ME 357&358 General Course Information Grading Policy Course: Exam 1: 35% Projects: Prototype: 50% Exam 2: 35% Presentation: 15% Homework and Quizzes 20% Design Review I: 10% Attendance: 10% Design Review II: 10% Total 100% Final Report: 15% Group Score Total 100% X Group and Participation Evaluation Individual Score Projects and in-class activities will be submitted and graded as a team grade.The exams,group and participation evaluation will be graded on an individual basis. Machine Shop Usage It is expected that you have received machine shop training during ME 250 and are certified to use the machines in the machine shop.If you do not have this certification then it is your responsibility to gain it as soon as possible since it will be needed for completion of the projects.Incomplete machine shop training will not be accepted as an excuse for your projects.If you do not have this training,please inform the course instructor immediately so that arrangements can be made for training. The machine shop is a highly used resource in the department and shop time is very valuable. Missing a machine-shop time slot will be considered a serious offense.There will be a 5%penalty accessed your team project for each two-hour machine-shop slot missed.In addition,there will be a 2 point penalty (out of 100)applied to the final course grade total of the offending individual for every two-hour machine-shop time slot missed.If missing machine-shop slots becomes habitual,machine shop privileges will be revoked.
