4. Students having difficulty with the assignments must contact the teacher prior to class time.

Your grades will be based on craftsmanship, desire for improvement, understanding of the assignment/project, and personal effort. Each assignment will graded on an individual basis
and your demonstration of improvement throughout the semester will have a major impact on your grade. There are three areas which grades will be taken-

Daily Work- 20% Includes daily assignments, and quizzes. If you are absent, you need to make
                            up all the work you missed. Students need to get a 3-ring notebook,
                            we do not have a textbook for this class and you will receive many handouts that
                           you will want to save. All daily work will be done on the computer and either
                           saved to your folder or sent to me by e-mail.
Homework- 20% Includes weekly articles (which you must read and respond to), plus any assigned 
                           work which is expected to be completed outside of the class. All homework will
                           be  done on the computer and either saved to your folder or sent to me by e-mail.
Projects- 60%     Includes all major projects and tests.
                         
Expectations-
My expectations of you are very straight forward, I expect you to demonstrate the best of your abilities throughout the Semester. I expect you to complete all daily work, homework and projects.
I do not give extra credit work, so it is important to keep your grade up you need to complete all assignments
It is very important in an ITV class to keep the lines of communication open,
if you do not understand an area or need help or would like to know about your
progress/grade - please ask.
You can always talk to me in class or e-mail me at verscjim@teen.k12.ks.us
or call me at MHS 620-382-2168 (ask for Mr. Versch)
