General Class Participation including Attendance 15 %

    Your grade for this course is entirely performance-driven based on the quality of your work and participation and in this course. This means that you are not in direct competition with each other for grades. Instead, you are in competition with yourself in terms of how well you learn and apply the material from the course.

  I use a 10 point grading scale with + if your percentage ends in 7, 8, or 9 and - if your grade percentage ends in 0 or 1; So 88= B+, 91= A-.
