Your course grade will be based on three different class measurements, programming assignments, a midterm test and a final exam.
Programming Assignments | 45% |
Math/Logic Test | 10% |
Midterm Test | 20% |
Final Exam | 25% |
Total | 100% |
Your final grade in the class will be based on this table:
total >= 90% A 90% > total >= 80% B 80% > total >= 70% C 70% > total >= 50% D 50% > total >= 45% F 45% > total Y
Your attendance in class will help you learn the material covered. Some times I will take attendance. If you expect to miss two or more consecutive classes, please contact me by phone or message.
At the end of the semester you will have an opportunity to specify the lowest grade that you want. If you earn a lower final grade, I will submit a Y grade for you. This is not a good option for a variety of reasons. Please drop the class if you can instead of exercising this option.
The "Y" grade discription on page 32 of the 2004/2005 college reads as follows:
Y Special Withdrawal: All students are informed of the possible negative effects of the Y grade. The decision to grant the special withdrawal is based on what is best for the student.
This is a programming class. The lab assignments will involve writing, entering, assembling, running, testing, and debugging programs. The programs in this class will need to be written and checked using an assembler on a Intel Pentium, AMD Athlon or an AMD Opteron compatable processor.
The lab work will need to be done independently. Labs may be cross checked using an analysis program.
Early in the class there will be a test on:
There will be one midterm exam. This will cover the first part of the class.
The only other exam in the class will be a comprehensive final exam. It will include a sampling from all of the material covered in the class.
There may be team work assignments in this class. This could involve lab work, in class activities, and tests. If team work is done, the same score will be assigned to the entire team for that section.
Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Students with disabilities requiring special accommodations are strongly encouraged to notify the instructor at the beginning of the semester so that appropriate verification and identification of reasonable accommodations may be made in a timely manner.
