 Attendance Policy 

* All internship hours (144) must be completed to get credit for the class.

Blackboard Participation 

Students will be required read the textbook and answer questions on the discussion board about the textbook and their internship.   Unlike the discussion board in other classes, outside resources (other than the textbook) are not required to receive an "A". However, thorough and thoughtful responses are required and outside resources are welcome. You must reply to other students' posts in order to receive full credit for discussion board assignments. Responses such as "Keep up the good work!" or "Sounds like you're having fun," do not constitute an appropriate response and therefore will not receive credit. Late responses to other student posts do not promote interaction and will not be graded.   You will be writing about internship experiences; it is extremely important that you maintain client (and fellow student) confidentiality at all times in your posts, as well as outside the classroom.

 

Homework 

There are several homework assignments from the textbook. Homework must be submitted through Blackboard.   Homework assignments are always due by midnight on the Wednesday of the week assigned. Late assignments will lose 10% of overall grade per day.

Week Two: Homework #1 Due: Thinking things through exercise (Values Clarification Exercise), pages 16 to 17, due by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m.. (15 points)

Week Three: Homework #2:  Complete the Self-Awareness Exercise, page 38, due by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m.. (16 points)

Week Seven: Homework #3 Complete the Thinking Things Through Exercise, pages 50 to 51, due by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m.. (15 points)

Week Nine:   Homework #4 Complete the Concluding Exercises 1 and 2, page 94, due by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m.. (15 points)

Week Twelve: Homework # 5 Complete the Thinking Things Through Exercise, page 105, due by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m.. (15 points)

Week Fourteen:   Homework #6 Complete the Concluding Exercises 1 and 2 on Page 123, Due by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m.. (15 points)

Week Sixteen:   Homework #7 Choose three of the scenarios on pages 138 or 139.  Make sure you identify which scenarios you chose in your answer.  Answer the questions at the bottom of the scenarios, due by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m..   (15 points)

 

Time Sheets 

Time sheets will be turned in every two weeks. For each four week period in which no timesheets are submitted, ten (10) points will be deducted from your grade. Time sheets should be left under the door in your instructor's office. Your internship supervisor needs to sign the time sheet. It is in your best interest to keep a copy of your time sheet as well. You will be given 16 blank time sheets. If you need more than that, you are responsible for making copies.

Time Sheets are due every two weeks. Time sheets for the previous two weeks should be placed under the door of HSE 163 Instructor's office by 5:00 p.m. on the Fridays of the following weeks: Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16.

Evaluations

Your site supervisor will evaluate your performance as an intern, twice during the semester. The first evaluation will be mid semester and the second evaluation will be at the end of the semester. Each evaluation is worth 100 points.

 

Learning Plan

You and your internship site supervisor will develop a learning plan with goals and objectives towards which you will work during the semester. Goals should be specific and address skills you would like to gain as well as one personal area in which you would like to develop. This is worth 100 points and is due during week four by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. and should be submitted to HSE 163 Instructor. It may need to be revised several times before full credit is received.

 

Internship Description

You will develop a profile of your internship site, describing your responsibilities and the structure of the internship. This will be used to give other students a picture of what an internship would be like at that placement. This is worth 30 points and will be typed. It is due during week six by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. and should be submitted to HSE 163 Instructor through the link in Blackboard.  Late internship descriptions will lose 10% of overall grade per day.

 

Verbatim

The verbatim is a written record of an interaction between you and the client. You will record what happened and your analysis on the interaction. This will include your reactions and feelings. You will be given an example of a verbatim. DO NOT use any identifying information about the client. Use an initial (just one) for the name and do not give information that might lead to the client being identified. This will be typed. This project is worth 100 points and is due during week eleven by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. and should be submitted to HSE 163 Instructor through Blackboard link.

 

Psychosocial

You will complete a psychosocial history with a client from your internship placement. You will be given the format for the psychosocial history. You will interview the client and obtain information that way and you may also get information from records and other individuals involved in the situation. Please use a pseudonym for the client. This must be typed. This project is worth 100 points and is due during week thirteen by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. and should be submitted to HSE 163 Instructor through the Blackboard link.

