Your Spring Grades & Summer Courses

























Like colleges and universities across the country, including most in Arizona, MCCCD is temporarily adjusting our grading policy in response to the COVID-19 pandemic response.

Except for courses or programs that require letter grades due to accreditation, dual enrollment, or other factors, all Spring courses continuing after April 9, 2020, will be converted to “P/Z” (credit/no credit). If you are in good standing at the end of the class, earning at least a “C,” you will receive a “P” (credit). You will also be given the option to receive the letter grade that you earned as well, more information about that process and the specifics “P/Z” (credit/no credit) is below.

Receiving a Letter Grade

If you are comfortable with your performance in a course and you prefer a letter grade, you must contact your instructor. You must contact your instructor using Maricopa email or Canvas messaging no later than one calendar week prior to the end of your course in order to request a letter grade in your course, otherwise, the P/Z grade will be posted to your transcript.





  • If you are taking multiple courses, you may choose to receive a letter grade in any one class or all of your classes.
  • If you do not inform your instructor that you wish to receive a letter grade, you will automatically be graded “P/Z” (credit/no credit).
  • Whether you choose “P/Z” or a letter grade, you must complete the semester in your classes to receive a grade and credit for the course. 


About Pass/Fail Grades


  • “P/Z” grades will not be calculated in your Maricopa GPA.
  • AZTransfer has revised transfer policies for courses taken during pandemic response. For these courses, credits earned with a grade of “P” may be counted toward graduation, toward the AGEC (Arizona General Education Curriculum), and will transfer for program credit at our Arizona State universities, GCU, University of Phoenix, and others. If you plan to transfer outside Arizona, check with your transfer institution regarding 
  • “P” grades will not satisfy course or program requirements where the requirement is a grade of “B” or higher.


Withdrawing

Even with the availability of “P/Z” grades, you may feel you are unable to continue with a class and wish to withdraw. We want to support your academic progress and hope you will stay with us to complete the semester. Please speak to your instructor about your wish to withdraw. You may be eligible for a tuition credit or partial refund.

  • Once you connect with your instructor, contact our enrollment team here so that a representative can help you determine how withdrawing may affect your academic plan and/or your financial aid/scholarships/veteran benefits.


Before You Withdraw


  • Withdrawing from class(es) can adversely affect students who receive special funding and eligibility circumstances, such as athletes, Veterans, and students receiving federal student aid, scholarships, grants, loans, or accessing employer education reimbursement plans.
  • Students who withdraw from a course will receive a grade of “W” (withdrawn, passing) or “Y” (withdrawn, failing) on their transcripts and must repeat the course in its entirety to receive credit for it.


Summer Classes Online

Maricopa Community Colleges have been taking many preventative measures to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19. Because we cannot predict when current restrictions for our communities will ease, all Summer 2020 courses will be online/alternative delivery only.

At Home Tips and Activities for Parents



















Parents, are you struggling to find the balance between work, school and time with your children? We’ve gathered some tips from the CDC to help your family stay healthy and continue learning during this time.

We also want to help keep your children entertained while you're completing your schoolwork.  Click here to download a Cody Coyote coloring page. Check back as we add more activities for you and your children.
Click here to download the full-size coloring page.

















































Keep children healthy


Watch your child for any signs of illness

  • If you see any sign of illness consistent with symptoms of COVID-19, particularly fever, cough, or shortness of breath, call your healthcare provider and keep your child at home and away from others as much as possible. Follow CDC’s guidance on what to do if you are sick.

Watch for signs of stress in your child

  • Some common changes to watch for include excessive worry or sadness, unhealthy eating or sleeping habits, and difficulty with attention and concentration. For more information, see the “For Parents” section of CDC’s Stress and Coping.
  • Take time to talk with your child or teen about the COVID-19 outbreak. Answer questions and share facts about COVID-19 in a way that your child or teen can understand.
  • Go to CDC’s Helping Children Cope with Emergencies or Talking with Children About COVID-19 for more information.

Teach and reinforce everyday preventive actions

  • Parents and caretakers play an important role in teaching children to wash their hands. Explain that handwashing can keep them healthy and stop the virus from spreading to others.
  • Be a good role model—if you wash your hands often, they’re more likely to do the same.
  • Make handwashing a family activity.
  • Learn more about handwashing and other everyday preventive actions.

Help your child stay active

  • Encourage your child to play outdoors—it’s great for physical and mental health. Take a walk with your child or go on a bike ride.
  • Use indoor activity breaks (like stretch breaks or dance breaks) throughout the day to help your child stay healthy and focused.

