Grading and Submission Instructions

To submit, write your responses to the following questions in a Word document, then upload it to Blackboard under this week's folder in Current Assignments.

Since you are working in groups, only one person needs to upload, but don't forget to write all member's names at the top of the document.

We will typically try to complete Labs during class, but if we run over they are due Sunday at 11:59pm eastern time.

Labs are graded out of 5 points, based on the following rubric:

0 - Student does not submit on time or submits plagiarized or unacceptable work. Double check that you have attached the right file, as usually students get zeros because they upload a previous week's Lab by accident.

1 - Student answers less than half of the questions with sufficient or accurate responses. Make sure that you are leaving yourself enough time to complete the Lab, as usually students submit incomplete work because they were rushed at the last minute.

3 - Student answers almost all questions with sufficient and accurate responses. If you encounter a problem or have a question about one of the questions, be sure to ask, either by calling me over or posting in Ask the Instructor well before 24 hours before the due date. After posting in Ask the Instructor, continue to attempt to resolve the issue on your own while you wait for a reply.

5 - Great job, maximum points! The student answers all questions accurately and sufficiently, demonstrating the best of their ability.