 

Daily Journal Entries and meetings with Instructor 

You will keep a journal of your internship experience.   Each day that you are doing your internship, you will write about what you did that day, your reactions to what you did, your general thoughts about the internship, and questions this has raised for you.   You will review the journal with your HSE 163 Instructor approximately every four weeks.   You will not be graded on your opinions and thoughts but will be graded on your thoroughness and thoughtfulness about the internship and what you are learning there.   The first meeting will be worth 20 points and will include reviewing your learning plan and journal.   The three subsequent meetings will be worth 20 points each.   Journals will be submitted through Blackboard.  The journal will be graded each week and will be worth 5 points per week, assuming there are two entries a week.  If there are more entries (i.e., you are at the internship site more than two days a week) the grades will be adjusted to reflect this overall.    A site visit may be substituted for the journal review meeting. Journals must be legible (grammatically coherent) and complete to earn full points.

 

Site Visits:

Your instructor will visit you on site at your internship at least twice during the semester. This will be arranged with you and should also be a time that your onsite supervisor is at the site.   The visit will last up to an hour and will primarily involve your Instructor observing you working at the agency. Each of the two required site visits is worth 25 points. There may be additional site visits instead of meetings with the instructor.   These would be worth 20 points each.

 

Grading Scale: 

 

Scores will be posted in the Grade Book under "Course Tools" in as timely a manner as possible.

Your final grade will be based on the following scale:


Grading Scale: (Grading Scale is subject to change).

HSE 160: 250 to 225 = A, 224 to 200 = B, 199 to 175 = C, 174 to 150 = D, below 150= F

HSE 163: 750 to 675 = A, 674 to 600 = B, 599 to 525 = C, 524 to 450 = D, below 450=F

 

Attendance Policy:

 

Regular attendance at all class meetings is necessary for students to learn important concepts.  In this regard, the following class attendance policy is established:

 

1.      A student is expected to be regular and punctual in meeting all classes.  To receive credit for this course, the student must attend class prior to the Census Point and attend a minimum of 80 percent of classes, labs, and shop hours.  Failure to attend class is an absence, regardless of the excuse.  Absences are counted from the first scheduled meeting of the class, not the first day the student attends.  All work missed during absences must be made up to the satisfaction of the instructor.  Failure to complete required assignments will negatively affect the student’s final grade.  (2011-2013 Piedmont Community College General Catalog and Student Handbook)

2.      A student is considered to be “tardy” to class if the student arrives after the instructor has convened class.  Every 3 incidences of tardiness will equal one absence.  In addition, if a student misses more than 20 percent of a particular class meeting, the student will be counted absent for the entire class.

 

Withdrawal Policy

 

Students will be allowed to drop this class and receive a "W' any time before the 50% point of the semester.  After the 50% point, the student may be withdrawn by the instructor and awarded a “WP” (indicating the student’s work has been passing up to the point of withdrawal) or a “WF” (indicating the student’s work has not been awarded a passing grade).

 

Americans with Disabilities Act 

 

If you have a disability or special need that may affect your academic performance and are seeking accommodations, it is your responsibility to inform the Special Populations counselor (Mr. Brian Totten, E132, tottenb@piedmontcc.edu, 336-599-1181, ext. 296) as soon as possible. It is important to request reasonable accommodations early enough to give the Special Populations Office adequate time to consider your request and recommend reasonable accommodations. Instructors will provide necessary reasonable accommodations based on recommendations of the Special Populations Office.

 

Piedmont Community College’s Course Management System, Blackboard, is Section 508 compliant.

 

Academic Success Center

 

Piedmont Community College offers a comprehensive package of services to assist students with their academic success. The Academic Success Center (ASC) is located in Room G-204 on the Person County Campus and in Room K-152 on the Caswell County Campus. The ASC provides a variety of free learning support services including computer access, tutoring, supplemental instruction, study groups, and other academic services. Visit or call Gloria Bennett, Coordinator of the Academic Success Center, at 599-1181 ext. 276 (on the Person Campus) or Edna Brown, Assistant of the ASC on the Caswell campus at 694-5707 ext. 240 to access this valuable student resource.

 

Piedmont Community College Delay in Opening Due to Inclement Weather Procedure

 

When the College is operating on a delayed opening schedule, classes will be held for the remainder of the time left that day for all classes that are scheduled to be in session at the time that the College opens. For example, with a two hour delay, all classes that would have normally been in session at 10:00 AM will commence at 10:00 for the remainder of the class period that is left at that time. In this case, a course that is scheduled for 9:45 to 11:00 AM will begin at 10:00 and go to 11:00 AM. The lost 15 minutes will be rescheduled at a later date or dealt with through a Blackboard assignment. For purposes of consistency, this will hold true for all classes that would have been in session when the College opens, regardless of the amount of class time left. Therefore, if the College delays opening to 9:00 (a one hour delay), and a class is normally scheduled from 8:00 to 9:15 AM, that class will meet from 9:00 to 9:15 AM.

