Unit 1 of this text is the backbone of PowerPoint. For that reason, it is
suggested that the chapters in this unit be given additional time for
students to grasp and absorb the fundamentals of PowerPoint. With that solid
foundation under them, they should be able to work through Unit 2 and its
advanced features at a quicker pace.

note from a teacher, administrator, or the office at the time you enter the
classroom or the tardy is “unexcused”. All unexcused tardies will be
given Administrative detentions beginning with the 2nd tardy.

student finds that something is missing or not working correctly at the

on YOUR computer in order to get credit for it. Print from your computer
ONLY. Do NOT delete any work from your computer until the teacher instructs
you to do so and the work has been graded and returned to you. All students
are expected to do their own work. Any student found cheating or sharing
work will be given a zero. If a student prints work for another student,
they will both receive zeros. Work must be saved on YOUR computer until you
are instructed to delete it, in order to get credit.

recorded as a zero. Quizzes and/or tests are announced in advance. These
will be taken as scheduled unless a student has two consecutive absences
prior to test day or unless prior arrangements have been made.
After a week has elapsed, failure to make up work will result in a zero for
that assignment.You will be given two days for each day that is missed.
