Course Grading: The points that you earn for lecture and lab are combined to calculate your overall grade. You will receive only one grade for this course! It is likely that there will be additional quizzes, which may alter the grading scale if it becomes necessary.

VAG packets will be turned in during lab. The pages that you will complete will correspond to the topics covered in lecture. Each packet is worth 25 points. Packets must be turned in on time. I will not accept late packets. Packet pages and due dates are posted on my website. Exams: Lecture Exams: There will be 4 lecture exams and a comprehensive lecture final exam. The lecture exams will be multi-format (essay, diagramming, short answer, multiple choice, matching, etc.). Each lecture exam will cover a specific unit, but will require an understanding of previous information. You must be in class when the class begins to take the exam. The door will be locked once the exam has started. If you arrive after the door is locked, you will not be allowed to enter the room and take the exam. Tardiness on an exam day will result in a score of zero on the exam. Plan accordingly so that you do not end up in a position where you are late to class and miss an exam. There is always traffic on the roads and parking is always an issue. There will be no exceptions to this policy. All bags and other items, including cell phones, will be put on the floor in the front of the classroom during each exam. You may not wear hats of any kind during an exam. You will not be allowed to have water bottles or any other beverage on your desk during an exam. You will need a pencil and your colored pencils for every exam. All labeling and diagrams on your exams must be in color. You will lose 2 points for each diagram or labeling question that is not in color. Lecture exams are scheduled and cannot be made up, except under extremely compelling circumstances with documentation! If you miss an exam without notifying me of the circumstances BEFORE the test, I will drop you from the course. Lab Exams: There will be four lab exams and a comprehensive lab final exam. Lab exams will be administered during your regular lab section. The lab exams will be multi-format (essay, diagramming, short answer, multiple choice, matching, etc.). Each lab exam will cover a specific unit, but will require an understanding of previous information. You must be in class when the class begins to take the exam. The door will be locked once the exam has started. If you arrive after the door is locked, you will not be allowed to enter the room and take the exam. Tardiness on an exam day will result in a score of zero on the exam. Plan accordingly so that you do not end up in a position where you are late to class and miss an exam. There
