Marking Notes:
* As you
already know from personal (and perhaps painful) experience, marking
can be quite subjective. Therefore it is valuable to know how
assignments will be graded. Let me put this as simply as possible:
-
an
adequate job is considered a C grade of some sort - meaning C-, C or
C+ (note, however, that a C- should be taken as a "warning shot across the bow", i.e. it
is borderline work and next time such work will likely receive a D)
-
a
good job will receive a B grade of some sort - this means you have addressed the objectives of the assignment (and the assignment
includes references, images, diagrams, etc., as appropriate)
-
in order
to receive an A grade you will need to fully address the
objectives and impress me in someway - an 'A' goes above and beyond
the call of duty!
-
however,
I should warn you to consider this advice wisely - I do not expect a 24-hour
marathon effort for an assignment worth only 1% of your overall grade ... that
would be excessive effort for little gain (I was going to say "supremely stupid", but "excessive
effort for little gain" sounds
more professional somehow)
-
bottomline: I am expecting a professional product delivered on-time
