Homework without a collaboration statement will not be graded.</p><h2 class="subhead">Exams</h2><p>There are two 2-hour quizzes and a final exam. You may bring one 8.5" x 11" sheet with notes handwritten on both sides to each quiz. The final exam is open notes.</p><h2 class="subhead">Grading</h2><p>We compute a percentage score based on your coursework and then assign a letter grade as follows:</p><br /><div class="maintabletemplate"><table class="tablewidth3" summary="See table caption for summary."><caption class="invisible">Grades table.</caption><!-- BEGIN TABLE HEADER (for MIT OCW Table Template 2.51) --><thead><tr><th scope="col">Grades</th><th scope="col">Percentages</th></tr></thead><!-- END TABLE HEADER --><tbody><tr class="gray-row"><td>A</td><td>88.0 - 100%</td></tr><tr><td>B</td><td>78.0 - 87.9%</td></tr><tr class="gray-row"><td>C</td><td>65.0 - 77.9%</td></tr><tr><td>D</td><td>50.0 - 64.9%</td></tr><tr class="gray-row"><td>F</td><td>Below 50%</td></tr><!-- TEN ROWS --></tbody></table><!-- END TABLE --></div><br /><p>Your percentage score is the weighted average of your scores in five areas: homework, recitation, quiz 1, quiz 2, and the final exam. Scores in the five individual areas are determined as follows:</p><br /><div class="maintabletemplate"><table class="tablewidth3" summary="See table caption for summary."><caption class="invisible">Grading table.</caption><!-- BEGIN TABLE HEADER (for MIT OCW Table Template 2.51) --><thead><tr><th scope="col">Activities</th><th scope="col">Percentages</th></tr></thead><!-- END TABLE HEADER --><tbody><tr class="gray-row"><td>Homework</td><td>25%</td></tr><tr><td>Recitation</td><td>20%</td></tr><tr class="gray-row"><td>Quiz 1</td><td>20%</td></tr><tr><td>Quiz 2</td><td>20%</td></tr><tr class="gray-row"><td>Final Exam</td><td>25%</td></tr><!-- TEN ROWS --></tbody></table><!-- END TABLE --></div><br /><p>Homework: We drop your lowest score. We may normalize an entire recitation section upward, if necessary to compensate for variations in grading standards.</p><p>Recitation: Each recitation is worth 0, 1, or 2 points. If you attend for the full period and work constructively with your team, then you get 2 points. If you skip part of recitation or glaringly fail to work constructively with your team, then you get 1 point. If you are absent, you get 0 points. We drop your two lowest recitation scores.</p><p>Quiz 1, Quiz 2, Final Exam: We'll cut 10% off the weight of your weakest exam.</p><p>Despite our best efforts, we sometimes make errors in grading. If you think your work on homework or exam was misgraded, please let us know! Requests for regrades must be submitted within a week after the return date and before the final exam.</p><p>We reserve the right to assign a better grade than the one determined by your scores.</p></div>                                </div>                                                            </div><!--End of courses_inner" div-->                        </div><!-- End of main_content_course div-->                        <div class="clear"></div>                        &nbsp;                    </div><!--End of content_body div-->                </div><!-- End main div -->                <div class="footer">	<div class="footer_logo">		<a href="http://web.mit.edu"><img src="../../../../OcwWeb/images/trans.gif" alt="MIT Logo" width="65" height="35" align="top"				title="MIT Logo" /></a> <a href="../../../../OcwWeb/web/terms/terms/index.htm"><img src="../../../../OcwWeb/images/trans.gif" alt="Copyright MIT" width="100" height="13"				align="top" title="Copyright MIT" /></a>	</div>	<div class="footer_links">		<ul>			<li class="first">				<a href="http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/about/rss/index.htm"><img src="../../../../OcwWeb/images/footer_rss_new.gif" border="0" width="32" height="15" align="absbottom"						alt="RSS Feeds" /></a><a href="http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/about/rss/index.htm">RSS Feeds</a></li>			<li>				<a href="../../../../OcwWeb/web/terms/terms/index.htm">Privacy and Terms of Use</a></li>			<li>				<a href="http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/help/sitemap/index.htm">Site Map</a></li>			<li><a href="http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/help/cite/index.htm">Cite OCW Content</a></li>		</ul>		<p>Your use of the MIT OpenCourseWare site and course materials is subject to our Creative Commons License and other terms of use.</p>		<!-- end footer links -->	</div>	<div class="license">		<a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/us/" target="_blank"			class="first"><img src="../../../../OcwWeb/images/cc_logo_new.gif" alt="Creative Commons - some rights reserved"				border="0" width="80" height="15" /></a><br />		<a href="http://www.ocwconsortium.org/" target="_blank" class="first">			<img src="../../../../OcwWeb/images/ocw-logo_new.gif" alt="OCW Consortium" width="80" height="44" /></a></div></div><div></div><!-- end footer --><!-- Start Webtrends Tracking Tag --><noscript>	<div> 	</div></noscript><!-- End Webtrends Tracking Tag -->			 </form>		</div>    </body></html>
