HOME
LEARNING ASSIGNMENT POLICIES
- Home learning assignments
are due at the beginning of the period, not during or at the end of the
period. You will leave it on the designated area of the teacher's desk
before you seat.
- Home learning assignments
will be assigned two to three times a week. Check the Home learning
assignments area on the board and ask the teacher about it. In case the
teacher forgets to mention what the Home learning assignment is, and the
entire class forget to ask about it, the students are still responsible
for the Home learning assignments posted at the Home Learning Assignments
page of Mr. Pagani’s webpage (http://teachers.dadeschools.net/spagani/),
at OneNote Classroom, at Edmodo, Google Classroom, or sent through Google
School webmail. If you do not have access to the Internet at home, and you
do not have the ability nor the time to go to the media center at school
or any public library where you know there is free access to the Internet,
please, make sure you know what your Home learning assignments are before
you leave from Mr. Pagani's class, and have a
way to contact at least 5 other classmates. Ask for their cell phone
number, social media address, email, etc.
- A student with an
unexcused tardy will not be allowed to turn in Home learning assignments
for that day.
- If you were absent, you
are responsible for the missed assignments. Following an absence, it is
the student's responsibility to find out what work was missed. Each student
should arrange to have class buddies to contact when absent. Absences are
very costly in lab classes.
- Missed work is assigned a
Z in the electronic gradebook (which corresponds to an F) until it is made
up on time and according to these policies. Missed Home learning
assignments for excused absences are due the following class or the grade
will become a permanent F.
- The teacher will only
accept late work corresponding to unexcused absences at his discretion.
- The maximum grade for late
work is "C".
- The Home Learning
Assignments page at Mr. Pagani’s website, at
OneNote Classrooms, and at Google Classrooms, contain the list of Home
learning assignments since the beginning of the school year. This
facilitates you and your parents or guardians to verify how much work have
you done at home for this class. Check that frequently so you will be able
to understand better the grade you make in this class. Don't forget that
Home Learning Assignments are an easy way to earn an important part of the
value of this class. Home Learning Assignments are assignments that you
can do with the help of experts in the field, parents or guardians, other
family members, friends, peers in class, teachers online (DIAL-A-TEACHER ONLINE,
or http://www.dadeschools.net/students.asp),
etc. Don't waste this wonderful opportunity to learn while you easily earn
an important portion of your grade. Go back
