Grading
For each assignment, I will explain my expectations and grading rubric as it relates to the assessed competencies. I will also provide a great deal of written and oral feedback about your work. Grades will be based primarily on the finished products, but also on demonstration of incorporation of comments, growth in understanding of the material, and effort.
