Your exam and final answers must be based on information from your textbook and must be accompanied by an appropriate citation. Again, the assignment is not an opportunity for your opinion to be expounded upon or for your limited personal experience to be the litmus for all experiences to follow instead, it is to be an opportunity for you to analyze and apply the material contained in your text from a theoretical perspective. Thus the need for appropriate accompanying citations. The lack of the same will result in *Please be advise, Your answers to the exam questions MUST be grounded in your text readings. You may include your personal reflection and or opinion in your answer but it must be accompanied by information secured from the text. Again remember, you are in college pursuing a career, thus your answers must reflect the same. An answer that only reflects your opinion or personal experience will be given a grade of “zero”. Use your text and other sources (all must be cited) to support your answers. Also, one or two sentence answers will not be given full credit. In addition, your ability to express your thoughts on paper is also a critical function of a college student as well as a competent counselor therefore, I will be grading your grammar, punctuation, sentence structure and the like in all of your assignments. If I have difficulty understanding what it is you are trying to convey, your grade will reflect the same. So please, proof read your assignments prior to submission. If you know you have problems writing, please use the writing lab as a resource. Finally, should I encounter any “text” language in any assignment, I will stop grading and automatically assign a zero as the grade for said assignment. Please see your syllabus for more specific instructions a negative grade.
