Final Post Grade:
Your final grade for posts (which is part of your Out of Class participation grade) will be determined by:
i. whether or not you have completed 2 of each type of posts and then 1 post on anything (even if not the readings) for a total of at least 9 posts.
ii. the average of all your post-check-in grades.
Post-Check Ins:
Periodically I will check in on your posts, and I will grade a post of your selection. Your “Post Check-In” grade will be determined:
i. whether or not you are up-to-date in all your posting [50 percent]
ii. the grade you receive for the post you select to be graded during that check in. (You select a post to be graded, by checking the category box saying “post check-in”) [50 percent]
Graded Posts
Your selected post will be graded based on:
i. whether or not it adheres to the guideline for that particular type of post
