conventions to relay design intent. This student is very motivated to succeed in the class, participates often, and (in the appropriate course studio setting) takes measures to connect with their instructors and their peers in a mature and reasoned manner. The studio design work is comprehensive, going above and beyond to integrate all course goals, objectives, and basic components. The work stands out as exemplary among their peers. “B” Fulfills expectations of the course and the curricular requirements. Students’ exam scores consistently meet the average in the peer group. The written work is usually a good response to the assignment and is well written, thoughtful and shows clear and independent thinking. This student begins to illustrate competence in critical thinking skills such as argument and support, but their work is not consistently proofread, nor clearly demonstrates complete mastery of your chosen subject matter. This student is a good communicator, but could work a bit harder on clarity, argument, research, and documentation of sources. They are motivated to succeed in the class and occasionally participate in class discussions (where applicable), or attempt to meet with their instructor. Their work shows promise of development and synthesis. “C” Under-achieves expectations. A final grade of “C” in this course illustrates that the student fulfilled most of the requirements of the course, almost fulfilled all and met most of the expectations of the course, and/ or did not fulfill all or meet most of the expectations of the course. The C range student is basically getting work done in this course, but without clarity of thought and little or no critical inquiry. The exam/ assignment scores are either just below or well below (depending upon the /-) the average for the class. This student shows little or no personal voice and is somewhat (or completely) unfocused. This student is somewhat competent in their written and graphic work, but it is often fragmented and the material is either not (or more often than not) synthesized. In the appropriate size class, this student rarely participates in class discussions and does not make (or rarely makes) an attempt to meet with their instructor to go over their work. Often you are unfocused during studio time, in your written, graphic and/or oral presentations, and personal design process/ workflow/ time management. Few critical thinking skills such as argument and support are exhibited in their work, and they often resort to opinion instead of reason. This student occasionally shows motivation to succeed, but it is not on a consistent basis. With consistent dedication to improving in those areas where the work and skills are insufficient (and by using the resources provided by their instructor and the university centers for writing and learning) this student could improve. Often, this student does not have the required personal laptop computer, struggles with graphic (hand drawn or otherwise) conventions and architectural computer programs. Note: C- is not a grade that can be given in the official final or midterm grade for courses but may be used as a marker for projects and exams within the course to distinguish between C and D work. “D” Does not meet most expectations. A final grade of a “D” in this course illustrates that the student did not meet most of the expectations or requirements of the course or the curriculum. This student is barely meeting the requirements of this course. There is a serious, consistent lack of work and/ or excessive personal absence in the course (unexcused). They may have missed assignments, classes, exams, and/or presentations (unexcused). Their work is without any clarity of thought, shows no critical inquiry or use of architectural graphic conventions/ and programs. Their exam/ assignment grades and graphic skills may be in the lowest percentage of the classes, and their written work/ and design work shows no personal voice, no research skills, or research documentation skills. This student may be using research resources without proper documentation. Their work, on the whole, is unfocused, fragmented, not synthesized, potentially cynical, or opinionated. The student did not take responsibility for the quality of the work, and made little or no effort to contact their instructor to find out how to do better within the course. When applicable, this student does not participate in class discussions and may be disrespectful to their peers or instructor. There is little/ to no work in the google drive folder, and it is not reflective of progressive learning throughout the time of the course. They illustrate no motivation. “F” Fails all expectations of the requirements and expectations of this course. This student may have missed all or most of their assignments, exams, classes, and presentations. There is little/ to no work in their google drive folder. They show no interest in their work. They made no attempt to improve their situation. ARCH 4647 ARCHITECTURE DESIGN PRAIRIE VIEW A&M UNIVERSITY V.0 COURSE SYLLABUS SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE 4

Students are encouraged to improve, edit and refine the graphic and verbal quality continually throughout the semester. No design is fixed, all work should adapt and incorporate feedback before the mid and final reviews. Students are encouraged to self-edit and will receive points for reworked graphics and designs that develop throughout the semester. Critical thinking is “the objective analysis and evaluation of an issue in order to form a judgment.” To this end - you will receive credit for applying critical thinking to your work. Building integration and design synthesis requires all assignments to be interconnected and comprehensive.

