Course Requirements and Grading

Summary of Course Grading:

Item	Course Component Weight
Formative Quizzes	0%
Summative Quizzes	25%
Discussion Boards	15%
W Paper Assignments	10%
Midterm	10%
Final Exam	10%
Final Paper	30%

*NOTE: According to university-wide policies for W courses, you cannot pass this course unless you receive a passing grade for the 15-page Final Paper, after editing based on feedback.

Formative Quizzes

Five ungraded pre-quizzes will occur at the beginning of each module, before every graded quiz so the student can gauge their learning.

Summative Quizzes

Five graded short quizzes will be administered: one on research literature readings, one on definitions of psychological terms, one on assessment review, one on physical illnesses related to mental health, and one on experiential treatments.

Midterm and Final Exams

The midterm and final exams are each composed of 25 multiple choice item questions covering the course content up through mid-semester for the midterm and last half of semester for final (thus not a cumulative final). Use the quizzes as your guide to reviewing for the Midterm and Final Exam as the same material from the quizzes will appear on these exams. You will have a 48-hour period to take each exam (see the course schedule for specific dates and times).

There are no make-ups for the exam unless professor approval is secured in advance; please plan your study and schedule in advance.

Paper

This is a W course, therefore a paper of no less than15 pages, after revising based on feedback, must be completed by the due date listed in the course schedule in order to receive credit for the course. The paper should be written, in accordance with APA style, 7th Edition. The paper must justify, based on the findings in the research literature, how the mind and body are connected followed by a practical application to your personal and professional goals with a final concluding section, made up of a summary of the paper topic and a reflection on what you learned while writing this paper (i.e., on the writing process, any new information you learned, etc.).

The paper will be broken down into several smaller W Paper Assignments:

1. Paper Topic

2. Annotated Bibliography & Outline

3. Literature Review

4. Practical Application & Conclusion

5. 15-Page Draft

6. Final Paper

Students may not use block quotes in their writing assignments or final paper. The title page, references, and any tables/figures/images included in the paper will not be counted toward the required 15-page paper length. All writing assignments must be uploaded as a Microsoft Word file or in PDF format. The final paper is graded using a rubric which can be found in HuskyCT.

Discussion Boards

Discussion boards will be completed during the Course Orientation and during Module 5. Module 5 discussion boards will be written based on specific prompts given for each of the Module 5 experientials. In order to complete the discussions, you will create an initial post about each experiential AND respond to at least one of your peer's original posts with adequate effort, analysis, and depth.

You are only required to do what is stated above. Nonetheless, participation is encouraged beyond this requirement. Specific “Discussion Guidelines” are printed below. Discussion posts are graded on completion only.

Grading Scale:

Grade	Letter Grade	GPA
93-100	A	4.0
90-92	A-	3.7
87-89	B+	3.3
83-86	B	3.0
80-82	B-	2.7
77-79	C+	2.3

Due Dates and Late Policy

All course due dates are identified in the course schedule. Deadlines are based on Eastern Time unless otherwise specified. The instructor reserves the right to change dates accordingly as the semester progresses. All changes will be communicated in an appropriate manner.

Make up or missed work due to legitimate absences should be arranged with the professor. Unless the student has made prior arrangements with the instructor, late assignments will not be accepted. This includes discussion board posts. The instructor, at their discretion, can decide to accept late work. However, points may be deducted for late work.

Feedback and Grades

The instructor will make every effort to provide feedback and grades within 2 days of the due date, although the essays may require an additional day. To keep track of your performance in the course, refer to My Grades in HuskyCT.

Weekly Time Commitment

A five week 3-credit online course requires a minimum of 25 hours per week. Since this course is for only five weeks, each student has to plan how to complete all assignments before the “close date” . All modules, assignments, discussion postings, quizzes, exams, and assessments will close on a certain date. After these closing dates, you will not be able to return back and do them unless you contact the professor. You need to pay close attention to the due dates. See the Due Dates and Late Policy section of this syllabus for more information on course deadlines.

You will need to spend time every day on the course modules to keep up. This expectation is based on the various course activities, assignments, and assessments and theUniversity of Connecticut’s policy regarding credit hours . (More information related to hours per week per credit can be accessed at the Online Student website).

Student Authentication and Verification

The University of Connecticut is required to verify the identity of students who participate in online courses and to establish that students who register in an online course are the same students who participate in, complete the course activities and assessments, and receive academic credit. Verification and authentication of student identity in this course will include:

1. Secure access to the learning management system using your unique UConn NetID and password.

Students who do not complete the above required authentication steps may be denied access to the course and given an incomplete. Students could lose credit if the identity of the enrolled student completing course activities and assessments cannot be confirmed.
