
lecture, all cellular telephones or other electronic communication devices
must be turned off or set in the quiet/vibration mode of
operation. Students shall not
use cell phones or smart watches during lecture for communication, including texting. If
a student has an urgent need to use a cell phone, please quietly leave the
classroom before using the device. · Data
storage devices (e.g., tablets, laptop computers, etc.) may be used during
lectures only if they are not used for non-classroom purposes
(e.g., email, internet surfing). · Lectures
may be electronically recorded provided the student obtains Dr. Cooper’s
explicit permission. Electronic Communication/Data Storage Devices in the Laboratory Electronic devices of any type, e.g., cell phones, tablets,
laptops, etc., are NEVER permitted to be used
in the laboratory unless the instructor gives specific permission for their
use for a particular situation. These items must be stored away
prior to beginning any work in the laboratory. Cell phones may be
kept on a student’s person for emergencies (NOT on a lab bench!), but their
use should be limited to areas outside the laboratory. To avoid
contaminating electronic devices, proper hand disinfection should take place
before their use. Personal Behavior At all times, students are expected to exhibit appropriate
behavior. Such behavior is delimited by University policy
(see The Student
Code of Conduct for one of many resources in this regard). During lecture and laboratory instructional periods, holding
conversations independent of taking part in an instructor-initiated
discussion is not acceptable. Such conversations are inappropriate,
distracting, and rude to instructors/peers. Please refrain from
conducting conversations that compete with classroom or laboratory
instruction. If such activity continues, the student(s) involved
shall be asked to retire from the lecture. Inappropriate behavior, including disrespect for Dr. Cooper or
a laboratory instructor, is subject to expulsion from one or more
lecture/laboratory sessions without the opportunity to begin or complete the
assigned exercises. In cases of extremely inappropriate behavior,
more severe sanctions will be recommended. Report any broken links/errors to Dr. Cooper (crcooper01@ysu.edu) |
