Course Grades:

Instead of trying to earn as many points as possible in a semester, now the goal for students is to earn a 3 or 4 on each of the learning targets. Since you will have the opportunity to retake any assessment/project you do not do well on (after completing additional work), you might have several assessment/project scores to look at for each learning target. For each individual learning target, your final score for that target (a 4, 3, 2, 1, or 0) will be based on how well you’ve done on the various assessment attempts you’ve made on that learning target with a focus on what score was most consistently shown. Below is an explanation of how your final course grade will be determined.

COURSE GRADE CRITERIA

A ---Student has earned a 4 in at least six of the learning targets and has not earned anything lower than a 3 in the other learning targets.

B ---Student has earned at least a 3 in all the learning targets.

C ---Student has earned at least a 3 in six of the learning targets and has not earned anything lower than a 2 in the other learning targets.

D ---Student has earned at least a 2 in six of the learning targets.

F ---Student has earned a 1 in four or more learning targets.
