GRADING SYSTEM
A Total Points system in grading will be used in this course. Each assignment, test, quiz, or project will be assigned a certain number of points. Assignments will earn less points than exams. The student's final grade is determined by comparing the total points earned to the total points available. This can be expressed as a percentage (e.g., total points earned divided by total points available, then multiplied by 100), which will then be converted into a letter grade according to the grading scale below:
GRADING SCALE: Percentages calculated will receive the following letter grade:
90 – 100 A
80 – 89 B
70 – 79 C
60 – 69 D
0 – 59 F
LATE WORK POLICY: Any assignment turned in after the due date will receive a 25% reduction in grade.
