MY ADVICE
Read your course syllabus!!! I have written it especially for you.
Take your syllabus quiz. Don’t lose these easy points!
Come to class on time.
The syllabus course schedule has important dates & reminders.
(let’s take a look)
PREPARING FOR CLASS
Full version of the text is fine.
The customized version is probably less expensive.
Please note the customized text does NOT have chapter numbers
PREPARING FOR CLASS
Buy the book if you have not already OR use one on reserve in the library.
You will need a book to PREPARE for almost every class meeting!
There are NO GOOD EXCUSES for not having access to a book.
PREPARING FOR CLASS
1. Take a look at the course schedule (in syllabus)
2. Access course slides from course website.
3. Use a book to answer the questions on slides that have a question mark.
PREPARING FOR CLASS
HOW TO FIND THE COURSE WEBSITE & ACCESS SLIDES
COURSE WEBSITE: http://misweb.cbi.msstate.edu/
***We use MISWEB (NOT mycourses)***
Click button under “online grades” NOT course website
Select correct class AND section
PREPARING FOR CLASS
Sample Questions from PowerPoint Slides
1. What is a line employee?
2. What is a staff employee?
3. Which is more specific – a human resources strategy or a human resource tactic? A question mark in the bottom corner of a
slide indicates you need to look up the answer in your book; I will call on you during class so be prepared!!!
PREPARING FOR CLASS
My thoughts on how to be organized…
1. Get a binder.
2. Print out slides in notes page view
3. *Only1 slide per page with
4. room to take notes*
PREPARING FOR CLASS
My thoughts on learning strategies…
1. Answer questions BEFORE class.
2. During class, take notes in a different COLOR.
Just a thought: Print slides in Notes View
1. Write your answers below slide in one color
2. Take notes during class in another color
MAKING THE GRADE
Course Activities
4 Exams* (100 points each) = 400Class participation = 20Total points = 420
*Final exam will replace lowest grade if you take all 4 exams.
MAKING THE GRADE
Grade Determination Scale
90 % and above = A (378 to 420 points)
80% to 89.99% = B (336 to 377 points)
70% to 79.99% = C (294 to 335 points)
60% to 69.99% = D (252 to 293 points)
0 to 59.99% = F (0 to 251 points)
MAKING THE GRADE
My goal = fairness
Grades are based on your individual performance rather than effort, personality, potential, or need.
No student’s final grade will be increased for any reason other than calculation error.
Please do not ask for extra credit or a higher grade at the END of the semester.
MAKE-UP EXAMS & FINAL EXAM
My advice is to take ALL exams.
Comprehensive final exam is optional unless you have missed an exam.
* Final exam time is based on MSU’s exam schedule. One is included with your syllabus: http://www.registrar.msstate.edu/Students/examschedule.html
Friday, December 4th
Optional Final Exam (noon)Please complete online request This exam will replace your lowest grade (you will not be forced to take the grade) unless you have missed an exam.
PARTICIPATION & PROFESSIONALISM
You will be given 20 points at the beginning of the semester
Participation will be evaluated each time the class meets.
Class participation & professionalism= registering for MISWEB + syllabus quiz + giving correct answers to assigned discussion questions on slides + participating in class activities + course assignment
PARTICIPATION & PROFESSIONALISM
Missing one class period may result in losing several participation points.
Each student will receive 1 “free pass” for a participation activity.
The free pass will not be reflected in your grade until the END of the semester.
Each time you miss an activity, participation question, or homework assignment, 1 point will be deducted from your grade.
Participation grades will be updated on MISWEB periodically (after each exam).
