Grading for this class is very simple.

Efffort and Behavior 40%...I am looking for the students to try and do thingscorrectly so that they improve. I watch during the keyboarding practice time and try gently encourage or nag the heck out of them.

Practice tests 0%.... These are given to get a benchmark level as to how the kids are improving. I record the scores yet they will not effect the grade in the class.

Weekly articles 20%... These are worked on during the second 1/2 of the class period. I generally give these out on Tuesday, to be completed by the end of that week.

Projects20%These will be done intermittently throughout the trimester

Tests 20 % ...... These are to check speed and accuracy.
