Include weekly reading assignments, regular quizzes based on
reading (including handouts developed by instructor and from
manufacturers), practical skills assignments and tests. Course
information will be supplemented by films and videos.
Writing: Assessment tools that demonstrate writing skill and/or require students to select, organize and explain ideas in writing. | Writing 0 - 0% |
None | |
This is a degree applicable course but assessment tools based on writing are not included because problem solving assessments and skill demonstrations are more appropriate for this course. |
|
Problem solving: Assessment tools, other than exams, that demonstrate competence in computational or non-computational problem solving skills. | Problem Solving 10 - 35% |
Homework problems, Quizzes, Exams | |
Skill Demonstrations: All skill-based and physical demonstrations used for assessment purposes including skill performance exams. | Skill Demonstrations 30 - 50% |
Class performances, Performance exams | |
Exams: All forms of formal testing, other than skill performance exams. | Exams 15 - 35% |
Multiple choice, True/false | |
Other: Includes any assessment tools that do not logically fit into the above categories. | Other Category 5 - 10% |
