Mea culpa (Forgive me)

In my haste to tally your scores, I failed to calculate them correctly. If you got all fours and fives, your score is correct. If you received any threes or twos, I owe you points.
Here's why: on a five-point scale, 5= A, 4= B, 3 = C, 2 = D and 1 = F.
But 70% of 5 = 3.5, not 3 and 60% of 5 = 3, not 2.

For most people, it's not a big difference, only a couple of points, but every point counts. For a few people it's more, a whole grade difference.

Feel free to calculate your scores yourself and bring them to me on Monday and I will correct your score in engrade. Or we can sit down together and calculate it.

I'm sorry for any distress this has caused you and I apologize for my mathematical ineptitude.

Final Exam: Your Portfolio

Final exams are Monday (period 2) and Tuesday (period 3). You final exam is to turn in your portfolio.

Your portfolio can be a three-ring binder, a plastic folder, or some other kind of folder that allows you to turn the pages. You will come to my desk one at a time and show me your portfolio, turning the pages as you go.

For full credit, your portfolio should include the following:

Cover page
Table of contents
Letter of intent
Research paper
20-Hour Log
One or more of your score sheets
A typed reflection on the entire semester

You may also include other artifacts, if you like.
Clean copies of the letter of intent and research paper are preferable, but graded copies will be accepted.

Your portfolio conference should take 3-5 minutes, at which time I will write the grade on the portfolio and return it to you.

Congratulations! You are almost done with your Senior Project journey.
