Expectations from Students:

a.

Students must report to the respective sessions well before the announced time. Latecomers will not be

permitted to join the class after the scheduled time. If late, the attendance for that session will be marked as

absent.

b. Read the Case Study / material well prior to the class discussion. He/she is also expected to read the chapter

indicated in the course plan as the faculty directs.c.

In the class discussion student is expected to participate actively and contribute to individual and group

learning. Evaluation is based on active participation.

d. The participation has to be relevant and meaningful. Speaking for speaking sake will be counter-

productive. Participation by just repeating a point made or picking on what someone has said will also be

counter-productive.

e. Evaluation is a continuous process at IBS. Every student needs to be aware of the timelines given in the

section below. Absence from these evaluations will mean non awarding of marks in that particular

component

f. Wherever applicable, group assignments require each student to contribute to the group effort. This

enhances group effectiveness and leads to greater appreciation of working in groups.

g.

Formal dressing is suggested for all students. Do not roam in the academic area/ attend classes in chappals /

shorts / informal t shirts

h. Students are expected to show high regard and appreciation for class discipline and desist from using

mobile phones. This disturbs the class ambience and unnecessarily diverts attention of other students as

well as the faculty member. To avoid these, mobile phones should be switched off inside the classroom.

i.

I have given a scheduled consultation hour. Utilize this time to meet me and clarify doubts if any, seek

explanations and get mentored if needed.

j. Attendance is compulsory in all sessions. However refer to guidelines in your academic handbook for

exceptions.

Honour Code:

Unfair practices in tests and plagiarism in assignments / project work will straight away entail a

ZERO to all involved parties. It is not relevant for me to know the source and destination of

plagiarism.

Class Organization

Class Representative

Two among you will be elected / selected by consensus as Class Representative for the ISM course.

S/he will be responsible for class room arrangements, dealing with academic office, for

communicating information from me to the class and also to collect all assignments / project works

and deliver them to me.

Class Discipline

Students must have their name plates on the desk.Use of mobile phones is strictly prohibited in the class.

Students are free to ask questions/doubts/clarifications in the class on topics under discussion.

For other doubts, they should meet me in my office during consulting hours.

Students should bring laptop during Excel and MS-Access Sessions.
