Online quizzes will be administered there.
Online Quizzes - There will be approximately
four online quizzes, administered through E-Learning. You will have three
tries for each quiz (with questions randomly generated) over a period of several
days. Each quiz will be worth 10 points, for a total of 40 points. Hopefully
these quizzes will serve the purpose of improving your grade in the class, as
well as be an important tool in learning the material for the course. Quiz
details will be announced in class and the course website, see calendar on
last page of syllabus for dates. Projects - There will be several small
data analysis projects to be completed during the semester. All projects
together will be worth 60 points. Project details will be given in class and

during the semester, each worth 100 points. Regular exams are in multiple
choice format. Students are required
to take the exam in the section they are registered for. All students must
bring to the exam: their student ID number, picture ID, a non-graphing
calculator, and pencils. In case of conflict or illness, if a student is
unable to take an exam at the scheduled time, they must get in touch with the
instructor prior to the exam time for any arrangements to be made for a
makeup. Each case will be reviewed individually. Valid and detailed
documentation is a prerequisite under such extenuating circumstances. Makeup
exams may not be multiple choice. A grade of zero is the minimum punishment
of any type of dishonesty on an exam. Exam
