Grading

Your grading in this class is based on the following :

Discussion exam

Group Film

Extinction presentation

Discussion exam relates to your capacity to respond to any of the questions provided for each lecture.

There will be 13 lectures, but you can choose to be tested in only 10. That will reduce the burden of materials you have to study, and avoid topics that may have been hard to learn.

I will simply select any question randomly from the topics you tell me you are skilled about.

AGAIN, YOU CHOOSE THE LECTURES, AND I SELECT THE QUESTIONS.

If you fail to correctly respond to any of the questions, you will have to go back and prepare again.

You may be able to take this exam multiple times as time allows until the last week of the semester. There will be no penalty to take the test again.

I want to help you get the grade that you want but I also want for you to own/deserve the grade you want.

You can use the number of chapters you claim you know to get the grade that you will get on the class using the table below. Say you can answer correctly to any question of ten chapters, then your grade will be an A. If on top of that you deliver your projects (Extinction and 1 minute commercial), then your grade will be an A+.