Course Procedures: Course communication File management Turning in Assignments This course, architecture design studio, is a comprehensive studio that requires the use of e-courses, MIRO, and Microsoft Teams. It is your responsibility to check your email, e-courses, MIRO, and Microsoft Teams for updates and schedule changes. Use these applications to communicate in a professional manner and turn in work on time. Class Attendance Policy (See Catalog for Full Attendance Policy) Prairie View A&M University requires regular class attendance. Attending all classes supports full academic development of each learner whether classes are taught with the instructor physically present or via distance learning technologies such as interactive video and/or internet. Excessive absenteeism, whether excused or unexcused, may result in a student’s course grade being reduced or in assignment of a grade of “F”. Absences are accumulated beginning with the first day of class during regular semesters and summer terms. Each faculty member will include the University’s attendance policy in each course syllabus. Instructor’s Attendance and Participation Policy Attendance is expected for the scheduled duration of the class session. More than three unexcused absences may constitute grounds for placement on attendance probation. Since most class meetings or general discussions will take place at the beginning of the class period, it is important that all students be in the room promptly at the beginning of class. Arriving late or leaving early, unless authorized by the instructor, will be considered unprofessional behavior and will affect your professionalism grade. All research, gathering of materials, etc. will be done outside of class time. You are expected to actively use the LAB portion of the studio to develop your project. Prairie View A&M University requires regular class attendance. Attending all classes supports full academic development of each learner whether classes are taught with the instructor physically present or via distance learning technologies such as interactive video and/or internet. Absences are accumulated beginning with the first day of class during regular semesters and summer terms. If you fail to submit the weekly tasks when due, you will be marked absent for that week. Personal Conduct STUDIO Conduct Participation and absences are accumulated beginning with the first day of class on. If you do not come to class, you may assume that you have received zero (0) points for the class period unless you have a university approved excuse in one of the following classifications: 1. Participation in an activity appearing on the University authorized activity list. 2. Death or major illness in a student’s immediate family. 3. Illness of a dependent family member. 4. Participation in legal proceedings that requires a student’s presence. 5. Religious holy day. 6. Confinement because of illness. 7. Required participation in military duties. If you miss class for one of these reasons, you must provide a memorandum plus supporting documentation to clear the absence from your record. These documents will be accepted for ONE WEEK AFTER THE ABSENCE HAS OCCURRED. There will be NO exceptions to this rule. This includes student-athletes who are to provide university forms for reporting absences to participate in approved competitions. Emails will not be accepted to clear these absences. After that, the involvement grade stands. If you have another reason other than these seven for being absent, you may submit a memorandum with supporting documentation requesting that the absence be removed from you record for ONE WEEK AFTER THE ABSENCE HAS OCCURRED. There will be NO exceptions to this rule. All requests will be reviewed and approved or disapproved based upon the justification that you provide in your memorandum. While other reasons for being absent are rarely approved; it is understood that you might feel that there is a higher priority that requires you to miss class. In accepting your decision to miss class, you must also be willing to accept the instructor’s decision to not award you involvement points for the class or classes that are missed. Students and faculty are expected to conduct themselves in ways that support individual learning and the learning of others. To that end members of the classroom community will conduct themselves in a professional and ethical manner to achieve these objectives. Any conduct construed to interfere with the learning opportunities of members of the class may result in the removal of the student from the class for that day. Repeated inappropriate conduct will result in permanent removal from the class. Based upon the fact that you are preparing for professional employment, you are expected to adhere to the following specific guidelines: ARCH 4647 ARCHITECTURE DESIGN PRAIRIE VIEW A&M UNIVERSITY V.0 COURSE SYLLABUS SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE 6

