So, as you know, this site (along with the Diigo group) is shared between the 7-weekers, the 15-weekers, and a small number of the “Outsiders,” who are not taking the course for credit. As of today, the 7-week semester is over for the course. 7-weekers still have one week of extra time to submit the last of their challenges. That date (the 14th) is absolute. On that day, I assemble the grades and send them off to the registrar.
I have audited the grades of the 7-weekers, making sure that you have credit for every bookmark and no credit where there is not a challenge bookmarked. If you see a discrepancy, first be sure that you have a bookmark tagged for the item, and that there are no comments from me about how you might fix it, then be sure to send me an email to let me know there is a problem.
There will be a final column in the gradebook, indicating the total eligible points. Note that the maximum number of possible points is 700, because the maximum for each module is 100. This corresponds to final grades as follows. (Please note that I have softened this curve substantially to better reflect student performance.)
650 - 700 -> A-
600 - 649 -> B+
550 - 599 -> B
500 - 549 -> B-
450 - 499 -> C+
400 - 449 - > C
350 - 399 -> C-
300 - 349 -> D+
250 - 299 -> D
<250 -> F
(Updated because I cannot add.)
Thanks!
