• This class in the previous years (as I taught)

#### Tests

• Test 1 (2 hours long) October 19, Wed, 19:00–21:00, SF 3202

For early/late sittings TBA

#### Marking scheme

Your Final Mark will be computed as follows: \begin{gather} \mathsf{FM}= \min\bigl[\mathsf{T}_1 + \mathsf{T}_2 + \mathsf{Q} + \mathsf{BM}+\mathsf{FEM},\, 100\bigr],\\[3pt] \mathsf{Q} = \mathsf{Q}_1 + \mathsf{Q}_2+\mathsf{Q}_3 + \mathsf{Q}_4 + \mathsf{Q}_5 + \mathsf{Q}_7 \qquad \text{with 2 worst Quizzes dropped} \end{gather} where $\mathsf{FM}$ and $\mathsf{FE}$ are your Final Mark, and the Final Exams Mark respectively,

• $\mathsf{T}_1$ and $\mathsf{T}_2$ are your Test 1 and Test 2 marks (each of these tests is worth 20 points),
• $\mathsf{Q}_n$ are Quiz marks (each 4 points worth), $n=1,2,\ldots,7$, two worst of them is dropped, so $\mathsf{Q}$ is 20 points worth,
• $\mathsf{BM}$ is the bonus mark calculated as $\mathsf{BM}=\min (\mathsf{B}_{\text{class}}^{\text{Lec}}+\mathsf{B}_{\text{class}}^{\text{Tut}}+\mathsf{B}_{\text{web}},10)$, where
• $\mathsf{B}_{\textsf{class}}^{\text{Lec}}$, $\mathsf{B}_{\textsf{class}}^{\text{Tut}}$ and $\mathsf{B}_{\textsf{web}}$ are the bonus points for the activity in the class (during lectures and tutorials, respectively) and contributions to the forum.
• $\mathsf{FEM}$ is a Final Exam Mark, 40 points

Home assignments are neither submitted nor graded but Quizzes will be drawn from Home assignments which are due, Quizzes are usually biweekly and are 15—20 min long in class time, see Lecture Notes which cover also Home assignments and Quizzes.

#### Missing work

There will be no make up (even) for a legitimately missing work, but the remainder will count heavier. Namely: $\mathsf{FM}$ will get factor $100/(100-L)$ with $L$ the sum of all legitimately missed tests or quizzes (quizzes—in excess of two).

Since there will be early and late sittings for Tests and since Quizzes are during class time you need to provide a Verification of Student Illness or Injury form covering the day of the missing test.

Loss of work must be reported the day of the return of the respective work.
