My Grading Policies
In general, grades for all the courses I teach will be
assigned as follows:
A indicates
that the work is markedly superior and is without major problems.
It is an honors grade denoting that all the goals for the assignment
or course have been achieved with distinction at a level exceeding
standard expectations.
B indicates
that the work has met all of the requirements of the assignment
or course at a level that is consistently above average, and
the student has achieved most of the goals.
C indicates satisfactory work
that is consistently average and that meets the course goals
at a sufficient level to pass, even though there may be some
problems with the work.
D indicates the minimal achievement
in order to earn credit, even though the work is below the standard
required for good academic standing.
F indicates failure to complete
an assignment or course, or work that does not fit into the requirements
of the assignment or course or meet acceptable standards, so
that no credit can be awarded.
