IRAP Year 2: Syllabus |
|
PAGE INDEX:
Withdrawing from IRAP: You are enrolled in the Indiana Reading Academy Project (IRAP) if you are completing the VoyagerU modules for course credit and have registered with the Indiana Reading Academy Project through Indiana University for 6 graduate credit hours. November 10, 2008 is the deadline established by IU and the IDOE for withdrawing from IRAP (i.e., withdrawing from the 6 graduate credit hours through Indiana University courses for which you registered). IRAP participants who register for IU courses and withdraw from the credit hours after the deadline for dropping are responsible for reimbursing IU for lost tuition. Withdrawing from IRAP will not automatically withdraw you from the VoyagerU modules, and charges for that withdrawal are described in the section below. Incompletes are generally discouraged in IU courses, and IRAP can issue incompletes only when individuals face unforeseen medical emergencies or other extenuating circumstances. These situations will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and participants who qualify for incompletes will not be charged for tuition or for VoyagerU costs.
Withdrawing from VoyagerU for Professional Development: You are enrolled in VoyagerU for Professional Development if you are completing VoyagerU modules but are not doing so for course credit. November10, 2008 is the deadline established by the IDOE and VoyagerU for withdrawing from VoyagerU for Professional Development. Withdrawing from IRAP will not automatically withdraw you from the VoyagerU modules; you must request to be withdrawn from VoyagerU. For participants who do not complete VoyagerU and drop after November 10, costs will be assessed and determined by Jayma McGann.
This course ends on May 25, 2009. If you do not complete the course by then, it is your responsibility to communicate with your instructor, as an incomplete” grade at the end of the semester is given only in cases of medical emergencies and other extenuating circumstances. If you do not complete the requirements for the course by the end of the 2009 spring semester, the instructor will give the grade that is most appropriate: FN (failed for non-attendance) is given to indicate that the failing grade was earned because a student failed to participate in the course or stopped participating before the course was over. Participation in this online course consists of communication with the instructor, posting in Oncourse, turning in assigned work on time, and completing the VoyagerU modules. (Your progress will appear on a VoyagerU online participant progress report that your instructor can access.) A student who has ceased communication with his/her instructor may receive this grade.
If you have completed some, but not all, of the required coursework, and have not made arrangements with your instructor to complete the rest of the requirements, the instructor will submit a grade that reflects your graded coursework up to date.
If you have never taken a course at an Indiana University campus (or haven't done so for several years), you must activate your IU account. Doing so will provide you with access to your IU username so that you can log onto Oncourse (a course requirement) and can take advantage of library services. To activate your account, visit the Account Management Services (click here) web page and follow the directions.
