Grade Overview

Grading Policy

Assignments and participation not completed by the due date and time will receive a 0 with no opportunity for improvement (for that grade), so turn it in on time if you don't want a 0. A big part of your grade is simply based on showing up to class, participating, and doing your work on time.

If you're not happy with your grade on an assignment, you can re-do the assignment. To re-do it, rename your original assignment to V1, then upload your revision in it's place, and shoot me an email to review your revision.

Work flow for a re-submission example:

This will allow you to keep your original version and give you a manual way to do versioning.

Your grade will not go down if you re-do an assignment. If you got a 0, that means the assignment was not where it was supposed to be (or it was named incorrectly). You can re-submit your work one time up to 1 week after the due date.

Are you wondering why you got the grade that you got? Review your work and compare it to the scoring list below. Still not sure? Ask some of your peers what they think. Being a webmaster (that's what you are) means being able to use the critical eye that we used in our first class to review your own site. I want you to be proud of your work. All of your work in this class can be used in the final project so making it all top-notch is highly recommended.

Please note that the point totals are a general basis used to objectively grade your work. If there are major problems with one area, like if your work has a ton of typo's or not much content when there should be a bunch of content, more than the point amount shown may be taken off. I attempted to make scoring as objective as possible.

I reserve the right to reduce the total points awarded for assignments completed late at my discretion. As you may have gathered, I really want you to have work that you're proud to show to others; part of life is getting things done on time. Time management is a skill that can be used throughout your life, learn it sooner than later.

Plagiarism

On web sites it's pretty common to "steal code". In this class, I don't mind if you start from someone else's design, but you need to make it your own. That means you need to create/use your own graphics, color schemes, and content. By being able to start with something and tweak it, that tells me that you understand how to build web pages (which is a big part of the goal of this class). Simply using someone else's design, however, is not acceptable. You must "make it your own".
