Grading[edit]
The finished project consists of several stages/smaller assignments--some of which are assessed individually (each person gets a separate grade) while others receive a group grade (everyone in the group shares the same score). Individual grades DO NOT mean complete own your own time and at your own pace. This work is primarily accomplished during "wiki work days", and team members who are absent will not be able to earn individual assignment points toward their final project grade.
Project at-a-glance[edit]
The table below lists the project stages, due dates, point totals, extra credit opportunities, and if the work will result in an individual or group grade. Step-by-step guidelines for each stage are located on TRACS and should always be reviewed prior to attending the "wiki work day" devoted to that topic.
