There will be three kinds of grading during the term: grading for completion, intermediate grading, and grading according to rubric.
- Grading for Completion. The first kind of grading is just based on “did you do it or not do it?” If you did it, you get full credit. If you didn’t, you get no credit. Typically, this will be according to word count or meeting some minimum criteria of some kind. The Reading Annotations, Learning Module activities, participation during small group meetings as well as full class meetings, and some of the Process Documents fall under this type of grading.
- Intermediate Grading. This second kind of grading is mostly like the previous, but there may be some additional criteria to meet. For instance, you may be asked to address three different questions in a prompt and while you technically do this maybe one of the questions only gets one sentence in response that does not go into much depth. If you did it but did not go into much depth, you get a “1.” If you did it and did go into a lot of depth, you get a “2.” If you did not meet the minimum criteria, you get a “0.” QSRs and some of the Process Documents fall under this kind of grading.
- Grading According to Rubric. All the major writing assignments will be accompanied by a rubric. In the rubric there will be very specific criteria that will be subjectively evaluated by me.
