Exercise Evaluation

As discussed in class, Exercises will be evaluated as follows.

1) Each Exercise will be evaluation out of
1. Adequate completion of an exercise will result in an evaluation of 1; inadequate completion of an exercise will result in an evaluation of 0. At Maya and I's discretion, you may receive an evaluation of 1/2 if you adequately complete some but not all of an Exercise.

2) Exceptional completion of an Exercise will result in a bonus evaluation mark. The magnitude of these bonus marks will be at Maya and I's discretion. It is expected that bonus marks will be rare.

3) Exercises will be weighted relative to one another at the end of the term, to reflect their relative time commitment. For example, an Exercise that takes most students 4 hours will be assigned approximately 4 times as much weight as an Exercise that takes most students 1 hour.

4) Exercises constitute 20% of your final grade. With sufficient diligence, all students are capable of being awarded a perfect aggregate evaluation on the Exercises. Bonus marks will not used to elevate your aggregate evaluation beyond perfect.

5) Exercises may not be submitted late for any reason other than a documented illness.

5) You will not receive regular feedback on your Exercise submissions. An anonymous list of evaluations to date will be posted to the blog before the final deadline to withdraw from the course without academic penalty.
