Project Grading

Projects have two parts: a required part and a collection of approved bells and whistles (extentions to the required part). Each team is expected to complete the require part, and at least a minimum number of bells and whistles.

Projects are graded during 30 minute in-person grading sessions. A sign up sheet will be posted in Sieg 228 just prior to the due date for the assignment. Somewhat up-to-date copies of the sign-up sheets are on-line, in case you forget when you signed up.

Grading sessions will consist of:

The project implementations will be graded on a 10-point scale. Unlimited extra credit is possible on each project; however, each point of extra credit is twice as difficult to achieve as the previous point.

One bell carries the same credit as two whistles. The first extra bell and whistle are good for one point of extra credit. It takes two more bells and whistles to earn the second point of extra credit, and so on.

Project knowledge will be graded on a 3-point scale, separately for each team member. Here's a rough breakdown to give you a feeling for how points will be assigned:

1 pts:
Almost clueless: Answers to questions showed a severe lack of understanding. (I don't expect anybody to get this grade!)
2 pts:
Answers to questions showed an understanding at only a superficial level.
3 pts:
Answers to questions demonstrated a thorough understanding of the project. This is is the grade we expect to give almost all of the time.
