A desk calculator is also required. Every student's course grade will be based directly on her or his overall course score. The student's score will be a weighted average of the scores earned on all course requirements. The weights used in computing such averages are listed below. The Midterm and Final have the same open-book format.
Homework is to be handed in one week from when it is assigned at the beginning of the class.
Numerical answers and computer output of SPSS must be explained in words and interpreted in the context of the problem. All homework must be legible and stapled. The students are strongly recommended to keep pace with the progress of the course material. Without documented emergencies, permission will not be granted to individual student seeking to turn in late assignments, to take tests late, or to be excused from one or more course requirements. Any documentation for late work must be turned in with the late assignments within three working days upon returning to class.
