There is a fundamental problem with our students. The problem is that they are not us. Prof. Daniel Schwartz, University of Washington 7.Performance evaluation7.1.[U] First quarterMost often, the first quarter of student’s research work in the lab is a “testing” quarter. The student tries to figure out whether the lab meets his/her educational needs, and the advisors try to figure out whether it makes sense to retain the student in the lab for future projects. Many students do not have the attitude or ability that fit the needs of the research lab. As a general policy, we try to part painlessly with non-performing students after one unsuccessful quarter. They are not allowed to stay in the lab and the recommendation letter for such a student would not be a good one, but there are no other penalties. More details on leaving the lab are in the Section 7.2.[U] Feedback to studentsStudents will receive a regular grade, from 0 to 10. The grade of 5.0 is the expected grade of excellence. The 0 to 4 grades are linearly translated to their transcript grade. Higher grades determine winners of SEAL scholarship and various rewards. All undergraduate students are required to submit a weekly progress report to their respective group leaders. Their performance will be evaluated, and scored on a scale of 0 to10. Weekly scores should be documented by the group leaders in weekly TPS reports. The average weekly score for the quarter will become the overall performance score for the student. Students will have the option of dropping the two lowest weekly scores at the end of the quarter before the overall score is calculated. The overall performance score will be used as the basis for awarding EE 499 grades among other things. An overall performance score in the range of 0.0 to 3.9 will earn the student an equivalent grade for EE 499 credits. Students with a score of 4.0 or above will be awarded a grade of 4.0 for EE 499 credits. That is, a student with an overall performance score of 3.6 will be awarded 3.6 as his/her EE 499 grade, while a student with a score of 6.5 will be awarded 4.0 as his/her grade. An overall score of at least 5.0 is the expected score. An overall performance score of at least 6.0 will be required for a student to be eligible for the SEAL scholarship. Any scholarship or academic decision made by SEAL with respect to a student will be partially based on his/her scores. A higher performance score will increase the chances of a student getting a scholarship. Hence it is in the best interest of the student to maintain as high a score as possible.
