The final class grade results using several different assessment criteria, as follows:
| Assessment criteria | Weight |
|---|---|
| Attendance/Participation (AP) | 10% |
| Homework (HW) | 20% |
| Seminar (SE) | 30% |
| Midterm Exam (ME) | 10% |
| Final Exam (FE) | 30% |
Final Grade = 0.10*AP + 0.20*HW + 0.30*SE + 0.10*ME +0.30*FE
An alternative path (after approval of the instructor) includes pursuing an independent Computer Programming/Data Analysis project (PR), which can be assessed up to 40% of the total class grade (based on the additional workload of the assignment).
In this case, the final grade is computed as
Final Grade = x*PR + (1-x) * (0.10*AP + 0.20*HW + 0.30*SE + 0.10*ME +0.30*FE)
where x corresponds to the weight of the independent project that will be decided between individual students and the instructor, based on the workload of the assigned project.
