Examples of SCC Attendance Policies      

Here are some examples of several instructor's Online Class attendance policies: 

ATTENDANCE POLICY: An electronic e-mail is required from each student to the instructor by the end of the drop/add period.  At this time the Instructor will drop the student from the course if it is not received.  Except in extenuating circumstances with approval by the division dean, instructors drop students from class when 80 percent attendance is not maintained. Your instructor in PSY 115 counts attendance as emails to the instructor, taking of online quizzes, submissions of homework assignments, and discussion board postings.  One such contact per week is the minimum requirement.  The end of the week is defined as 11:59 p.m. of the Saturday following the beginning of the semester, and each Saturday thereafter.  Students not meeting the minimum attendance requirement will be dropped from the class and awarded a grade of "W" or "WF" based on the student's academic standing at the last date of attendance.
