Grading Policy

Course grades will be determined from student performance on exams, quizzes and computer labs. There will be weekly 10 minute quizzes and four exams: three 50 minute in-class exams and a final exam. The two lowest quiz scores will be dropped and no make-up quizzes will be given. The three in-class exams, which are indicated on the syllabus above, will be given during the hour normally used for lecture. Each of these exams will test only the material covered since the previous exam. In contrast the final exam, which will be given during the week of final exams, will be a cummulative exam. Reason for missing an exam must be properly documented and any missed exam must be made up within a week. The grades for the course are determined as follows:

 Exam 1  15%
 Exam 2  15%
 Exam 3  15%
 Final Exam  25%
 Quizzes  15%
 Labs  15%
----------- ------
 Total  100%

A straight scale will be used so that A's, B's C's and D's correspond to the percent ranges 100-90, 90-80, 80-70 and 70-60 respectively. Plus grading will be used. For example:

90-100:A 86-89: B+ 80-85: B 76-79: C+
70-75: C 66-69: D+ 60-65: D 0-59: F

Homework will be assigned on a daily basis and should be done before the next class. Althought not collected, these homework assignments are an essential part of the course for learning and understanding the course material. They should be thought of as required for success in the course.

Attendance and Academic Honesty

Attendance at every class (lectures, recitations and labs) meeting is important and expected. Students missing more than 10% of the class meetings (4 days) can have their grade lowered. Cheating and plagiarism will not be tolerated. Violations of this policy will be dealt with according to University guidelines.
