Grading Policies
-
Quarter grades are determined as follows:
Exams: 70%
Laboratory: 15%
Homework: 10%
Class Participation: 5%
Homework and Labs are individually graded as follows:
(5) Outstanding - The student has exceeded the demands of the task. Work contains additional, unexpected or outstanding features.
(4) Good Work - meets all requirements of the assignment, shows reasonable care and effort but offers no extension.
(3) Fair Work - lowest range of acceptability; some deficiencies; not all aspects of the task have been fulfilled; brief and sketchy; appears rushed or marginal in effort.
(2) Unsatisfactory - important aspects of the task are neglected or unfinished; appears rushed or careless; overall impression is poor.
(1) Unacceptable
(0.5) Work was copied or given to someone else to copy (I will not investigate who did the original work - either way, it is dishonest).
(0) Work not turned in
