Participation points update; grade status estimate

This morning, I updated your participation points from mini-quizzes B, C and D.

SO... there is now a total of 64 points possible to have earned:

  1. 16 participation points, 4 from each of the mini-quizzes A-D;
  2. 48 points from Exam 1.
So if you want to estimate your grade status as of this week, you can add up your participation points and exam score, then divide that by 64. That result will be your current percentage. Then go and look at the grade scale on the syllabus handout page.

I normally do not give out letter grades on exams, but if I were to give out semester grades this week, that is how you'd estimate it.
