The quality of writing interferes with understanding the writer's intent and factual error abound. Content contains substantial gaps, is shallow, and fails to indicate more than a minimal understanding of the material. Student is sometimes absent and fails to participate in a meaningful way in class. Does not meet requirements, writing is incomprehensible. At this level, it is likely to be difficult to assess factual errors due to poor writing.
Content demonstrates a near complete lack of understanding of the material.
Student is usually absent from class, fails to attempt assignments, and when present is disruptive. A full college load of twelve or more credits is more than a full time job, especially as APU packs a full semester course into just ten weeks. Expect a substantial work load. Students who work the hardest and struggle the most naturally gain the most from a course. Courses can be fun, but it is my experience that the fun follow on the heels of hard work.
