Grading Procedure
:
There will be four 50-minute tests, a cumulative final exam, and 12 short
quizzes. The final grade for the course will be determined as follows:
Quizzes 20%
3 Highest Tests 50%
Final Exam 30%
Grading Scale: A: 89-100 B: 78-89 C: 67-78 D: 56-66 F: 0-56
Test and Quiz Policy: The lowest of your four 50-minute test scores will be dropped.
Your two lowest quiz scores will be dropped. There will be no make-up tests or quizzes.
If one test is missed, this will be considered as the test with the lowest score, and will be
the test that is dropped. A second (or more) missed test will be given a grade of F.
Missed quizzes get a grade of 0 out of 10, up to two of which will be dropped
Homework: Homework will be assigned during each class meeting. It is to be completed by the next class meeting. Although homework will not be collected or graded, it is ESSENTIAL to your success in the course that
you do the homework regularly, and on time. Part of each homework assignment is to read the corresponding material in the text.
Other: It is strongly recommended that you allow at least six hours each week, outside of class, for homework and study (more would be better).
