Unexcused absences take away learning opportunities from other students who may have wanted to attend but couldn&#8217;t due to a full session. Be sure to cancel in advance using the procedure outlined above.<br>Additionally, students who are subject to ELC assignments will have 1 point deducted from their ELC assignment points for each unexcused absence starting from the second occurrence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Rules for Tardiness and Early Departure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Arriving more than 5 minutes late or leaving 5 minutes early will be counted as an absence, and no ELC assignment points will be awarded.<\/strong> For online sessions, if there are connection issues such as problems with Wi-Fi, Zoom settings, or microphone\/headphone connectivity that cause a delay in participation or result in being unable to reconnect, it will also be treated as tardiness or early departure. Be sure to prepare properly in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-medium-gray-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-medium-gray-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Please Avoid Cancellations as Much as Possible<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Please make sure to confirm your schedule thoroughly before making a reservation. Avoid making reservations just to &#8220;hold a spot&#8221; without serious intention to attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/reserva.be\/tufselc\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/reserva.be\/tufselc\">TUFS ELC Online Reservation Site<\/a> has a limit on the number of reservations that can be accepted per month. Once this limit is exceeded, further reservations will be stopped. If &#8220;placeholder&#8221; reservations are frequently canceled and new ones are taken in place, the number of reservations will increase rapidly, potentially exceeding the limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Please be considerate of other students<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, during busy periods, there are students who are unable to make a reservation because sessions are fully booked. &#8220;Placeholder&#8221; reservations deprive these students of their opportunity to learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the same reasons, please avoid canceling reservations on the day of the session. With cancellations close to the session time, even if a spot becomes available, there may not be enough time to schedule another student.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We ask for your cooperation so that everyone can enjoy using the ELC smoothly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-medium-gray-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-medium-gray-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"#top\">Back to top<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here are the reservation methods and rules for Speaking Session, ELC Seminar, Writing Support Desk, and Englis [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":90,"featured_media":0,"parent":1369,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_locale":"en_US","_original_post":"https:\/\/wp.tufs.ac.jp\/elc\/?page_id=948","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1387","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","en-US"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.tufs.ac.jp\/elc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1387","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.tufs.ac.jp\/elc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.tufs.ac.jp\/elc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.tufs.ac.jp\/elc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/90"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.tufs.ac.jp\/elc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1387"}],"version-history":[{"count":24,"href":"https:\/\/wp.tufs.ac.jp\/elc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1387\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3867,"href":"https:\/\/wp.tufs.ac.jp\/elc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1387\/revisions\/3867"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.tufs.ac.jp\/elc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1369"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.tufs.ac.jp\/elc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1387"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
