Cauliflower versus broccoli
This is semester two, 203 class. Last semester, this class did very well for grades. If you came to class every time, I am sure you got a high grade. Let’s look at the grading system again. It is a little different this semester:
Attendance
(20%): come to class. Every hour you do NOT come to class, I deduct (minus 1%).
If you miss a class, that is minus 2%. 18%.
Participation
(10%): be happy in class and write full sentences, etc. Talk with feeling.
Monotone is no good.
30%
