8. Course requirement and expectation
Class Participation: A minimum attendance of 80 percent is compulsory for the class
sessions. Students will be assessed on the basis of their class participation. Questions and
comments are strongly encouraged.
Academic Honesty and Plagiarism: Instances of academic dishonesty will not be tolerated.
Cheating on exams or plagiarism (presenting the work of another as your own, or the use of
another person’s ideas without giving proper credit) will result in a failing grade.
For this class, all assignments are to be completed by the individual student unless otherwise
specified. Students are also reminded that careful time management is an important part of
study and one of the identified causes of plagiarism is poor time management. Students
should allow sufficient time for preparation, research, drafting, and the proper referencing of
sources in preparing all assessment items. 9. Instructor information University, VNU-HCMC Address
