Handbook - Beginning & end of terms

Forms, information and papers. You will find the following important first-day materials on the counter across from the mailboxes. Please pick up enough materials for your class(es). Pick up extras if needed. Return any unneeded forms for others to use. And please let me know whenever we are running low on any materials!
-- Background Information forms (beige). Have your students complete these; return them to me as soon as possible.
-- BE Policies and Procedures handout (pink). Be sure each student has a copy of this important document, and go over it in detail in class.
-- Attendance forms. You should turn in attendance to me each week. This form is provided for you, but if you have another form you prefer (electronic, for example), please feel free to use it.
-- Class syllabus (yellow). These will be ready by the end of the first week of classes. Be sure each student has a copy of the syllabus. NOTE: The syllabus is provided as a guideline of what we would like to see covered in that class. If the class as a whole is having difficulty in a certain area, please use your best judgment in regard to spending more time on a certain topic, even if it means not . I strongly suggest using quizzes (written and/or verbal) to be sure your students are understanding the material presented.

Rosters. Current rosters will be in your mailboxes. We often get a lot of students who add during the first two weeks of classes. I’ll send updated rosters periodically.


End of each term
Course evaluation forms will be in your mailboxes before the end of the term. They will be in envelopes marked with your name and the course. There will be one envelope for each section you are teaching.

Please note the following procedure for the evaluations:
 Evaluation forms are provided in an envelope with your name and course on it. Please return the completed forms for each class in the appropriate envelope.
 I realize that your students may need some assistance with the instructions on the forms. Insofar as possible, please allow them sufficient privacy so that they can provide their true opinions and comments about the class.

The final test for each class will be provided to you. Turn in completed tests immediately so there is no delay in getting them scored for the students.
