Instruction
Attendance
COSTAATT has a minimum 65% attendance requirement for all students enrolled in degree programmes. The College has adopted a continuous assessment approach to evaluating students’ progress in attaining course objectives in order that students have timely feedback on the status of their learning. As such, students who do not attend class regularly are at risk of missing continuous assessment requirements, which will impact negatively on their final grade.
Students who are required to miss an extended number of class sessions because of illness or work obligations must provide documentary evidence from a designated authority recognised by the College, in order to be exempted from the class attendance requirement. Written approval must be provided by the Head of Department in order that the class attendance requirement may be waived for a student who has received and submitted the necessary documentation.
Punctuality
It is expected that classes will begin and end at the times designated in the Schedule of Classes. Instructors are not obliged to review material for students who routinely arrive late for class.
Cell Phone Use
Students are required to switch off or place their cell phones on vibrate mode upon entering the class, and to leave the classroom to answer any emergency calls.
