6. EVALUATION PROCEDURES:
The final course grade will include the following:
Exams* 40% of final grade
Assignments** 35% of final grade
Final Project 25% of final grade
*Exams (40%) will consist of a combination of Matching and Multiple Choice.  One to two exams will be given during the semester.  A Final Project (the student’s Web Page) will be required at the end of the semester.  The students will present their Web Page  using a Web Browser plus turn in a hard copy of their pages and code.  A student may make up one exam.  If extenuating circumstances exist or prior arrangements are made with the instructor, additional make up may be allowed.  Quizzes may not be made up.
**Assignments will be assigned, collected, and graded by the instructor during each unit of study.  Due dates for each assignment will be clearly stated.  Students are expected to demonstrate the assignment plus hand in a hard copy including their code.  Assignments received after the due date, will receive half credit.
Grading Scale
Raw Score Range 		Letter Grade
90 to 100 A
80 to 89 B
70 to 79 C
60 to 69 D
0 to 59 F
Special Remarks:

1.

Attendance:  College policy states that students may be dropped from enrollment when absent 20% of the scheduled class meetings.  If enrolled from the beginning of the term, 15 hours will usually constitute 20% of a four-credit semester course which meets five hours per week.  Reinstatement procedures are described in the PCC catalog.

2.

Tardy Policy:  A student who is late three times (enters classroom after the instructor has taken roll) will be charged with one full absence unless the student can provide valid reasons for one or more of these tardies.

3.

Assignments/Missed Exams: It is the student's responsibility, whether present or absent, to obtain all material presented and to complete all course assignments. If prior arrangements are made or extenuating circumstances exist, makeup of tests may be allowed. Late homework papers will not be accepted unless those same extenuating circumstances exist.
