Our goal is to assess what the students have learned from what we have taught. Summative assessments reflect the format and content of the formative learning opportunities.
Make-up Policy for Summative Assessment: The student may redo the summative assessment one time within one week after completing all formative tasks, and necessary additional learning. It is the student’s responsibility to advocate for this opportunity and make the necessary arrangements.
Cumulative Final: At the end of the semester, there will be a cumulative final exam. Students will not be allowed to retake this assessment. This will comprise 15% of the semester grade.
