HOW DO I TRACK MY BONUS POINTS?

​

Go to the class in Canvas and click on "grades". Scroll down to the end of the page. Add together three numbers:

number of points in the "Bonus Points" category + number of points in the "Lecture Video Quizzes" category + number of points in the "Quizzes on Videos" category 

 

DO NOT add up the %. You must add the actual points.

Terms and Conditions

3.  The late fee eraser cannot be used on the lecture video quizzes

4.  You can drop up to 3 studio class activities

5.  You can drop up to 2 show and tell projects

6.  Please do not ask me to figure out which actions will maximize your final grade. I am lousy at math.
