    Course Expectations

    ● Come to class prepared to learn with a positive attitude.

    ● Chromebooks and chargers are provided by DVUSD, since this class relies heavily on digital submissions arriving to class with a charged Chromebook is an essential requirement. Opportunities to charge in class will be limited.

    ● Write in complete sentences and use your best grammar.

    ● Lessons are posted in Canvas. It is your responsibility to check Canvas and stay up to date with all coursework, if you miss school make-up work will be provided and due dates will be automatically adjusted.

    ● Ask questions! If you do not understand, there is at least one other person with the same question.

    ● Listen to learn, teacher or peer, you will wait your turn to speak. Talking over others is never an acceptable practice.

    ● Respect for others is essential. Always speak with kindness and compassion.

    Keys to Success in Science

    • Ask Questions--Inquiry is important!
    • Pay attention in class.
    • Share your ideas during class discussions.
    • Research on your own--you have the world at your fingertips.
    • Don't be afraid to make mistakes--that is how each of us learns.
    • In order to learn, YOU need to complete your assignments.
      • *With the exception of group projects, sharing documents with peers is considered plagiarism and will require everyone involved to redo the assignment for credit.