Help your child stay socially connected


Ask about school meal services

  • Check with your school on plans to continue meal services during the school dismissal. Many schools are keeping school facilities open to allow families to pick up meals or are providing grab-and-go meals at a central location.
  • Read our East Valley Community Resources blog for a list of school districts offering free meal pickups.


Help children continue learning


Stay in touch with your child’s school

  • Many schools are offering lessons online (virtual learning). Review assignments from the school, and help your child establish a reasonable pace for completing the work. You may need to assist your child with turning on devices, reading instructions, and typing answers.
  • Communicate challenges to your school. If you face technology or connectivity issues, or if your child is having a hard time completing assignments, let the school know.

Create a flexible schedule and routine for learning at home

  • Have consistent bedtimes and get up at the same time, Monday through Friday.
  • Structure the day for learning, free time, healthy meals and snacks, and physical activity.
  • Allow flexibility in the schedule—it’s okay to adapt based on your day.

Consider the needs and adjustment required for your child’s age group

  • The transition to being at home will be different for preschoolers, K-5, middle school students, and high school students. Talk to your child about expectations and how they are adjusting to being at home versus at school.
  • Consider ways your child can stay connected with their friends without spending time in person.

Look for ways to make learning fun

  • Have hands-on activities, like puzzles, painting, drawing, and making things.
  • Independent play can also be used in place of structured learning. Encourage children to build a fort from sheets or practice counting by stacking blocks.
  • Practice handwriting and grammar by writing letters to family members. This is a great way to connect and limit face-to-face contact.
  • Start a journal with your child to document this time and discuss the shared experience.
  • Use audiobooks or see if your local library is hosting virtual or live-streamed reading events.

Cell Phone Hotspots: iPhone or iPad

If you have an iPhone or an iPad with a connection to a cellular provider, you can set up a Wi-Fi hotspot anywhere and share internet access with a laptop or other mobile device. To set up/enable the Personal Wi-Fi Hot Spot built into your Apple iOS Smart Device, follow the instructions
below:

First, tap on the Settings icon on your home screen.
















Then, in the Settings menu, tap Personal Hotspot.


















In most cases when the Personal Hotspot screen appears it will already have the Personal Hotspot slider set to enabled (the button will be green); this is because the Personal Hotspot enables as the screen is opened. If however, the slider is not
enabled, tap it to turn it on.







Once the Personal Hotspot slider is enabled, it will be green and you may proceed to the next step.






If your Wi-Fi on your phone is not enabled, enabling the Personal Hotspot will prompt you if you wish to enable Wi-Fi; tap Turn on Wi-Fi to enable the connection so that will be able to connect your laptop or computer to this mobile Hot Spot that you have enabled on your phone.







The Wi-Fi Password will be listed below the slider.

On your laptop or desktop computer, you will be able to
connect to the Personal Hotspot using the instructions below(also appearing in the screenshot to the left). Please note, the name of your device may be something other than “Personal iPhone” depending on your particular setup:

TO CONNECT USING WI-FI
1. Choose “Personal iPhone” from the Wi-Fi settings on your computer or other device.
2. Enter the password when prompted.








Cell Phone Hotspots: Android

To set up/enable the Mobile Hotspot built into your Google/Samsung/LG or other Android Smart Device, follow the instructions below:

First, tap on the Settings icon on your home screen.











Then, in the Settings menu, tap the Connections icon.











Once in the Connections menu, scroll near the bottom of the
menu and tap Mobile Hotspot and Tethering.

















From the Mobile Hotspot and Tethering menu, tap the Mobile Hotspot slider to enable this feature.







The Mobile Hotspot slider will turn blue once enabled.








With the Mobile Hotspot enabled, the instructions to connect to the hotspot will appear in the Mobile Hotspot menu as shown on the left:

Connecting with password
1. Turn on Wi-Fi on the device (PC, laptop etc.) you want to use internet.
2. Find My Hotspot in Wi-Fi network list.
3. Connect to My Hotspot by entering hotspotpassword as
the password.
4. Enjoy the Internet using your personal Mobile Hotspot.

As an alternative, there are also instructions using a QR code to connect, if that feature is enabled, though this is optional.

Below the instructions to connect, the password for the hotspot and Wi-Fi sharing (disabled by default) will also be listed.

At the bottom of this screen, a list of devices that are connected to the hotspot will be listed, though this will likely be empty (as shown) if this is your first time enabling this feature.






This and the next step are optional and are an alternative for the first steps of this process. You may also open the Mobile Hotspot menu from the icon on the Swipe Down menu if available.












From here, you may tap the Tethering or Mobile HotSpot item to set it up.
