Important: Always verify that your tutorials display correctly through your home page on the CLC Web server before e-mailing your instructor to grade them. Send a “Tutorial 1 Completed” E-mail to Your Instructor A. Important: After you have completed, uploaded, and tested your tutorial on the CLC Web server, send your instructor a “Tutorial 1 Completed” e-mail. B. The subject line of the e-mail you send your instructor should read: CIT 171: YourLastName - Tutorial 1 Completed where YourLastName is your last name If you want to submit more than one tutorial for grading at the same time use this e-mail subject line format: CIT 171: YourLastName – Tutorials 1 - 2 Completed CIT 171: YourLastName – Tutorials 1 - 3 Completed C. This e-mail is the way you let your instructor know that your tutorial is ready to be graded. D. Tutorials should be submitted for grading at least two days before the due date. E. Your tutorial will not be graded if your instructor doesn’t receive this e-mail. F. The instructor will not contact students to inform then that this e-mail was not received. G. It is the student’s responsibility to check their Blackboard gradeboook to verify that their tutorial(s) were graded before the due date. H. No points will be awarded for tutorials that were not graded before the due date 7 CIT 171: Web Page Scripting V. VI. Tutorial 1: Programming with JavaScript Your Instructor Will Grade Your Tutorial I. Within 24 hours of receiving your “Tutorial 1 Completed” e-mail your tutorial will be graded and your instructor will enter a score into your Blackboard gradebook. J. Allow at least 24 hours for your instructor to grade your tutorial from the time you send your “Tutorial 1 Completed” e-mail. K. Tutorials that can’t be accessed through the links on your home page located on the CLC Web server will not be graded (see step IV.A above). L. Your tutorial will not be graded if the “Tutorial 1 Completed” e-mail is not received by your instructor. Follow-Up to Make Sure that Your Tutorial Has Been Graded Before the Due Date A. Very Important: After you have sent your “Tutorial 1 Completed” e-mail, follow up before the due date to make sure that your tutorial has been graded. 1. Follow up to make sure that your tutorial was graded by checking to see that a Tutorial 1 score was posted in your Blackboard gradebook. The Blackboard gradebook can be accessed by clicking on the Grades button in the main menu of the Blackboard course. 2. B. If after 24 hours of sending your “Tutorial 1 Completed” e-mail you don’t see an assignment score entered in the Blackboard gradebook then: Check your CLC student e-mail account for an e-mail from your instructor with information on why the tutorial could not be graded and what you need to fix before the tutorial can be graded. If there isn’t an e-mail from your instructor indicating there was a problem grading your tutorial and you have verified that you tutorial displays from the links on your home page located on the CLC Web server, then send your instructor another “Tutorial 1 Completed” e-mail immediately. It is the student’s responsibility to follow up to make sure that their tutorial has been graded before the due date. 8 CIT 171: Web Page Scripting VI. Follow-Up to Make Sure that Your Tutorial Has Been Graded Before the Due Date (continued from previous page) C. VII. If your tutorial has not been graded before the due date you will not receive any points for the tutorial. 1. Tutorials should be submitted for grading at least two days before the due date. 2. To earn credit for a tutorial it is not enough to simply upload your tutorial to the CLC Web server on or before the due date. It is also not enough to upload your tutorial and send a “Tutorial 1 Completed” e-mail to your instructor on or before the due date. You also need to follow up before the due date to verify that your tutorial has been graded. 3. The assignment policy in this class is something new to most students. Many students like to send assignments in for grading on the due date, but that isn't how this course is structured. Because late work is not accepted in this class it is in the best interest of the student to submit their tutorials at least a couple of days before the actual due date. This way if a tutorial is incomplete or is unable to be graded for some reason, the student still has time to correct the problem and re-submit it again for grading before the due date. In this class, if a student submits an tutorial for grading on the date and it is incomplete or unable to be graded, there isn't enough time for the student to re-submit it again before the due date. Submitting tutorials for grading at least two days before the due date provides the student with a safety buffer. 4. For additional information, please see the Tutorials - Late Policy section of the syllabus. You can find the syllabus by clicking on the Syllabus button in the CIT 171 Blackboard course main menu.
