Grading Policies and Late Work
All assignments must be submitted by the due date and time
posted via Blackboard and in the syllabus. Any assignment not
submitted by the date/time it is due may be penalized up to 10
percent per day it is late. No late work will be accepted the final
week of the class final week of the course in which no late work
will be accepted.
NOTE: No credit will be given to Discussion Board posts that
are late and including responses to your classmates. Please plan
accordingly! No credit will be given for Discussion Board posts
that are attachments. Every post must be copied and pasted in
the forum.
If you have significant extenuating circumstances, please reach
out to me as soon as possible so that we can figure out what
accommodation might be appropriate.
I typically grade discussions on Mondays, and assignments as
soon as my schedule will allow after that. You can expect all
assignment and discussion forum grades that were submitted on
time to be posted by the end of the day each Friday (usually
earlier) after the Sunday 11:59 PM deadlines for the prior week
has passed. Please note that these timelines do not apply any
late work as out of cycle grading will need to be worked in with
other priorities. As such please do not submit assignments and
discussions late as it not only impacts your grade, but may
delay feedback.

You can expect assignments and discussion forum grades to be
posted by the end of the day each Friday (usually earlier) after
the Sunday 11:59 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST) deadlines
for the prior week that has passed.
Your grade in this course will be the evaluation of your

Required Technical Skills
In order to promote success in an online community, whether
100% online or hybrid, students must know how to use email
and navigate the Internet. Students must be familiar with their
computer or device, its programs and operating system, be able
to send messages to their instructor, upload attachments, post
assignments, communicate with other students, and navigate the
course site. Students should organize and retain copies of all
course work on a backup device or cloud storage program.
Attendance Policy

Students are required to meet the federal requirements for time
on task per the Federal Definition of the Credit Hour:
https://ifap.ed.gov/dpcletters/attachments/GEN1106.pdf
Students must log in to the course site multiple times each
week, and submit all required assignments. Verification of
participation occurs in Week 1 of the course, where students are
expected to submit all required assignments. Failure to do this
will result in the students being dropped from the course.
Students will be dropped if they don't complete at least one
graded assignment.
This course is fully online and delivered asynchronously. There
are no face-to-face components or set times that you must log
in. You are expected to participate in all course activities. Not
actively and consistently contributing online for the duration of
the course will adversely affect your grade. Students are always
expected to actively contribute to the discussions and other
activities online. A significant portion of your grade is based
upon this and you are personally responsible for the material.
It is the responsibility of each student to understand fully the
participation policies and procedures for every course in which
the student is enrolled. New England College respects student’s
religious observances. In an online environment, students are
expected to notify their instructors if they are unable to
participate fully during the time of the student’s observances.
Making up missed assignments and course contributions is the
student’s responsibility.
This course, run through the Blackboard learning system, is not
correspondence or self-paced. Students must participate in all
content, communications, assignments, discussions, blogs, wikis
and other activities throughout the course, adhering to time
frames, due dates or deadlines specified.
Note: Class absences may impact an international student’s

visa status, as immigration laws stipulate that F-1 visa students
must be in a full-time schedule and must be attending classes.
Executive Programs: All students enrolled in the Executive
Programs at New England College are required as part of the
program to attend a three-day residency during each academic
term. All residencies run from 8:00 AM until 8:00 PM over the
three days. Students must travel on the Thursday before and the
Monday after each residency. Failure to attend will result in the
student failing all three courses for the term. If a student is late
to or misses more than two sessions without the approval of the
Program Director, the student will be required to attend a three-
day make-up residency.
Expectations for Online Behavior
NEC requires a learning environment where everyone is
respected and feel safe to take the risks necessary for learning.
All online communication must be respectful and constructive.
Students who violate these guidelines will be referred to the
Office of Judicial Affairs. Students must review and adhere to
NEC’s Netiquette Guidelines.
In the event a student loses electricity, internet access, or has
difficulty accessing learning content, it is the student’s
responsibility to contact the instructor via email or phone as
soon as possible.
NEC Academic Integrity Policy: Graduate Programs
The New England College community embraces an Academic
Honor Principle. It consists of honesty, trust, and integrity.
Honesty is being true to oneself and others, engendering a
culture of trust. Trust builds mutual respect, fostering a
disposition of responsibility and civility. Integrity denotes inner
strength of character: doing what is right and avoiding what is
wrong. Students, Faculty, and Staff accept these values as
fundamental guides to our actions, decisions, and behavior.

