Grades

Final grades (now with fin ex, fin ave and fin grd columns on the left):

ros1190_final_post (excel format) ros1190_final_post(pdf)

Most of the column labels should be self explanatory: P2 is the graph post and C is the commentary on someone else’s graph post.

I have created a file with the midterm grade (in 2 formats, MS Excel and PDF) :

ros1190_midterm  ros1190_midterm

I am following the syllabus as closely as possible. To come up with the the midterm grade, I have used your

  1. quiz average (will count 10% at end of semester, since we have completed 60% of the semester, it is weighted .6*.1=.06)
  2. exam 1 (20% overall), so gets weight .2
  3. class participation (25% overall, you have done 3 out of the 5 anticipated assignments, so gets weight .25 * .6=.15)

In practical terms, this means I take (.06*Q+.2*E1+.15*CP)/.41

The CP grade is based on P1 (your first post), D1 (your first exam discussion), P2 (your second post). Each was graded based on a total of 5 points.

There are 2 calculations based on whether you get credit for the corrections of exam 1 or not. For the no corrections, it is I have indicated. For the corrections, I took what you missed, divided by 2, multiplied by .2 and divided by .41 and then added this to your no corrections midterm average: Missed/2*.2/.41+ no corrections average=Missed/4.1+ no corrections average

For the MT grades, I went by a very crude

  • If ave <40, then U
  • If 40<ave< 60, then BL
  • If ave > 60, then P
