GRADING

Evaluation of assignments will be based upon several criteria: completion of requirements, understanding and application of concepts, neatness and presentation quality, and other specifics particular to individual projects. Assignments will be scored on a point system. At the end of the quarter, the points will be tallied and then converted to a letter grade, based on the following formula:

90-100 A-, A, A+

80-89 B-, B, B+

70-79 C-, C, C+

60-69 D-, D, D+

< 60 F

All work must be “turned in” on the assigned due date at the assigned time. Projects will usually be reviewed in-class, and work must be displayed and/or presented to receive full credit. No late assignments will be accepted.

An “Incomplete” grade may be awarded only in cases where extenuating circumstances have prevented the students from completing no more than one of the projects or tests for the quarter. To be eligible for an “I” grade, the student must have prior approval of the instructor. Questions about grades, including an approximation of the letter grade earned to date, will be welcomed at any time during the quarter.
