Textbook: Microsoft Office 365 Excel 2016 Intermediate, by Freund and Starks Prerequisite: Introduction to computers and a general knowledge of the Microsoft operating

system, Windows 10 Materials Needed: the textbook and access to a personal computer Course Description: See college catalog. Course Objectives: See college catalog.


Make-up Exam Policy: Since the midterm and final exams are each given at three different times

over two days and students know these dates and times from the beginning of the semester, it is expected that they will take those exams at the times they are scheduled. Any student insisting on a make-up exam will be issued the make-up version. The make-up exams are much, much more difficult than the regular exams, are cumulative, and are given in a different format. It is strongly recommended that anyone planning on a make-up exam drop the class instead.

Student Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion of CIS 106 F, Spreadsheet I, the student will be able to create a basic spreadsheet that uses a variety of data types. Upon successful completion of CIS 106 F, Spreadsheet I, the student will be able to create a worksheet that contains spreadsheet formula and other calculations. Upon successful completion of CIS 106 F, Spreadsheet I, the student will be able to create a worksheet that includes at least five different graphs representing worksheet data. The above outcomes certainly do not include all that you will learn this semester.

Assignments

Assignments are to be submitted on the due dates shown in this syllabus. Except for the last two weeks of the class, late assignments receive half credit. No late assignments that are more than a week late will be accepted the last two weeks of class. It is in your best interest, therefore, to do all of the assignments in a timely fashion.

Grades

The Danger in Giving another Student your Homework Files

Please be aware that turning in another student’s assignments as your own is not only unfair to the rest of the students in this class, but is plagiarism. Additionally, if you give another student copies of your homework assignments, that student may end up with more points than you or may accumulate the most points in the class. That would cause your grade to go down. See “How Grades are Calculated in this syllabus on page 3.

Assignments 10 points each

Midterm 100

Final 100


Network Accounts and Passwords

You must have a computer account and password in order to log on to the computers in the lab which is where you will take your exams. The computer account is your student ID number. The password is the password you received on MyGateway when you registered. Write your account number and password down and keep them in your wallet or binder so that you will have them with you when you come on campus to take exams.

How Grades are Calculated

At the end of the semester, each student's points are added up. The highest number of points accumulated by any student will constitute the top of the A grade range.

Students who have total points equal to 90% and above the highest number of accumulated points will receive an A.

Students who have total points below 90% but at least 80% of the highest number of accumulated points will receive a B.

Students who have total points below 80% but at least 70% of the highest number of accumulated points will receive a C.

Students who have total points below 70% but at least 60% of the highest number of accumulated points will receive a D.

Students who have total points below 60% of the highest number of accumulated points will receive an F.

Generally speaking, only those who take make-up tests or stop submitting assignments without officially dropping or receive a failing grade.

Department policy states that if you do not take the final exam, you cannot pass the class.

EXAMPLE OF GRADING CALCULATION Assume that 1,500 points are possible; further assume that the highest number of points earned by any student is 1,000. This means that the person with 1,000 points is at the top of the A range and gets an A. Those with 999 to 900 points receive an A also. Those with 899 to 800 points receive a B. Those with 799 to 700 points receive a C. Those with 699 to 600 points receive a D. Those with below 600 points receive an F.

Student Responsibility to Drop Classes (from our Class Schedule) “If you decide not to participate in classes for which you have registered, it is your responsibility to officially drop within published deadlines. If fees have not been paid, students who drop classes after the refund deadline will incur a financial obligation to the college and an administrative hold will be placed on their student records until fees are paid.”


Emergency Response Statement (when on campus) The college emergency response statement addresses our actions in case of an earthquake. Please take note of the safety features and study the posted evacuation route either in the hall or in the room. The most direct route to the grass may not be the safest because of the existence of roofing tiles or other potentially hazardous things. During strong quakes the recommended response is to duck, cover, and hold until shaking stops. Follow the guidance of your instructor. You are asked to go to the designated assembly area. Your cooperation during emergencies can minimize the possibility of injury to yourself and to others.

Student Conduct

Students have an obligation to become familiar with the college’s policies, rules, and regulations and to conduct themselves in a reasonable, respectful, manner conducive to attaining their educational goals. The students should refer to the college catalog under the heading Student Conduct for additional information.

