Student Evaluation (On Campus):

In-class quizzes and final exam 95%

Attendance 05%

Student Evaluation (Distance):

In-class quizzes and final exam 100%

Letter grades for the course will be assigned by the following scale unless the overall class performance indicates that the following scale is too high, in which case the scale may be lowered.

A) 90 - 100% / B) 80 - <90% / C) 70 - <80% / D) 60 - <70% / F) 0 - <60%

Please note that 89.99 is still a B.

In-Class Quizzes and Final Exam:

Seven in-class quizzes will be given. They are equally weighted. Make-up quizzes will not be given. All quizzes will start promptly at 12:30 pm. You cannot take a quiz early or late. At the end of the semester, there will be a final exam which is weighted four times each quiz. The lowest three scores will be dropped. The final grade will be calculated based on the highest eight scores.

The quizzes and exam are closed-book and closed-note. Students are allowed to use one 8.5x11" cheat sheet.

Attendance:

You are expected to attend all of the sessions. Missing five classes starts affecting your 5% attendance grade.
