Evaluation and Grading
This class
consists of both lectures and labs and there is extensive overlap between
them. students
will be tested over knowledge learned from both.
You will have detailed outlines and study guides for each test. Tests will consist of multiple choice,
matching and written questions. The
final exam will have the last lecture test, with some cumulative questions.
§
Source of Grades: Your grade will
be determined by adding all of the points you earn on lecture and laboratory tests,
there are no out-of-class assignments. All tests will count toward your final
grade. You can earn bonus points (4% of
test value) any time a test score exceeds your average by 2%.
§
Grading Scale A = 90-100% B =
80-89% C = 70-79% D = 60-69%
F = below 60%
§
Weight of individual assignments: Tests are not weighted. They are recorded as points earned, not as a
percent of the total.

Attendance/Participation Policy: Students are expected to attend all
lectures and participate in all labs. If
you miss 2 weeks of worth of class, I can drop you with an F. Please do not sleep in class, you will be
marked absent that day. If you miss a
class it is your responsibility to obtain a copy of missed notes and
handouts. I recommend that you get to
know other people in the class so you could copy notes if necessary.
Make-up/ Late Work Policy: Students are expected to notify me when circumstances
prevent taking a scheduled test.
Ordinarily, only one lecture test may be made up. Make up tests must be arranged with me as
soon as you return to class. Laboratory
exams must be taken on the scheduled day.
If you make-up a laboratory test or more than 1 lecture test, 10% will
be deducted from your grade for that test.
You can not make bonus points on make-up tests.
Web Site: I post
grades on my web site. I also have
copies of the syllabus and outlines. You

Math & Science course syllabi; Biology; Melissa Meador
ACADEMIC HONESTY POLICY: Cheating in any form
- including but not limited to looking at a classmate’s test, unauthorized
possession of exams, or using unauthorized materials during exams -may result
in the student being dropped from the class with an "F" or being
