CAOLA Grades • Teachers will log in and check CAOLA progress at the end of class on assigned benchmark days (usually the last 10 minutes of class) • Staying on pace is now worth 10% of your final grade in your CAOLA class
CAOLA Grades • At the conclusion of your online class, you will receive a grade from the online teacher based on your knowledge of content; however, this is worth 90% of your final grade for the marking period. • The other 10% comes from the teacher who monitors your CAOLA progress each week. This teacher is responsible for keeping track of your progress—namely, did you meet the benchmarks or not throughout the quarter or semester?
