Assignments are expected to be submitted on time. All papers not submitted by the date noted on the schedule are subject to a one letter grade reduction. Assignments may not be turned in more than 14 days in advance. If you complete them earlier, great! However, information may be sent to you for each assignment that may amend the assignment, or may provide you with additional information. Therefore, retain your completed assignements until 14 days prior to the due date in case they need to be modified. Changes in assignments will be kept to an essential minimum. No work completed in advance will go to waste!

One important note on written assignments... Many of your assignments will ask you to read a passage/chapter/Web page/etc., then answer questions about the reading. If you copy and paste your responses directly from the reading, I have no way of knowing whether or not you truly understand the reading. As a result, while copy and paste responses may provide the correct answers, they will not be considered "A" work in OTS 596.

There are times when verbatim responses are appropriate. For example, suppose you are asked to list the six stages of organizational Internet development. Your response would be:

Advertisement
Promotion
Interaction
Transaction
Transformation
Community.

You could whip out your thesaurus or crossword puzzle dictionary and try to come up with a synonym for each word, but it would be pretty difficult to list them any other way other than the way they are currently listed (and on top of that, it would be silly to do so). This type of verbatim answer is perfectly acceptable. However, if you were asked to list and describe the same six stages, a student who simply copies and pastes the explanation of each will not be producing "A" work, even though the answers are correct. Remember, I will only see you two days this entire semester. I need to know through your responses that you understand the material, and copying and pasting will not provide me with that information. If you need additional clarification on this, please let me know.

"Class time" is scheduled for Monday nights at 7:00 p.m. During "class time" we will occasionally "meet" on Instant Messenger as a group. We will only "meet" a couple of times during the semester as determined, so it is imperative that you arrange your schedules so that you can attend. You will be given at least a one week's notice prior to any "class time" meeting (iIf not, you will not be held accountable). Even if you are not at home, just plop yourself down for an hour or two in front of an online computer, and voila, you have joined us! Details on the "how-to's" will be provided in the syllabus.
