Final grades have been re-posted. I
am certain that the error has been corrected. Again I apologize for
the confusion, false hopes, and false scares over your grades. Please
let me know if there are any problems with this posting. |

The grades page has been updated with the
lowest quiz scores dropped. A link has been placed at the top of
the page to a page containing your quiz scores as
they were before the lowest scores were dropped. |
| 08 May 2000 |
The grades page has been updated to reflect
your grades on Project 5 and the In-Class Activities score. The "Overall"
column now reflects 90% of the total points for the semester. The
only variables are the final exam and the Peer Evaluation scores. Please
note that the Peer Evaluation scores could cause your individual project
grade to go down. |
| 05 May 2000 |
The grades page has been updated to reflect
Homework 3 and Homework 4. The "Overall" column still only reflects
75% of the total points for the semester. |
| 26 Apr 2000 |
The grades page has been updated to reflect
Project 4 grades. You will note a column labelled "Overall".
This is your overall weighted average with 75% of the total points for
the semester accounted for. Class activity grades, project presentation
scores and the final exam are not figured into the "Overall" score. |
| 13 Apr 2000 |
I have changed the link on the course calendar
page regarding Homework #4
so that it points to the correct assignment. Homework
#4 is a Usability Classification Exercise, not a website evaluation
exercise. |
| 08 Apr 2000 |
Changes have been made to the course calendar
to reflect the reality of the end of the semester. Please note these
changes in your calendars. The changes are in red
text so that you can easily identify the modifications. |
| 08 Apr 2000 |
Quizzes 19a and 20a were originally grades on a 20-point scale.
I have scaled them to a 10-point scale (divided the original score by 2)
in order to make computation of final grades easier. It will have
no effect on the weight of the quizzes in your total grade computation. |
| 08 Apr 2000 |
The grades page has been updated to reflect
the most recent quizzes. |
| 05 Apr 2000 |
The homework page has been updated

Homework 4 assignment has been dropped. |
