Communication, Respect, Accountability, Equity, Critical Thinking, Responsibility, Collaboration Communication We welcome your emails. To help prepare you for your future career, Wake Tech provided you with an official Wake Tech email address. All official communication from the college will be sent to your Wake Tech email. When you send emails, it is expected that you will use your Wake Tech email account.  Emails to faculty, students and staff, including those sent through Blackboard or other course communications options, should be directly related to content and class assignments, never for solicitation or other personal use. Respect and Accountability: Expectations of Faculty A key faculty responsibility at Wake Technical Community College is the assignment of student grades. Grading policies will be applied equitably, communicated to everyone, and based on best practices.  Faculty design a respectful and positive learning environment for all, demonstrating an understanding and appreciation of diversity and individual experiences.  Faculty prepare for classes and labs with lessons promoting student engagement and active learning. Faculty will:  Administer class and college policies fairly and consistently.  Effectively utilize all class time.  Maintain accurate records of attendance and academic performance.  Protect every student’s right to a positive learning experience.  Respond to student emails within a reasonable time (24 hours excluding weekends and holidays).  Report test and assignment grades within a reasonable period of time, recording major grades on Blackboard or other course learning management systems (posted within 1 – 2 weeks).  Protect the reputation and future success of Wake Tech students by upholding standards of honor and integrity, investigating carefully incidents of cheating and plagiarism.

Respect and Accountability: Expectations of Students Successful students are empowered, life-long learners who believe in themselves and are responsible, motivated, self-managing, and self-aware. We invite you to partner with faculty and staff to identify, practice and strengthen the employability skills and attributes of successful people. Students are expected to:  Protect their future success and reputation as a Wake Tech completer by upholding high standards for honor and integrity, following faculty guidelines for submitting work without cheating or plagiarism.  Verify that they have met all prerequisite(s) and/or co-requisites(s) for the course.  Be actively engaged in and responsible for their own learning.  Purchase all required texts, software, and supplies for classes at the beginning of the semester.  Complete assignments by assigned due dates.  Access Blackboard, Teams and Wake Tech course sites and Wake Tech email daily.  Know when their graded assignments and final exams are scheduled.  Be respectful of their classmates and their instructor.  Ask relevant questions and make appropriate comments that contribute to positive learning relationships.  Use technology appropriately for the purposes of learning content, interacting professionally with others, and earning grades based on their knowledge and skills.  Give the time and effort needed to succeed in the class (hint, it’s more time than you might expect for doing well with an online science, math or engineering course!).  Complete required work according to instructions, including working with teams, projects, or labs. Recording of class activities, in any fashion, is strictly prohibited without the permission of the instructor. Communication, Responsibility, Equity and Collaboration-Core Values with Student Success as our Goal! Student Code of Conduct, Rights and Responsibilities The following information highlights some of the class policies that are common to all courses in the MSE Division. Many of these policies are provided and discussed in more detail on Wake Tech’s website, Student Code of Conduct, Rights and Responsibilities (opens in new window) . [plain text URL: https://www.waketech.edu/catalog/student-code-conduct-rights-and- responsibilities]. Accommodating absences due to religious observances per the Wake Tech College Catalogue Communication is key! If you will be absent for a religious holiday, notify each of your instructors during the first two weeks to accommodate make-up work.

work created by someone else in an effort to earn credit is plagiarism, re-using one’s own work, without permission of the instructor, is “self-plagiarism” and is unacceptable because the work is not new or original. Respect for Wake Tech and our students : There are serious penalties for violating the academic integrity policy. Cheating and plagiarism undermine the core values of Wake Tech, our transfer institutions, and our community of employers who count on graduates to have earned the skills and knowledge needed for future jobs. Consequences for cheating are serious. The following academic penalties for violation of the Academic Integrity Policy may be imposed by an instructor: Academic Penalties  F for the course: Loss of Credit, will have to re-take the course in a future semester  0 for the Assignment: Loss of Grade; no make-up assignments  Reduction of grade/points on the exam/assignment  There will also be requirements for meeting with the instructor and/or supervisor; taking the remaining tests and exams in a proctored setting (virtual or on campus) to verify that the student earning the grade is doing the work  Other consequences as determined by instructor Faculty will provide written notice of any academic penalty by submitting an Academic Integrity Reporting form to a Student Services Student Conduct Officer for appropriate record keeping and response on the Student Code of Conduct. Faculty can impose an Interim/Emergency Suspension for conduct that poses a threat to the health or well-being of any member of the academic community or the activities of the college. For the complete Academic Integrity Policy, please see the Wake Tech Student Code of Conduct, Rights and Responsibilities (opens in new window) [plain text URL: https://www.waketech.edu/catalog/student-code-conduct-rights-and-responsibilities]. The MSE Division expects the highest standards of personal integrity in all academic work and behavior. As we have stated, we are partners in your education. Academic dishonesty (cheating and plagiarism for example) breaks the trust in this partnership. Effective education depends upon an atmosphere that is conducive to learning; creating such an atmosphere is the responsibility of both students and instructors. The foundation of this environment is based on a mutual commitment to honesty, trust, fairness, respect, and responsibility. This requires students and instructors to subscribe to a high standard of integrity. In every course taught by an instructor in the MSE Division, the instructor will provide the Academic Integrity Policy to each student electronically. The student will sign his/her name as directed by the instructor verifying the statement that "I have read and understand, and will abide by the policies described in the Wake Tech Academic Integrity Policy and further explained in the syllabi section Responsibility, Critical Thinking and Collaboration for Wake Tech Pride : Academic Integrity! Respect, Equity, and Collaboration: Student Supports The entire college desires that all students are successful. To support you, there are multiple places outside of class to get additional help.
