Fall 2022 Syllabus
Grading and Extra Credit
Grading
Your final grade will be based upon completing the following learning activities, assignments, and in-class activities. View the assignment's rubric for the evaluation criteria.
Extra Credit:
Throughout the semester, I typically provide several extra credit opportunities. These can include attending campus events, in-person and virtual, viewing additional content, or participating in a thought exercise. Extra credit is often hidden in lectures and assignments as well. These will be announced and are not yet scheduled.

Assignment Rewards and Badges
Some assignments come with a prize, such as dropping an assignment grade and/or a badge. The badge does not do anything other than to note you are an all-star student at that particular task, assignment, or topic. However, it is important to give recognition when it is due. The student with the most badges by 11/28/2022 will be able to opt out of the final exam. Badges can be earned only once. So once you earn the 100% Club badge, you cannot earn it again. However, you can earn multiple badges for a single task
