PRINTED, WRITTEN DOWN ON PAPER, TYPED ON A COMPUTER, OR COPIED IN ANY<br />

COPYING OF TEST ITEMS OR CHEATING ON UNIT TESTS MAY RESULT IN FAILING THE<br />

COURSE ACCORDING TO FLORIDA TECH’S ACADEMIC HONESTY POLICY.<br />

Missed/Late Tests: You must complete all tests. Missed tests should be made up within one<br />

week <strong>of</strong> original end date for that test. If you must take a test late you do not need to ask for<br />

permission as long as it is taken within one week <strong>of</strong> the original test end date. For those taking<br />

a unit exam past the test deadline only ONE form <strong>of</strong> the test (form B) will be available. A<br />

second form <strong>of</strong> the test will not be available to those taking the test late. BONUS POINTS WILL<br />

NOT BE ASSIGNED TO TESTS TAKEN LATE. If due to an emergency or other unforeseeable<br />

circumstance you must take a test more than 1 week late points will be removed from the total<br />

possible score. That is, tests taken in excess <strong>of</strong> 1 week late will be docked 10 points per week<br />

past the 1 week deadline (e.g. if you take the test 2 weeks late the highest score you can<br />

receive is a 90). Late tests must be submitted by the unit 7 test deadline. The unit 7 test and<br />

final exams may NOT be taken late.<br />

Participation in Surveys: You will receive bonus points for every available survey that you<br />

participate in up to a maximum <strong>of</strong> 12 points.<br />

Final Exam: A comprehensive final examination worth 145 points must be completed at the<br />

conclusion <strong>of</strong> the course and will be proctored via the required Securexam Remote Proctor<br />

(SRP) device. Prior to taking the exam, students are required to take the Securexam practice<br />

test in angel to ensure the device is working properly and must read and follow all exam<br />

instructions. You must complete the entire final exam and score 70% or greater on the<br />

final exam in order to pass the course, even if you have earned 800 or more points before<br />

the final exam. You may take two forms (A and B) <strong>of</strong> the final exam if you so choose. If both<br />

versions <strong>of</strong> the final are taken, you earn the better <strong>of</strong> the two grades. Exam B is optional and<br />

may be taken: 1) if the student scores less than 70% on form A or 2) if after taking form A the<br />

student has not accumulated enough total points in the course. Form A must be taken first. If<br />

you choose to take both forms <strong>of</strong> the final exam you must wait 24 hours between taking form A<br />

and form B <strong>of</strong> the exam. If you choose to take both forms <strong>of</strong> the test BOTH must be taken<br />

before the test deadline. Exam dates are available in the session summary <strong>of</strong> this syllabus.<br />

Please note, the form A exam deadline is before the form B deadline. Students will NOT be<br />

permitted to take either form <strong>of</strong> the final exam late for any reason. Please note that illness, or<br />

technical difficulties will not result in an extension <strong>of</strong> the final exam deadlines. For this reason<br />

students are encouraged to NOT take their final exam on the last day it is <strong>of</strong>fered. The exam(s)<br />

will be available on-line, but the Securexam Remote Proctor Device provided must be used. The<br />

device will authenticate the student’s identity and monitor both the student and the student’s<br />

computer for the entire testing period. More information and final exam instructions will be<br />

distributed at the end <strong>of</strong> the term. Please read all exam instructions thoroughly.<br />

Final Exams taken outside <strong>of</strong> the USA: All final exam criteria will be the same for students<br />

living outside the United States. However, International students may have to pay an import tax<br />

fee on the proctoring device or may be required to provide a web camera and microphone for<br />

proctoring <strong>of</strong> the final exams. Email abaproctor@fit.edu for more information.<br />

*Final Exam Proctor: Legislative action through the Higher Education Opportunity Act requires<br />

that any college <strong>of</strong>fering distance learning courses for credit “…have processes through which<br />

the institution establishes that the student who registers in the distance education…course or<br />
