  7. Grading System • There will be 5 assignments, 10 class activities, 2 exams and 1 Project/Presentation. • Assignment = 10 points x 5 = 50 points • Class Activities = 2 points X 10 = 20 points • Exams = 10 points x 2 = 20 points • Final Project/Presentation = 10 points • Total = 100 points • Optional extra credit assignment at end of semester to allow anyone missing an exam or assignment submission = 10 points. I expect the student to request the optional assignment • Each assignment will be due in 1 week. • Assignments late by one class period will result in deduction of 2 points. Bala Kappagantula

  8. Final Grading Scale • 90 – 100 = A • 80 – 89 = B • 70 – 79 = C • 60 – 69 = D • 59 – Below = F Bala Kappagantula

  9. Policies Academic Dishonesty Policy: • Any one handing in someone else’s work as their work will receive a credit of ‘0’ points for the assignment. The supplier of the original work will also receive ‘0’ points for the assignment. It would be better to miss a couple of assignments rather than hand in someone else’s assignment. Attendance Policy: • Please go through HCC attendance policy particularly students receiving financial aid. Attendance will be taken during each class & students are encouraged to attend every class. Bala Kappagantula

  10. Miscellaneous Instructional Methods (Including Examination Policies): • I prefer to go with visual presentations & hands on training on MS Office tools. Cell Phone Etiquette: • Ideally, you would turn the phone off as you enter the classroom. Immediately turn off your ringing cell phone. Assignments: • The assignments will be listed on my Faculty website (http://www.hccfl.edu/facultyinfo/bkappagantula). Bala Kappagantula
