MOA101

Assessment of academic achievement will be determined using a combination of learning activities, participation, unit tests and final examination.

Emphasis will be on individual learning experiences which will include active participation of students in classroom activities. A cooperative rather than a competitive atmosphere is encouraged. Students are responsible for making arrangements in advance of an absence with a classmate to obtain any missed work. This course will consist of specific units of study. Each student is responsible for completion of all the required (*) learning competencies. Students must be present for the final examination.

The grading scale is:

• 99-100% = A+

• 94-98% = A

• 90-93% = A-

• 87-89% = B+

• 83-86% = B

• 80-82% = B-

• 76-79% = C+

• 70-75% = C

• 65-69% = D+

• 60-64% = D

• 59% and below = E

All medical assistant students will be required to follow national accreditation guidelines and pass 100% of all psychomotor and affective competencies, and pass the cognitive domain at a minimum of 85% to pass the class, and move forward to MOA-150.

Required textbooks will be determined by department faculty.
