Instructor: Prof. A. E. SOUAIAIA In all my courses, I make all efforts to ensure that each student's work is fairly and without bias evaluated and assigned grades based on valid academic criteria and based on the student’s individual performances.. Fairness to students also implies reasonably consistent grading among courses of the same level, other things being equal. For this course, the grades distribution—based on the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences historical data—will be roughly as follows:
The final grades will reflect the grading system as used in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences which is summarized below: Your tests and quizzes’ grades will be recorded in the form of a percentile (%), a formula will be put in place to calculate the averages and the ratios for each category, then compute your accumulative grade also in. In order to figure out what your letter grade is at any given time, you may rely on the following table to make estimation. Remember that grades as shown on webCT (or whatever other medium used in conjunction with the course) will be partial grades, but you should be able to estimate how well you are doing based on the percentage of tests and quizzes already taken and recorded. The total at any point can be estimated by considering the highest % shown on the class’ statistics page.
Should you notice a mistake or discrepancy, please inform the Teaching Assistant assigned to your section or talk to me as soon as possible and certainly before the deadline for grade submission to the Registrar.
