成績評価の方法 及び基準 |
Average score of 15 in-class Presentations of 100 points = 100% final grade Each week’s Presentation: Vote (15 points), Notes (10 points), Presentation (75 points) = 100 points No Vote = 85 points max No Notes = 0 points No Presentation = 0 points 25% of each week’s Presentation grade is based on your own Vote and Notes. 75% of each week’s Presentation grade is based on the team grade, so support your team. Teams are selected randomly each week. Votes, Notes, and Presentations will strictly follow the syllabus schedule. They each have different guidelines and schedules, so read these carefully. Votes, Notes, and Presentations will be graded according to an E-I-G-O rubric. Feedback will be given in-class (face-to-face) and through Canvas (online). Go to the class homepage on Canvas. Then click onto “Assignments.” For each of these, click onto “Grade” and then “Rubric.” 課題,評定, ルーブリック. Presentations rely on your Notes. In other words, you must successfully submit your Notes before class. Failure to properly submit your Notes means automatic failure on Presentations. Late to class = partial participation = decrease of half points (-50%) or more, depending on how late you are and the activity that week. Plagiarism will not be tolerated. If you cheat on any assignment, you and those collaborating with you to cheat will receive 0% and may fail this course. いかなる盗作、著作権の侵害も認めません。他人から写したいかなる課題、ノートを提出した場合、またはそのような不正行為に加担した場合には0%とし、単位取得が不可能になる場合もあります。 |
