In this online course, your weekly, active participation will count as your attendance.  While I do not 'mark' attendance, each week there will be assignments, and if you miss any of those, your will receive a zero, and your overall grade will suffer. In addition, the NOVA Online critical dates for student withdrawal make your regular and active participation mandatory, or you may be considered an inactive student and will be withdrawn from the course without tuition refund. (Please see the Course Summary on the Syllabus page or your course calendar for Critical Dates.)
