Grades will be determined as follows:
Daily Assignments:
There will be an assignment given each instructional day worth 4 points. This portion of your grade will be worth 30% of your final grade. To earn the full 5 points each day, you will be required to complete the five practice problems, turn them in on the due date, and show your work. Points will be deducted for turning work in late, not showing work and not doing your own work.
Quizzes:
Quizzes will be given on a regular basis to check understanding throughout each chapter. Quizzes are worth 50 points each and will be figured into the test scores.
Tests:
Chapter tests will be given at the end of each chapter. Tests will be worth 100 points each. Test and quiz scores will account for 40% of your final grade.
Aleks:
Weekly grades will be assigned to your Aleks work. Each week, a score for completing either 1 1/2 hours or 12 topics will be given. Your Aleks grade will account for 30% of your final grade.
Extra Credit:
Extra credit opportunity in my class is given on rare occassions. It must be earned through academic means of working above and beyond the required minimum. I will give the rules for this when opportunity arises.
