Explanation
- Grades
for classroom performance
Classroom
performance shall
receive two grades. One grade shall indicate performance while you are
present
in the course. This grade shall reflect your preparedness, activity in
the course, willingness to take part. The second grade shall
reflect
unexcused absence and shall be entered on the spread sheet as a zero.
Since
the dates of absence shall be recorded on the computer, the amount of
time
averaged at "zero" shall be directly averaged with your classroom
performance
grade.
Example: 15 week semester
—Unexcused absences =12 (4 full weeks
of a 3 day per week course).
—Classroom performance grade for time
in class ==B (85) [=11 X 85 = 935]
