Hospitals As Assigned Educational/Course Outcomes The course goals and objectives incorporate specific Associate Degree Outcomes (ADOs) established by the JCC Board of Trustees, administration, and faculty. These goals are in concert with four-year colleges, universities, and reflect input from the professional communities we serve. ADOs guarantee students achieve goals necessary for graduation credit, transferability, and professional skills needed in many certification programs. The ADOs and course objectives addressed in this class include the following: Cognitive Each student will be expected to: o Compare/contrast principles of operation including indications, contraindications, safety features, hazards for various O2 systems (including cylinders, regulators, flow meters, nebulizers, humidifiers, gas/aerosol administration devices, O2 analyzers and blenders). ADO 7 o Identify the basic anatomical structures of the cardiopulmonary system and discuss the basic physiological processes that are necessary for successful internal and external respiration. ADO 7 Academic Honesty Policy: If there is any suspicion of academic dishonesty, JCC's Academic Honesty Policy will be followed and appropriate action will be taken, up to and including assigning a failing grade for the paper, project, report, exam, or the course itself (whichever is deemed necessary). To see the policy, visit: http://www.jccmi.edu/administration/deans/Policies/Academic%20Honesty%20Policy.doc Incompletes Policy: (Excerpt from JCC Policy) "A student may request an incomplete from the instructor. The incomplete will be granted only if the student can provide documentation that his or her work up to that point is sufficient in quality, but lacking in quantity, due to circumstances beyond the student's control. Furthermore, a written plan for making up the missing work within one semester must be completed by the student. Final determination of whether an incomplete will be given is the instructor's decision." Class Conduct: Please recognize that all students have an equal right to a quality classroom experience. Behavior that would adversely affect the rights of another student (i.e. side conversations, disruptive actions, etc.) will result in those responsible being asked to leave for the remainder of the period and losing credit for any work that is missed.Winter 2011 Page 3Page 4 RES 100 Syllabus Classroom expectations: There are three expectations that will be enforced in the classroom: 1. First, attendance is very important to successfully learn and retain lecture information. Therefore attendance in class all day, every day is expected and encouraged. According to the JCC Respiratory Care Program Student Handbook, student responsibilities include “taking an active role in the learning process”, and one cannot do this if you are not there and participating in discussion and class activities. The student will be responsible for contacting the instructor to obtain any make up material needed as a result of the absence. In order to facilitate preparation of such materials, the student will probably best contact the instructor as much in advance as possible via email or phone prior to class time if there is any expected absence or any makeup material needed. Then the student will need to contact the instructor after the absence to obtain any missing materials. As for notes or other content covered during class, it is the student’s responsibility to gather such material, so going to the instructor and asking for any handouts or materials is the student’s responsibility. Also, having a fellow student from whom the student can get such notes is vital in the event of an absence. 2. In addition, the JCC Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook will be followed closely pertaining to classroom behavior. As stated in the Handbook, “Freedom to teach and learn are basic concepts of education. The rights of students are defined in order to foster an atmosphere of learning, to provide an opportunity for all students to achieve their educational goals…..” Mutual respect between the instructor and all students is expected at all times. Disrespect and other disruptive behaviors which inhibit the teaching and learning to which the entire class is entitled will not be tolerated. Any incidents will be handled in keeping with the disciplinary policy spelled out beginning on p. 25 of the JCC Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook, and appropriate action taken up to and including class expulsion.

Thirdly, assignments or take home quizzes are
