Grading Policies

Lessons

In this class there are six Lessons, worth 100 points each.

Each Lesson has four activities:
     1. Blog – worth 30 points
     2. Behavior Analysis – worth 30 points
    3. Quiz – worth 30 points
     4. Reflection – worth 10 points
Overall grade = 100 points per Lesson

In the grade book, I’ll post your grade on each of the four activities.  
When the Lesson is complete, I’ll post your overall grade for the Lesson.  

 
Midterm Project 

Instead of a midterm exam, this class has a midterm project. 
It is worth a maximum of 100 points.

 
Final Project

Also, instead of a final exam, this class has a final project. 
It is worth a maximum of 100 points.

Total Grade

In total, you may earn a maximum of 800 points in this class.

     1. Six Lessons, worth 100 points each = 600 points
     2. Midterm project = 100 points
     3. Final project = 100 points

Computing Your Average

To compute your average, add together: 

     1. The 6 Lesson grades (overall grade for each Lesson)
     2. Your midterm project grade
     3. Your final project grade

Divide the total by 8.

Example:
If your total is 675, divide by 8 (675/8) = 84.4
Your average is 84.4%

Letter Grades

I use the traditional method of assigning letter grades.
A = 90 or above
B = 80-89
C = 70-79
D = 60-69
F = 59 or below