1. Conduct of the Class Formatting Documents: Exam Policy: COVID-19 Campus Safety Measures During regular class periods all students are expected to dress appropriately in accordance with university regulations so that no disruptions in the learning experience will occur. 2. Dress Code for Presentations: Professional dress is expected during the final studio presentation. 3. Eating food or consuming drinks during studio time is allowed, once you are working on your project individually. You can bring lunch to the studio and eat at your desk, as long as it does not interfere with other students' learning. Wait to eat until the group discussions are over. 4. Cellular telephones are to be turned off or put on silent ring tone during the class period. Texting is strictly prohibited during the class period. Ear phones are allowed while you are working individually. Do not use your phone for research or course projects. Phone communication during the studio is not allowed. 5. Laptops must emit no noise. Make sure your laptop is warmed up and your battery charged before class starts. A laptop is allowed only for taking notes or accessing relevant course material during the class. Checking email, playing a game, messaging and other non-class related activities are not allowed at any time. You can watch a movie or show with your headphones and on a second screen ONLY while individually working. If you are NOT working, watching videos unrelated to the studio work is not permitted. 6. STUDIO Workdays On days when there is no lecture or presentation, you are expected to come prepared to work on assignments, exercises, and/ or the project itself. This means bringing the tools required; laptop, architecture drafting tools, architecture paper and trace paper, sketchbook, reference material, exacto, modeling building tools, etc. a. You are expected to work quietly and individually for the entire class period, unless working on a group assignment. Keep talking noise levels down and focused on the studio. Leave all the other gossip and conversations for outside Studio time. b. After lectures and presentations, you are expected to work quietly for the remainder of the period. c. Use of the Fabrication Center during work time is permitted if you have an appointment there or need to use the computers and/ or equipment. Use of the Fabrication Center during studio time is permitted when assignments require model making and prototyping- but you must first sign in with the Professor. Do not make appointments on days that may have lectures and presentations - Only make appointments on explicit WORKDAYS. 7. Harassment of your fellow students of any kind will not be tolerated. Please note the following rules for the conduct of the class. 1. Class will begin at the appointed time. Attendance will be taken within the first 5 minutes. Arriving at :10 - :15 minutes into the scheduled time is considered late. 2. Class is dismissed when so indicated by the instructor. Students are expected to be on time and stay throughout the entire class period. Leaving the classroom presentation or discussion board before the class is dismissed without prior approval from the instructor will result in a loss of participation for that class. 3. Lecture Notes and Handouts will be posted on Canvas or sent to your official university email. Handouts distributed during a class period will not be distributed at any other time. It is the student’s responsibility to get a copy form another student or source. Drawings should always be formatted with visual clarity to facilitate design conversation with the Professor, your peers and visiting critics. MID-TERM and FINAL PRESENTATION REVIEWS are the exams for studio courses and must be attended as scheduled. No makeup examinations or reviews will be allowed except under documented / University approved emergencies (See Student Handbook). To promote public safety and protect students, faculty, and staff during the coronavirus pandemic, PVAMU has adopted policies and practices to limit virus transmission. Self-monitoring - Students should follow CDC recommendations for self-monitoring. Students who have a fever or exhibit symptoms of COVID-19 should participate in class remotely and should not participate in face-to-face instruction. Face Coverings - Face coverings (cloth face covering, surgical mask, etc.) are recommended in classrooms, teaching laboratories, common spaces such as lobbies and hallways, public study spaces, libraries, academic resource, and support offices, and outdoor spaces where 6 feet of physical distancing is challenging to maintain reliably. Physical Distancing - Physical distancing should be maintained between students, instructors, and others in course and course-related activities where possible. Personal Illness and Quarantine - Students required to quarantine are to participate in courses and course-related activities remotely and must not attend face-to-face course activities. Students should ARCH 4647 ARCHITECTURE DESIGN PRAIRIE VIEW A&M UNIVERSITY V.0 COURSE SYLLABUS SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE 7

