My grading practices
In this class you may review your grade at any time. Visit the “Grades” in Canvas to keep track of your grades. I grade several times per week and post grades and comments on the online Canvas gradebook. It is my policy to grade things quickly and ensure you know exactly where you stand in the course.
How your work is evaluated
How your work is evaluated
Each week you will complete two "Lessons", two "Outbreaks", two Quizzes and participate in one class discussion. Your grade will be based on completing these assignments as well as your performance on a midterm and a final exam.
Tips for success
Tips for success
Do a little bit every day! Learning science is a lot like learning to play a musical instrument, or play a sport! Practicing every day by completing lessons, reviewing your notes, and talking with me and other students in discussions is the easiest and most effective way to learn the concepts that we cover in this class, and retain the information so that you will be a safe food handler and effective food safety manager after the course is over.
How Grades are Assigned
How Grades are Assigned
90-100 points = A
80-89 points = B
70-79 points = C
60-69 points = D
Below 60 = F
If taking Pass/No Pass you need at least 70% of the total class points and complete the midterm exam and the final exam to pass the class.
An “F” grade indicates that a student attended, participated and completed the course but failed to master the course curriculum. It's essential that you master the course curriculum before you being preparing food professionally!
An “FW” grade indicates the student stopped attending a course after the “last day to withdraw” deadline and subsequently did not submit any work or participate in any exams. Please check with your counselor and financial aid advisor for possible implications of the FW grade on residency and financial aid status.
