Keeping our community safe depends on each of us following the latest UCLA health and safety guidelines. Grading Scale: (Modify as appropriate) Letter Grade I am committed to making sure the assessment of your learning is comprehensive, fair, and incorporates best practices from education research on assessment design and inclusive practices. If you ever feel that an assignment or specific question is unfair or confusing please come and speak with me or your TA (ideally before it is due or during the assessment, but afterwards is okay also) so that we can address this concern as soon as possible. However, if I do find that particular assessment questions I gave an assignment or exam were unreasonably challenging, unclear, or unfair for any reason I will provide additional credit as appropriate.
Your grade is therefore not based on how you did in comparison to your peers, but instead how successful you are at evidencing that you have mastered the intended learning goals for that specific assessment. For this reason, I do not grade on a curve. This is true in data collected and analyzed for our students at UCLA as well. Why I do not grade on a curve: In recent years, research into higher education assessment practices have shown that grading on a curve can create unnecessarily competitive environments for students and result in outcomes that disadvantage some groups of students over others.
The final grade will be determined by participation (25%), a final exam for each workshop (50%), and a homework assignment for each workshop (25%). How Your Learning Will Be Assessed (Grading Policy) Computational and Systems Biology (Major)).
