COVID Project

Lillian Ngo made a cool poster that I posted with the rest of the COVID projects here: http://mobileapps1920.svctestudents.org/projects/

Memorial Day Calendar

Monday, May 25 is the Memorial Day holiday. We will not hold our usual PM class session that day, even though it is on the calendar and you may receive an email or a reminder. However, I hope we can have our usual PM class session on Tuesday instead. All other class sessions will take place as scheduled:

AM class = Tuesday and Thursday at 8:00 am
PM class = (Tuesday and) Wednesday at 12:30 pm

If you cannot attend a class session due to a conflict, please let me know ahead of time. You may attend the other class's session to make sure you don't miss any important information.

Assignments and Grades

The situation continues in flux and confusing, but my latest understanding is that Infinite Campus is locked. While we can continue to change grades as you complete your projects, we will enter the grades with a form instead of through IC. I will make an announcement next week if this changes.

Some of you already turned in work after the deadline yesterday, and I am unable to enter your work into IC. So be patient, and any work you do (or do not do) will be reflected eventually in your final grade.

Mission College Credit

I added an assignment at the end of Infinite Campus to indicate your status with respect to the Mission College credit. This assignment is weighted so that it is only worth one point, but it indicates your current status. To get the college credit:

• Your current IC grade as of May 21 must be 80% or higher.
• You must complete the final project, in the form of a 90% checkpoint or the Personality Quiz.

Meaning of the numbers:

• 100 means you turned in a Checkpoint 3 that is 90% finished and super quality. 
• 80 means you finished the Personality Quiz only. 
• In between means you did some combination or your checkpoint is not 90% finished. 
• 0 (zero) means your grade is < 80 overall, OR
• 0 (zero) means you did not do the Personality Quiz or any progress toward the final project.

You can still continue to work on your project next week.
