Project Number Two

Grade Policy

 

 

 

GRADE WEIGHT

 

Your project grade will be equal in weight to two test/quiz grades.  The Project #2 grade will be used in the calculation of your grade for the 6th six-week grade period of the academic year.  The percentage of the six-week grading period grade that Project #2 will represent will depend upon the number of tests and or quizzes during that time.  For example, if there are 4 tests and/or quizzes within the six weeks, then Project #2 will be 1/3 of your grade.  If there are 6 tests and/or quizzes within the six weeks, then Project #2 will be ¼ of your grade.

 

GRADE

 

Your project grade will be derived from your work as follows:

 

            Report:             2/3

            Presentation:     1/3

 

A letter grade will be assigned (e.g., A+, A, A-) to the report and presentation parts and the corresponding numerical representation used in calculation of your Project #2 grade.  Letter/numerical grade assignment will be as follows:

 

            A+ à  99

            A à    95

            A- à   91
            B+ à  88
            B à     85

            B- à   81

 

Etc.

 

For example, if you receive an A- on your written report and an A+ on your presentation, your project grade will be:

 

 

A grade of 93.7 would then be recorded and weighted as two test/quiz grades.
