  5. How Do I Get Credit? • With each Student Success Activity you complete, you will accrue points – like in a video game – and the amount of Student Success points you earn will determine your grade. • Every hour of work equals 10 points and your goal is to achieve 200 points by the end of the quarter for a 4.0.

  11. Explaining Tutor Navigator • Students taking Eng. 95/96 or Eng. 97/98 may earn points by participating in our tutor navigator program. • Tutor Navigators spend time in your class, get to know your instructor and assignments, and then organizes study groups for your classes in the Student Learning Center. • Tutor Navigators can also help answer any questions you may have about your English class or other resources at NSC.

  12. Are There Any Other Requirements? • You must have accrued 100 points by the 5th week of the quarter to be eligible for a 4.0. So you must have ½ your points by the 5th week. • Tutoring sessions that take place after finals week begins do not count toward Eng. 080 • You do not earn points for just typing your paper for class or doing homework. You only get credit for doing one of the activities listed on the activity chart.

  13. When Do I Meet my instructors • You must check-in with a Page One coordinator at the beginning and end of the quarter. • Beginning of the quarter meetings are to make sure you understand the course requirements. • End of quarter meetings are to give you your grade. • We also ask that you meet either with a coordinator or Tutor Navigator at the middle of the quarter or 5th week to check on your progress.

  14. Where Do I get Started? • Once we have created a Eng. 080 Activity Log and folder for you, we will store these at the English 080 station in Page One. • Every time you come in, you will begin by picking up your folder here and clocking in on the Time Keeper.

  15. What is a Time Keeper? • The Time Keeper keeps track of the time you spend in the Page One Writing Center – so it is important to clock in and out because this is an additional way we can record your Student Success Activities. • Our friendly greeters will help you create an account on the Time Keeper.

  16. What Is The Purpose of the Eng. 080 Activity Log • To track your work, hours, and progress • Ultimately it is your responsibility to make sure every conference with a writing tutor is documented on the Eng. 080 Activity Log. • The Activity Log will be the heaviest factor in determining your grade.

  17. To summarize - • To get a 4.0 in Eng. 080, you must: Earn 200 points doing one of our SLC activities
