ASSESSMENT: Quizzes (20 points each) Each quiz consists of a homework problem and a problem to be solved in-class. Midterm test (100 points) Comprehensive final exam (150 points) Labs Planning, Execution and Reports (20 points each lab) Each student is expected to complete the weekly lab assignments during lab time. Even though some labs May be performed as a group, the report is to be completed individually, and due on the following lab period. Note: In order to be eligible to receive a passing grade for the course, all labs must be completed and turned in prior to final exam date. Service Learning (20 points) Students are encouraged to participate in course-related service learning such as club activities and special projects. Attend ECS club meetings for more information.
