10. Grading • 3 exams = 60% • 20% each of total grade • Administered in the lecture classroom • Quizzes/Homeworks= 40% • Administered in recitation sections • 20% - quizzes • 20% - homework Total =100%

11. Attendance • Lecture attendance is mandatory • Taken irregularly • Recitation attendance is mandatory • Taken regularly

12. Attendance • Lecture attendance is mandatory • Taken irregularly • Recitation attendance is mandatory • Taken regularly You can fail for lack of attendance! • Attendance Policy (“extra credit”) • Carrot • Zero unexcused absences = +3% of total grade • One unexcused absence = no penalty • Stick • For 2nd and each subsequent unexcused absence: -2% points • 7 = 50% deduction of total grade

13. Two Classrooms, One Course • Lecture (twice a week) • Recitation Section (once a week)

14. Two Classrooms, One Course • Lecture (twice a week) • Major themes & principles of method • Reading assignments • Some exercises assigned for homework • Attendance “quizzes” • 3 Exams: 60% of total score

24. Inference-Logic University Studies Program III. INFERENCE-LOGIC (with Statistics or Calculus Options) Upon completion of the inference-logic requirement, students will be able to: (1) draw reasonable inferences from data, observations, and logical premises; (2) evaluate the quality of an argument or solution; and (3) use principles of formal reasoning to solve problems.

INFERENCE-LOGIC (with Statistics or Calculus Options) Upon completion of the inference-logic requirement, students will be able to: (1) draw reasonable inferences from data, observations, and logical premises; (2) evaluate the quality of an argument or solution; and (3) use principles of formal reasoning to solve problems. • To fulfill the inference-logic requirement, complete one of the following: • Any calculus course or • STA 200 Statistics: A Force in Human Judgment, PLUS • PHI 120 Introductory Logic, or PHI 320 Symbolic Logic I

26. Argument Diagram Inference-Logic General Requirement University Studies Program (Fall 2009) • All UK students must fulfill the inference-logic requirement. • If you are enrolled in classes, then you are a UK student. • You are enrolled in this class. • Therefore you are a UK student. • Hence you must fulfill the inference-logic requirement. “All” = universal statement “You” = member of the logical class - UK students
