Procedures and Rules

E-Culture Policy

Only student U of T email accounts should be used for course communication and all emails from students must include the course code in the subject line and should be signed with the full student name and student number.

Quercus (https://q.utoronto.ca) will serve as the primary out-of-class communications medium for this course. For all course related questions or comments please use the Quercus site.

The instructor will not respond to one-to-one emails regarding the course content or clarification on assignments. This is for the good of the whole class since there are likely others present who will have similar questions to your own. Please note that important course announcements and supplemental information will be posted to the course site in Quercus. Please check Quercus at least once daily for updates. Every effort will be made to answer questions posted to Quercus in two (2) business days.

For matters to the attention of the instructor only, it is expected that written communication will originate from your University of Toronto email accounts. All emails from students must START with the course code in the subject line (i.e. "CCT 461").

Remember that most questions not related to content can be answered by consulting a) Course outline; b) Quercus; and c) U of T website.

It is your responsibility to read your U of T email on a regular basis. This will ensure that you receive important information from your instructors and the university.

It is your responsibility to read your email regularly and check course information updates and announcements through Quercus. Students who choose to opt out of receiving messages through Quercus are still responsible for actions required, or changes communicated through those announcements and messages.

Late Penalties

You are expected to complete assignments on time. There will be a penalty for lateness of 10% deducted per day and work that is not handed in one week after the due date will not be accepted.

Accommodation for Missed Tests and Late Assignments

Starting Summer 2024, students must use the new UTM Special Consideration Request [Pilot] application for all ICCIT courses.

Students in CCT109H5, CCT110H5, CCT111H5, CCT112H5 and CCT208H5 should always follow the Special Consideration Request (SCR) process outlined below. Students in other classes should follow the process below only if they are seeking accommodation for tests or assignments worth 20% or more of the final grade. Students in other classes seeking accommodation for tests or assignments worth less than 20% should contact their instructors directly.

Reasons for special consideration could include:

Accident

Illness

Emergency procedure

Bereavement

University-sponsored athletics/competitions

Compulsory legal duties e.g. (jury duty)

Religious accommodations

Disability accommodations

Reasons for special consideration do not include*:

Pre-planned vacations or social commitments

Transportation delays

Technology malfunctions

Time management, course loads

Course conflicts, team work conflicts

Misreading a deadline/timetable

Late course enrolment

Scheduled elective medical appointments

* For these situations, refer to your course syllabus and speak directly with your instructor.

SCR Process:

You have three days or 72 Hours (including weekends) from the assignment deadline or date of the missed test/quiz to complete the SCR process in full.

The first time in the semester that you are seeking accommodation, please complete the following steps:

1. Login to ACORN, and click on Profile & Settings from the left-hand menu.

2. Click on Absence Declaration

3. Record each day that you are absent – as soon as it begins up until the day you return to campus for classes or other activities.

4. Login to the UTM Special Consideration Request [Pilot] application system and complete the required steps. Documentation is not required.

For all subsequent times that you require an accommodation, you should only login to thethe UTM Special Consideration Request [Pilot] application system and complete the required steps. Documentation is not required, however, it may be requested after the SCR has been reviewed. On your SCR form, please attach a screenshot from Quercus showing the assessment title and deadline. This will help us process your SCR accurately and avoid any misunderstandings.

Important note about missed makeup tests: As stated in the Academic Calendar, "If the student is granted permission to take a makeup test and misses it, then they are assigned a mark of zero for the test unless the instructor is satisfied that missing the makeup test was unavoidable. Students are not automatically entitled to a second makeup test."

If you are registered with AccessAbility at UTM and/or Accessible Learning Services at Sheridan, and the reason for missing a test or a deadline pertains to a disability, you are still required to submit an SCR at the link above. In such cases, the department will accept documentation supplied by the UTM AccessAbility Resource Centre. If you require further information, please speak with your accessibility services advisor. Please see the section on "AccessAbility" for more information.

Re-marking Pieces of Term Work

General

A student who believes that his or her written term work has been unfairly marked may ask the person who marked the work for re-evaluation. Students have up to one month from the date of return of an item of term work or from the date the mark was made available to inquire about the mark and file for an appeal. For example, should the work be returned or the mark be made available on March 3rd, the student has until April 3rd to inquire in writing and start the re-marking process. Instructors must acknowledge receipt of a student request for re-marking within 3-working days, and decisions should be provided in a timely fashion.

If an academic misconduct case is in progress for the piece of term work in question, a student may not appeal until the matter is resolved.

Details

Regrade requests for term work worth less than 20% of the final mark may be submitted to the person who marked the work for re-evaluation. The student must submit (1) the original piece of work and (2) a written explanation detailing why they believe the work was unfairly/incorrectly marked. If the student is not satisfied with this re-evaluation, he or she may appeal to the instructor in charge of the course if the work was not marked by the instructor (e.g., was marked by a TA). In these instances where the instructor was not the one who marked the work, the student must now submit to the instructor (1) the original piece of work, (2) the written reasons as to why he or she believes the work was unfairly/incorrectly marked, and (3) communications from the original marker as to why no change in mark was made. If a re-marking is granted by an instructor, the student must accept the resulting mark as the new mark, whether it goes up or down or remains the same. Continuing with the remark or the appeal means the student accepts this condition. Instructors and TAs should ensure all communication with the student is in writing (e.g. follow-up email) and keep a copy for later reference.

Only term work worth at least 20% of the course mark may be appealed beyond the instructor. Such appeals must first follow the same guidelines as those mentioned directly above for work worth less than 20%. To escalate an appeal beyond the instructor, the student must submit to the department (1) all previous communications between the student, original marker, and the instructor (2) the detailed reason(s) documenting why the mark for the work was inappropriate and (3) the original piece of work. If the department believes that re-marking is justified, the department shall select an independent reader. The student must agree in writing to be bound by the results of the re-reading process or abandon the appeal. Again, the student must accept that the mark resulting from the appeal may be higher or lower or the same as the original mark. Where possible, the independent reader should be given a clean, anonymous copy of the work. Without knowing the original assigned mark, the reader shall determine a mark for the work. The marking of the work should be considered within the context of the course of instruction for which it was submitted. If the new mark differs substantially from the original mark, the department shall determine a final mark taking into account both available marks.

The final level of appeal is to the Dean’s Office. Appeals must already have been considered at the two previous levels (Instructor followed by Department), with the decision reviewed by the head of the academic unit, before they will be considered by the Dean’s Office. Appeals must be submitted in writing, and include all previous correspondence, as soon as possible after the student receives the final response from the academic unit, but no later than one month after. Appeals to the Dean’s Office about the marking of term work will be reviewed to ensure that appropriate procedures have been followed in earlier appeals, that the student has been treated fairly, and that the standards applied have been consistent with those applied to other students doing the assignment. Any mark resulting from such an appeal will become the new mark, whether it is higher or lower or the same as the previous one. This process applies only to term work; appeals for re-reads of final examinations are handled directly by the Office of the Registrar.

Issues Pertaining to Term Work and Instructional Activities

Issues arising within a course that concern the pedagogical relationship of the instructor and the student, such as essays, term work, term tests, grading practices, or conduct of instructors, fall within the authority of the department. Students are entitled to seek resolution of these issues, either orally or in writing to the course instructor and, if needed, the ICCIT Director for resolution.

Following a response from the ICCIT Director, students may submit an appeal, in writing, to the Vice-Principal, Academic and Dean.
