How You Will Be Evaluated

There are eight Modules in our course. Each Module will have the same general set-up. Your grade is a function of the following:

Written Assignments: 35%: When you submit your work, I will grade it ASAP. You will see your grade, but no detailed comments. When the Module ends, I will post a document that will detail what I was looking for. Written Assignments tend to be graded tougher than the Web assignments.

Web Assignments: 25%: When you submit your work, I will grade it ASAP. You will see your grade, but no detailed comments. When the Module ends, I will post a document that will detail what I was looking for.

Exams: 20%: I will grade your Exam when you submit it. You will not see a full summary of the Exam until after the Module ends.

Final Exam: 20%: I will grade this exam after the due date.

At the end of the Semester, I will review your Discussion posts. I will assess the quality and quantity of the posts and assign a holistic grade. I will then take this grade and adjust your average on the above components. There are three outcomes possible for the Discussion component:

Outstanding: I will raise your overall average by 4 points.

Satisfactory: I will raise your overall average by 2 points.

Unsatisfactory: I will lower your overall average by 4 points.
