Breakdown

Three components to your grade

  1. Project: 60%
  2. Four project phases, each phase counts equally.
    1. In each phase, separate grades will be determined for the entire project, and for each of the system’s sub-components.
    2. In each phase, each student’s grade is computed as: 0.5 * the grade for the entire project + 0.5 * the grade for the sub-component that the student worked on
  3. Homework: 20%
    • Four homeworks - each counts equally.
  4. Final Presentation: 20%
    • Top five rated presentations across both sections will be given a bonus.
    • Presentations for both sections will happen on the same night.
