EVALUATION METHODS/GRADING PROCEDURES:


  1. The student will earn a grade for all daily work assignments. This grade will count for 25% of the final grade.

  2. The student will earn a grade for all test and quiz scores. This grade will count for 40% of the final grade.

  3. The student will earn a grade for laboratory performance. This grade will count for 25% of the final grade.

  4. The student will earn a grade for the Final Test. This grade will count for 10% of the final grade.

In the Laboratory, the student is required to complete daily time sheets explaining what was accomplished during each lab period. Points will be earned for each day’s performance. No points are earned if the student is absent.


Laboratory points will be lost for:

Tardiness Poor quality work

Poor work habits Improper use of tools

Unsafe work habits Improper care of tools

Failure to follow directions Poor Attitude

Poor spelling


While in the laboratory, the student is also required to maintain a Laboratory Task List. The task list must be signed off by the instructor as the student completes each task.
Grades will be calculated using the following numerical scale:

95-100 = 4.0 82 = 2.8 70 = 1.6

93-94 = 3.9 81 =2.7 69 = 1.5

92 = 3.8 80 = 2.6 68 = 1.4

91 = 3.7 79 = 2.5 67 = 1.3

90 = 3.6 78 = 2.4 66 = 1.2

89 = 3.5 77 = 2.3 65 = 1.1

88 = 3.4 76 = 2.2 64 = 1.0

87 = 3.3 75 = 2.1 63 = 0.9

86 = 3.2 74 = 2.0 62 = 0.8

85 = 3.1 73 = 1.9 61 = 0.7

84 = 3.0 72 = 1.8 60 = 0.7



83 = 2.9 71 = 1.7 0-59 = 0.0