ADA Statement

Fullerton College is committed to providing reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities upon request of the student (in a timely fashion) and upon verification of disability.

Lab Hours

If you do not have access to a computer, you may use the lab available to students in this class. The lab will be closed in observance of holidays when the school is closed. Computers are also available in the library.

FULLERTON COLLEGE ACADEMIC HONESTY POLICY

Students are expected to abide by ethical standards in preparing and presenting material which demonstrates their level of knowledge and which is used to determine grades. Such standards are founded on basic concepts of integrity and honesty. These include, but are not limited to, the following areas: Students shall not plagiarize, which is defined as:

stealing or passing off as one’s own the ideas or words of another, using a creative production without crediting the source.

The following cases constitute plagiarism: Paraphrasing published material without acknowledging the source, Making significant use of an idea or a particular arrangement of ideas, e.g., outlines; Writing a paper after consultation with persons who provide suitable ideas and incorporating

these ideas into the paper without acknowledgment, Submitting under one’s own name term papers or other reports that have been prepared

by others. Students shall not cheat, which is defined as: Using notes, aids, or the help of other students on tests or exams in ways other than

those expressly permitted by the instructor; Misreporting or altering the data in laboratory or research projects involving the collection of

data.

Students shall not furnish materials or information in order to enable another student to plagiarize or cheat.

Instructors may deal with academic dishonesty in one or more of the following ways:

Assign an appropriate academic penalty such as an oral reprimand (as in cases where there is reasonable doubt that the student knew that the action violated the standards of honesty); assign an “F” on all or part of a particular paper, project, or exam (for example, where it was felt that it was a one-time occurrence); or assigning an “F” in the course as in cases where the dishonesty was serious, premeditated, or part of an ongoing scheme).

Report to the appropriate administrators, with notification to the student(s), for disciplinary action by the College. Such a report will be accompanied by supporting evidence and documentation.

INDEX AND MATCH FEATURES

and OPERA DATABASE EXERCISE

Go to the professor’s website and get the Index and Match document as well as the Opera Database exercise document. Print them out so that you can use them for reference when you are doing them. Do not wait to start these as they may take some time. The Opera Database exercise document includes pages that explain in detail every database function you are expected to know for the final as well as two other functions that you will need. Keep this document for reference. It is handy for doing the database exercises and the practice final, as well as preparing for the real final.

These assignments are due by midnight,Sunday, May 6


PRACTICE FINAL EXAM

Go to the professor’s website and get the practice final exam document. Print it out so that you can use it for reference when you are doing it. Make good use of this practice exam. It is very similar to your final. The best way to approach this final (in addition to doing the homework in a thoughtful way) is to work on the practice final at least a little every day from the day you get it until the day of the final. Seek to improve your completion time and improve your ability to use the database functions without spending time in the Help menu. This reinforcement with the database functions will provide needed practice and reduce stress on the night of the final. Cramming does not work for this final no matter how macho you are. Go through it until you can do all parts of it easily and fluidly. Since the final exam is quite a bit more difficult than the midterm, you have been given assignments designed to get you ready for it. Take advantage of them. Submit the practice final and your online discussion comments via Canvas by the due date.

This assignment is due by midnight, Sunday, May 20

Final Examination

The final exam will be held on campus. You may attend one of three sessions: They will be held as follows: Friday May 25 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. Room 511 Friday May 25 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Room 511 Saturday May 26 1 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Room 511 If the rooms must be changed due to the needs of other classes, a sign will be posted on the classroom door directing students to the correct room. The final exam will cover Chapters 4-6. The test will be taken on the computer. Bring a picture ID. Per division policy, you must take and pass the final exam in order to pass the class. Be sure to put the date of your final on your calendar. Plan on attending because the make-up exam is much, much more difficult and in a different format. It is also cumulative. Do not avoid studying and then approach the instructor with any of the following:

1. One or more grandparents is/are dying that very night (a perennial favorite) 2. You are going to be out of town on the day of the final. (Really?—even after you

have been warned about how difficult the make-ups are? Students know the dates and times of the final from the first day of class and also know that not passing the final will result in failing the class.)

3. What can I do to raise my grade? (The answer is that it is too late.)
