Additional Statements of Rules and Regulations - Academic integrity statement

UNLV and its College of Education demand a level of scholarly behavior and academic honesty on the part of students. Violations by students exhibiting honesty while carrying out academic assignments and procedural steps for dealing with academic integrity are delineated within the Regulations Governing Probation and Suspension Within the College of Education. This publication may be found in the Office of the Dean of the College of Education (301).

In addition to successful academic performance in prescribed coursework, you are to enroll in a professional course of studies, which is governed by a student code of ethics and programmatic expectations. The Handbook of the Committee to Review Initial Licensure Students outlines the UNLV Student Code of Conduct, NEA Code of Ethics for the Teaching Profession, and ICS Student Expectations. The handbook is available in the ICS office.

LES is located in the Reynolds Student Services Complex, Suite 137. The phone number is 895-0866 or TDD 702-895-0652. You may also visit our website at http://www.unlv.edu/studentlife/les.

Collection of Student Assignments for Accreditation Purposes

Assignments completed for this course may be used as evidence of candidate learning in national, regional and state accreditation reports of COE programs. Names and other identifying elements of all assignments will be removed before being included in any report. Students who do not wish their work to be used for accreditation purposes must inform the instructor in writing by the end of late registration. Your participation and cooperation in the review of COE programs is appreciated. Thank you.

All kinds of beepers and cellular phones should be turned off during the class sections. The socialization unrelated to the topics and issues of group and class discussion need to be reduced to minimum level. Such disruptions are also considered in grading your participation grade. Students are encouraged to secure an e-mail account with UNLV and to use this to communicate with the professor and other students in the class during the semester.
