The other 70 points will be based on your graded lab homework for the week. The overall grade for the lab will be based on these individual 100 point lab grades. Your lowest lab grade will be dropped and the sum of remaining labs will be used to compute a percentage score out of 100. This number will be the amount of points you receive for the overall lab grade. You must receive a passing grade in the lab in order to pass Physics 111.
Attendance is mandatory.
If you can not attend your scheduled lab a given week but can attend at the other lab time see your instructor and he or she will make arrangements for you to attend the other session. You will be allowed one excused absence that will be treated as your lowest lab and dropped. In the case of prolonged illness or other situation requiring multiple lab absences you are responsible for making arrangements with your instructor for alternative methods of completing the lab portion of the course. If you have any other questions about the lab please refer to the Physics 111 handout or ask your lab instructor.
