Dear Students,

 

 

Academic Affairs would like to inform you about the grading system for the 2020 Summer semester.

 

 

Considering the difficulties to studying caused by the changes in the learning environment, the grading system for this semester will be at the professor's discretion.

 

In other words, in the Summer semester, the evaluation guidelines will not be applied and the average grade for each course can be evaluated above GPA 3.60. 

 

 

Plus, with the finals approaching, let us remind you once again that KDI School will not tolerate any breaches of academic integrity.

 

 

Below are the examples of unacceptable academic conduct during an examination:

 

· Looking at or attempting to look at unauthorized prepared documents (papers, books, notes, etc.). This also includes jotted notes on walls, desks, chairs, arms and hands, etc.

· Looking at another student's answer sheet or sharing answers to another student.

· Substituting another student's exam or asking for a substitution.

· Attempting to communicate with each other including speaking, laughing and any other actions.

· Pulling out or using any wireless device (laptop, smart phones, tablets) or technical aids without the approval of the instructor.

· Continuing to write after the examination timeout.

· Disobeying any instructions of a proctor, or intentionally interrupting during an examination.

· All students should adjust their cameras so that each student’s upper body and face appears on the screen when you take an online exam.

 

 

If found guilty of academic dishonesty, KDI School will impose the following disciplinary actions as written below.

 

· All types of academic dishonesty will be subject to certain disciplinary action

· “0" score for the subject assignment/exam/presentation/paper, etc.

· May receive "F" grade for that particular course, depending on the degree of academic dishonesty.

· All scholarship assumes academic integrity of students

 

 

Please be advised that ignorance of these policies will not make for a valid defense.

 

 

As a member of the KDI School community, each student is expected to understand and uphold these standards of academic integrity.

 

 

 

Thank you and good luck with your finals

 

 

 

Sincerely,