 

Cancellations will be publicized on the following radio stations:

·         WRXO/WKRX (1430 AM/96.7 FM) – Roxboro

·         WDCG (105.1 FM)

·         WCBQ (1340 AM) – Oxford

·         WRAL (101.5 FM) – Raleigh

·         WHLF (95.3 FM) – South Boston, VA

·         WAKG (103.3 FM) – Danville, VA

·         WPCM/WKXU (920 AM/101.1 FM) – Burlington

The following television stations will carry notices:

·         WRAL-RV 5, Raleigh

·         WTVD-TV 11, Durham

·         WFMY-TV 2, Greensboro

 

In addition, email notices will be sent and the announcement will be recorded on the PCC telephone answering service.

 

Internet courses will not be affected by class cancellations or delays.

 

Classroom Policies

 

1.      All classes at PCC abide by the College’s Code of Conduct Policy.  Refer to the policy in the 2011-2013 Piedmont Community College General Catalog and Student Handbook.

2.      If student fails either HSE 160 or HSE 163, both courses must be retaken.

3.      Students will sign a contract and abide by all policies.

 

Student Grievance Procedures

 

Procedures for student grievances are found in the PCC Catalog and Student Handbook. 

In attempting to resolve any student grievance involving grades, evaluations, or other fulfillments of academic responsibility, it is the obligation of the student first to make a serious effort to resolve the matter with the instructor, administrator, or committee with whom the grievance originates.

 

FERPA Statement

 

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law designed to protect the privacy of student education records and is enforced by the U.S. Department of Education. In essence, the act states that 1) students must be permitted to inspect their own educational records and 2) school officials may not disclose personally identifiable information about a student without written permission from the student.

 

Religious and Non-Religious Observance

 

In compliance with N. C. Gen. Stat. § 115d- 5(u) Piedmont Community College will grant any student of the College two excused absences each academic year for religious and non-religious observances.  Students requesting absence from class for religious observance must complete the Request for Religious Observance Student Absence Form and obtain approval at least seven days prior to the date of the absence. Students who miss class for religious observance will be granted the opportunity to make up work missed due to the absence. Please refer to 6.8.1 section of PCC's online Policies and Procedures for more details about the guidelines for requesting these absences.

 

PLAGIARISM  POLICY 7.5.1

Whether intentional or unintentional, plagiarism is “the wrongful act of taking the product of another person's mind and presenting it as one's own" (Alexander Lindey, Plagiarism and Originality, 1952).

The following acts are examples of intentional plagiarism:

·         Copying material from a published source to avoid having to devise one’s own ideas.

·         Failing to give clear and proper credit to an idea, phrase, or quotation taken from a source.

·         Purchasing a pre-written paper.

·         Having someone other than the stated author complete an assignment, or part of an assignment.

Unintentional Plagiarism occurs when a student provides sources for his or her work, but the sources are cited incorrectly or inadequately. Handbooks with documentation rules for Modern Language Association (MLA) and American Psychology Association (APA), two source documentation styles, are housed in the Caswell County Campus Resource Center and in the Person County Campus Learning Resource Center. Students are also encouraged to speak with their instructors when they are uncertain about documenting their sources in class assignments.

Plagiarism will result in disciplinary action, and repeated offenses will lead to increased penalties that may ultimately result in expulsion from the College, as set out below:

 

·         A student who unintentionally plagiarizes will receive a warning and instruction on proper citation, style, and usage for the first offense.

·         A student who unintentionally plagiarizes a second time in the same course will receive a grade of 0 for the plagiarized assignment.

·         A student who intentionally plagiarizes will receive a grade of 0 for the plagiarized assignment.

·         A student who intentionally plagiarizes a second time in the same course will receive an F for the course.

 

If a student intentionally plagiarizes or unintentionally plagiarizes for the second time in a course, the course instructor will notify the Dean of Student Development using the Plagiarism Incident Report Form.  If a student receives three course grades of F due to plagiarism, as determined by the records kept in the office of the Dean of Student Development, s/he will be suspended from the College.
