Former Texas community college educator, now a high school science teacher in Bangkok...
Grading policy:
Major projects / labs & exams = 50%
Assignments / quizzes & informal projects & labs = 50%
Many assignment's grades will not be recorded, these are considered 'practice' formative assessments.
Late work loses 10% per day, 20% per weekend, unless student is absent or has special consideration. If student is absent, they need to keep an eye on their email as I will send notifications and assignments in their absence.
