Class Participation Grades

As you know, BUS477 is very participation-oriented. In total, participation counts for 10% of your grade in this class.

You start the class with a grade of zero.  You then earn participation grades.    

I'd like you to tell me the grade you feel you earned.

I'd like to do this for 4 reasons:

  1. I believe it will encourage you to participate even more during the last few classes. That will benefit you.
  2. It will give you the opportunity to assess yourself and put your best foot forward. 
  3. It will provide you a better opportunity to understand what "participation" means
  4. It will provide me with a benchmark

This is an opportunity, not an assignment.  I will still grade you, but before I assign your participation grade, I will consider what you feel your participation was worth and why you felt this way.

Format? A simple email report is fine. This is a business report, so make it clear and convincing. Bullet points are great. Spelling and grammar mistakes are not.  Please use the email subject line:  BUS477 - Class Participation Self-Evaluation - LastnameFirstname

Grading criteria? Please grade yourself /100 for class participation (5%) and /100 for community participation (5%). Be sure to justify your conclusions with facts. See the FAQ for details.

When? Within 5 days of the last day of class (elevator pitch.) I plan to submit your grades within a week of our last class, so you might want to start your report now! Wink
