Methods of Evaluation/Basis of Grade.

Writing: Assessment tools that demonstrate writing skill and/or require students to select, organize and explain ideas in writing.		Writing 0 - 15%
Reports and/or Journals, Pre and post exercise meals, goal assignment
This is a degree applicable course but assessment tools based on writing are not included because 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 0 - 10%
Target Heart Rate Assignment
Skill Demonstrations: All skill-based and physical demonstrations used for assessment purposes including skill performance exams.		Skill Demonstrations 10 - 30%
Performance exams, fitness assessment including body composition
Exams: All forms of formal testing, other than skill performance exams.		Exams 10 - 30%
Final exam
Other: Includes any assessment tools that do not logically fit into the above categories.		Other Category 40 - 60%
Attendance and Participation, outside activity
