| Assessment/Grading |
|
Evaluation standards (Grade: S=90-100%, A=80-89%, B=70-79%, C=60-69%, D=59% & below) are determined from the sum (100 % possible) of the following three criteria: 1. Participation policy (up to 30 %) Exhibit good effort at all times. The following will positively affect your final grade: - Make voluntary efforts - Ensure a safe environment for yourself and other students - Demonstrate your exercises clearly and appropriately - Accurately record information about your exercises 2. Paper report (up to 30 %) Describe the characteristics of your physical fitness. Objectively evaluate your physical fitness and discuss the effects of exercise. Describe a subsequent exercise program and your future lifestyle. 3. Attendance policy (up to 40 %) Maximum learning cannot occur when you fail to attend class. Each unexcused absence (up to three times) will result in a one-letter grade deduction from your final grade. Being chronically tardy will also negatively affect your final grade. |