Academic Dishonesty
Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, the
following infractions:
Plagiarism: According to the Council of Writing Program
Administrators, “plagiarism occurs when a writer deliberately
uses someone else’s language, ideas, or other original (not
common-knowledge) material without acknowledg-ing its
source.”[footnoteRef:1] Any of these activities constitutes
plagiarism: directly copying and pasting from a source without
citation; paraphrasing from a source or sources without citation;
turning in a paper, or sections of a paper, known to be written
by someone other than the student; unauthorized multiple
submissions of the same work in more than one course; and
turning in a purchased paper. [1: Council of Writing Program
Administrators. 2003. Defining and Avoiding Plagiarism: The
WPA Statement on Best Practices.
http://wpacouncil.org/files/wpa-plagiarism-statement.pdf ]
Misuse or inaccurate citation of sources: It may be possible that
a student has carried out a good-faith attempt to acknowledge
others’ work but has failed to do so accurately or fully. This
may include citing sources, but not including sufficient
information or correct formatting of the citation. These may not
be considered plagiarism, unless the student repeats the misuse
of sources after feedback from the faculty. In case of doubt
about how to cite a source, students should ask their instructor
or contact the NEC library helpdesk.
Plagiarism is a severe event that will lead to penalties that may
result in expulsion. Please consult the Academic Integrity
Policy in the NEC Catalog for specific information on
procedures regarding this policy.

Misrepresentation: Having someone else do coursework,
assignments, papers, quizzes and tests.
Facilitation of Academic Dishonesty: Helping someone else
cheat. Examples include: supplying questions and/or answers to
a quiz or examination, allowing someone to copy your
homework, doing homework together without the instructor’s
permission, seeking input from others during a take-home or
open book test.
Cheating: Deliberate deceptive behavior to avoid work and
learning. Examples include, but are not limited to:
1. Communicating with others during an exam or quiz
2. Copying all or part of homework or another’s quiz, exam, or
written work
3. Using notes when you are directed not to by the professor,
using electronic equipment to look up answers you don’t know
4. Making up data for research
5. Stealing quizzes or exams prior to their administration
6. Altering or attempting to alter college records
7. Offering a bribe to college personnel in exchange for special
treatment or favors
Because academic dishonesty violates academic integrity, it
cannot be condoned at NEC.
For further explanation on this topic, please refer to the New
England College Academic Catalog.
Credit Hours and Student Work
Regardless of the format (online or hybrid) or the time period in
which the course is offered (e.g. fifteen or seven weeks), the
student work expectation for all courses is the same. One credit
represents 45 hours of work over the course of a term (including
lectures, laboratories, recitations, discussion groups, field work,
study, etc.), averaged over each week during the term, in order

to complete the work of the course. In a three-credit course, the
expectation is that there is 135 hours of work. The approximate
student learning hours per week for a three-credit course are as
follows: 15-week course = 9 hours per week, 7-week course =
19.2 hours per week, and a 3-week course = 45 hours per week.

Discussion Forum:
Cultural differences, while difficult to observe and measure, are
obviously very important. Failure to appreciate and account for
them can lead to embarrassing blunders, strain relationships,
and drag down business performance. While some organizations
are able to make cultural diversity a source of advantage, others
do not. Identify a recent situation in the news in which an
organization failed to CONSIDER the various cultural norms of
stakeholders. Where did they fail and what would you
recommend based on your readings, research, and

Hofstede's Cultural Dimensions?

Tips for Effective PowerPoint Presentations
Preparing Your Slides:
· Presentation Design
1. Don’t overload your slides with too much text or data.
2. Let the picture or graphic tell the story. Avoid too much text!
3. Type key words in the PowerPoint Notes area listing what to
say when displaying the slide. The notes are printable.
4. Number your slides and give them a title.
5. Use the “summary slide” feature in slide sorter view to
prepare an Agenda or Table of Contents slide.
6. Prepare a company logo slide for your presentation, if you
wish.
7. You can add a logo and other graphics to every slide using
the slide master feature.
8. Proofread everything, including visuals and numbers.
9. Keep “like” topics together
10. Strive for similar line lengths for text.
· Visual Elements
1. A font size of 28 to 34 with a bold font is recommended for
subtitles. The title default size is 44. Use a san serif font for
titles.
2. Use clear, simple visuals. Don’t confuse the audience.
3. Use contrast: light on dark or dark on light.
4. Graphics should make a key concept clearer.
5. Place your graphics in a similar location within each slide.
6. The drawing toolbar is extremely useful. You can:

a. Insert clip art
b. Insert pictures
c. Use Word Art
d. Use text boxes
e. Insert charts and diagrams
f. Insert arrows, banners, and thought balloons.
7. To temporarily clear the screen press W or B during the
presentation. Press Enter to resume the presentation.
· Text
1. Font size must be large enough to be easily read. Size 28 to
34 with a bold font is recommended.
2. It is distracting if you use too wide a variety of fonts.
3. Overuse of text is a common mistake.
a. Too much text makes the slide unreadable. Stick to a few key
words.
b. If your audience is reading the slides they are not paying
attention to you. If possible, make your point with graphics
instead of text.
c. You can use Word Art or a clip art image of a sign to convey
text in a more interesting way.
· Numbers
1. Numbers are usually confusing to the audience. Use as few as
possible and allow extra time for the audience to do the math.
2. Numbers should never be ultra-precise:
a. “Anticipated Revenues of $660,101.83” looks silly. Are your
numbers that accurate? Just say $660 thousand.
b. “The Break-Even Point is 1048.17 units. Are you selling
fractions of a unit?
c. Don’t show pennies. Cost per unit is about the only time you
would need to show pennies.
3. If you have more than 12-15 numbers on a slide, that’s too
many.
4. Using only one number per sentence helps the audience
absorb the data.
5. Use the same scale for numbers on a slide. Don’t compare
thousands to millions.

6. When using sales data, stick to a single market in the
presentation. Worldwide sales, domestic sales, industry sales,
company sales, divisional sales, or sales to a specific market
segment are all different scales. They should not be mixed.
7. Cite your source on the same slide as the statistic, using a
smaller size font.
· Charts and Backgrounds
1. Charts need to be clearly labeled. You can make more
interesting charts by adding elements from the drawing toolbar.
2. Numbers in tables are both hard to see and to understand.
There is usually a better way to present your numerical data
than with columns and rows of numbers. Get creative!
3. PowerPoint deletes portions of charts and worksheets that are
imported from Excel, keeping only the leftmost 5.5 inches. Plan
ahead.
4. Backgrounds should never distract from the presentation.
5. Using the default white background is hard on the viewer’s
eyes. You can easily add a design style or a color to the
background.
6. Backgrounds that are light colored with dark text, or vice
versa, look good. A dark background with white font reduces
glare.
7. Colors appear lighter when projected. Pale colors often
appear as white.
8. Consistent backgrounds add to a professional appearance.
9. For a long presentation, you may want to change background
designs when shifting to a new topic.

Discussion Board(100 points each /30% of grade)
Students will participate in a Discussion Board forum each
week, responding to questions posted by the instructor. Students
will also reply each week to at least two other students.
· The initial post is due by Thursday 11:59 pm EST.

· At least two replies to other students are due by Sunday 11:59
pm EST.
· Posts must be submitted on time according to the instructions
above to receive full credit.
· Responding to at least two other students is a requirement. Not
responding to other students in the discussion forum will lower
your grade.
· Responses to other students should be substantive. Points will
not be earned for responses to classmates that simply state, “I
agree” or “Good point.” Responses to classmates must serve to
advance the conversation. Students may agree or disagree, but
all postings must be courteous and respectful following the NEC
Netiquette Guidelines.
· Recommended:
· Do not type lengthy posts to the Discussion Board without
saving text; work can be lost if the Internet connection drops or
times out.
· Write posts off-line in a word processing software first so that
it can be saved and then copy and paste into Blackboard. The
copy and paste may change the formatting. Post that are not
directly in the forum will not be graded. Attachments in the
discussion board forum hinders the response time and process.
· If students prefer to write posts directly in the Discussion
Board make sure to click “Save Draft” often, return to the post
and edit the text to add more content.
Email and Technical Help
NEC College Email
· Institutional communication, including communication with an
instructor, student services, administration, etc. MUST be
