A major aspect of assessment (20%) for this class is:

• Being in class every session.
• Actively participating in class every session. This means:
  • Presenting when asked.
  • Actively listening to presentations of other students
  • Actively asking questions or making suggestions related to other student project presentations.

20% of the total grade for this class will be for the above activities. Most students will obtain this 20% simply by being present and being active each and every class session. If the instructor assesses you as falling behind in this regard they will speak to you and ask you to rectify your less than active participation. 

The remaining 80% of the final grade is for production and presentation of a conference style poster detailing a group’s work on their capstone project.
