Lab Grading/Attendance:

All students in CSC101 must be signed up for a lab section. 30 percent of your total grade for the course will be determined by your performance in the labs. Students are expected to complete all 12 lab modules.

Attend your own lab time and don't miss your lab

  1. On-time completion of each module will earn you 25 points.

  2. If you are unable to complete a lab module during lab time, you will be credited with 12 points.

  3. You may complete an incomplete lab module at a later date and show the results to your lab instructor during the following week's lab period only. You will receive the remaining 13 points when the module is marked as complete. No additional points are awarded if the module is not completed a week after being given.

What happens if you miss a week?

  1. You will be penalized for not showing up to your lab period and will only earn 20 points for that lab module if you complete it the next week.

  2. The next week's lab period is the absolute deadline for starting a module, you will receive a zero for it after that.

  3. A late lab that is not completed during a lab period will earn you 10 points, you may complete the lab at a later date and show the results to your lab instructor during the following week's lab period only, you will receive the remaining 10 points at that time, no additional points will be awarded if the module is not completed at that time.

Can you attend a lab period other than the one that you have registered for?

You are expected to only attend the lab period that you have registered for, however, under some circumstances with a written permission from your course instructor (not the lab instructor), you may attend another lab period. Keep in mind that all lab periods are filled to capacity, any extra bodies will cause unnecessary stress to all students attending it, avoid requesting a switch when possible.

Important calendar information:

  1. There will be no Labs during the first week of classes.

  2. Monday, September 7th,
    Monday, September 21st,
    Wednesday, September 30th,
    Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, November 25th through the 27th
    are holidays and there will be no labs on those days.

  3. Tuesday, September 22nd is supposed to be a Wednesday schedule, thus during that week, students in Wednesday labs will attend labs on two days and will do two separate modules. Students on Tuesday labs won't attend lab that week.

  4. Keep in mind that all of these days off and the day switch mean that not all lab sessions will progress at the same rate, but, all students will complete the 12 lab modules scheduled during the semester. Once your have completed the 12 lab modules, your attendance will become optional, you may continue to attend and seek help on assignments.
