Student Attendance and Participation Requirements
Courses provide both live lectures with mandatory online attendance and asynchronous lectures and assignments. Instructional materials will be exclusively posted in the online Moodle classroom. All assignments must be completed by their due date as detailed in the course syllabus. Late submissions will automatically be penalized via a grade reduction. Should a student encounter extreme circumstances that would prevent the submission of an assignment on time, then the student should contact the professor via email preferably before the due date and make alternative arrangements.
Clover University’s learning methodology also includes attendance requirements for live lectures, the participation in weekly discussion forums and the completion of weekly assignments that are graded.
