The Magistra will grade each assignment. Points for each assignment can vary, but grades will be expressed in a percentage, 100/100, 52/60, 16/16, depending upon the value of the individual assignment and how well the student did.

The student should keep track of all grades from assignments by setting up a file and saving all graded assignments in that file. The Magistra does the same in Eudora, for instance, for each Latin student. Students can also keep a running total of their own grades to see how well they are doing in the course.

The Final Grade in Latin I is based upon the overall accumulated percentage of all assignments in the course. The Magistra will use the following scale to assign Final Grades:

A	90-100%
B	80-89%
C	70-79%
D	not given
F	course unfinished after ten months

The Magistra reserves the right to ask students to redo all assignments that are below 70%. Students also may redo all assignments below 90%, except Midterms and Finals. Midterm and/or Final percentages that are two (2) grades below the accumulated percentage grade will lower the Final Grade one full grade. For example, a "C" grade on the Semester Final will lower the Final Grade for the semester to a "B."

If students are unhappy with a grade on any assignment, except Midterms and Finals, they may propose an alternative assignment to replace that assignment and its grade. If students do not wish to complete a proposed Internet assignment, they may propose an alternative assignment, agreeable to both the Magistra and the student.

The Magistra will transmit interim grades if asked for, but normally does not post on the web a record of a student's progress. It is up to the student to keep a running total of his or her grades on assignments. If there are further questions on grading for COOLSchool, please contact the Magistra.
