Grading: The total score for the course is computed with the following weights.
Online quizzes | 40% | Online homework | 15% |
Final Exam | 30% | Discussion worksheets | 10% |
In-lecture iClickers | 5% |
Retake Quizzes: Optional retake quizzes are available in the week following each first-chance quiz. If you choose to take the retake quiz and you score higher than the first chance, then your score will be (first-chance-score*1/3 + retake-score*2/3). If you score lower on the retake, then you keep your first-chance-score, so the retake quiz cannot decrease your score. If you do not take the first-chance-quiz, then your score will be 2/3 of the retake score.