notify their instructors of the quarantine requirement. Students under quarantine are expected to participate in courses and complete graded work unless they have symptoms that are too severe to participate in course activities. Students experiencing personal injury or illness that is too severe for the student to attend class qualify for an excused absence. To receive an excused absence, students must provide appropriate documentation to the Office for Student Conduct, studentconduct@pvamu.edu. University Rules and Procedures: Disability Statement (See Students with disabilities, including learning disabilities, who wish to request accommodations in class should Student Handbook): register with the Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD) early in the semester so that appropriate arrangements may be made. In accordance with federal laws, a student requesting special accommodations must provide documentation of their disability to the SSD coordinator. Students should also inform the instructor of their need for accommodations immediately at the outset of the course so that a solution designed to being successful in class can be produced. Academic Misconduct: Academic dishonesty is defined as any form of cheating or dishonesty that has the effect or intent of interfering with any academic exercise or fair evaluation of a student's performance. The college faculty can provide additional information, particularly related to a specific course, laboratory, or assignment. Forms Of Academic Dishonesty: Nonacademic Misconduct: Sexual Misconduct You are expected to practice academic honesty in every aspect of this course and all other courses. Make sure you are familiar with the University Administrative Guidelines on Academic Integrity, which can be found on the Academic Integrity webpage. Students who engage in academic misconduct are subject to university disciplinary procedures. As listed in the University Administrative Guidelines on Academic Integrity, the University Online Catalog, and the Student Code of Conduct, the following are examples of prohibited conduct. This list is not designed to be all-inclusive or exhaustive. In addition to academic sanctions, any student found to have committed academic misconduct that is also a violation of criminal law may also be subject to disciplinary review and action by the Office of Student Conduct (as outlined in the Student Code of Conduct). 1. Cheating: Deception in which a student misrepresents that he/she has mastered information on an academic exercise that he/she has not learned, giving or receiving aid unauthorized by the instructor on assignments or examinations. Examples: unauthorized use of notes for a test; using a "cheat sheet" on a quiz or exam; any alteration made on a graded test or exam which is then resubmitted to the teacher; 2. Plagiarism: Careless or deliberate use of the work or the ideas of another; representation of another's work, words, ideas, or data as your own without permission or appropriate acknowledgment. Examples: copying another's paper or answers, failure to identify information or essays from the internet and submitting or representing it as your own; submitting an assignment which has been partially or wholly done by another and claiming it as yours; not properly acknowledging a source which has been summarized or paraphrased in your work; failure to acknowledge the use of another's words with quotation marks; 3. Collusion: When more than one student or person contributes to a piece of work that is submitted as the work of an individual; 4. Conspiracy: Agreeing with one or more persons to commit an act of academic/scholastic dishonesty; and 5. Multiple Submission: Submission of work from one course to satisfy a requirement in another course without explicit permission. Example: using a paper prepared and graded for credit in one course to fulfill a requirement and receive credit in a different course. The university respects the rights of instructors to teach and students to learn. Maintenance of these rights requires campus conditions that do not impede their exercise. Campus behavior that interferes with either (1) the instructor's ability to conduct the class, (2) the inability of other students to profit from the instructional program, or (3) campus behavior that interferes with the rights of others will not be tolerated. An individual engaging in such disruptive behavior may be subject to disciplinary action. The Office of Student Conduct will adjudicate such incidents under nonacademic procedures. Sexual harassment of students and employees at Prairie View A&M University is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Any member of the university community violating the university's sexual harassment policy will be subject to disciplinary action. In accordance with the Texas A&M University System guidelines, your instructor is obligated to report to the Office of Title IX Compliance (titleixteam@pvamu.edu) any instance of sexual misconduct involving a student, which includes sexual assault, stalking, dating violence, domestic violence, and sexual harassment, about which the instructor becomes aware during thi
