Grading:
Formative 15% This will be determined by the scores of the formative assessments.
Summative 85% This will be the
median of the scores of the summative assessments. Each summative
assessment will be marked with a percentage score. With permission of
the teacher, additional chances on summative assessments will be made
available. Students will receive the most recent, most consistent mark
for any such multiple assessments.
There are three types of assessment activities that we will do for class: diagnostic, formative, and summative.
diagnostic:
this is to find out what you already know, see where you are now,
explore strengths and weaknesses, and to check for understanding.
formative:
this is to find out how well you know and can do class learning
objectives. This is still considered in the practice and progress phase.
summative:
this is the formal assessment for your grade. This is after you have
received instruction and learning activities, had your progress
assessed with opportunities for reteaching, and now you demonstrate
what you know and what you can do.
Your grade for this class is intended to reflect what you know and can do, so it is mostly determined by your summative assessments.
