Makeup Policy

If you are not in school for any reason please check this site to see what you have missed. It is updated around lunch time each day. Do not come to me and ask, "what did we do yesterday?" You should already know! You should simply request what it is that you now know you need. If you have something due on the day that you miss, and it can be e-mailed to me IT SHOULD BE SENT IN ON TIME. Any other work must be turned in the DAY you return, not the next class. If you miss a quiz or test, it must be made up the DAY you return. You are responsible for your grade at all times.

Automatic Translation Policy

The use of online or other electronic resources to translate text from English to Spanish or Spanish to English is strictly prohibited unless specifically noted. The purpose of translation is to practice language skills and to deepen or to clarify your understanding of the material. Using software to translate accomplishes neither of these goals. It represents no real work on your part and is a form of cheating. Infractions will result in a grade of zero and disciplinary measures will be followed as outlined in the Student Handbook. Online dictionaries may be used, however, in a manner consistent with the use of paper dictionaries. In other words, you may use them to define words, find idiomatic expressions, look up geographical names, use grammar summaries, etcetera. If you are in doubt about the use of resources, it is your responsibility to ask and find out what is acceptable.
