• Classroom activities will be graded out of 30 points. The 30 points earned from classroom activities will be divided by the number of activities attended to determine the point value for each activity. (For example, if a student who attends the most activities attends 5 activities, they will receive 6 points for each activity. Therefore, a student who attends 5 activities will receive 30 points; a student who attends 3 activities will receive 18 points.) • Preparing and delivering the Classroom Learning Plan (PLP) will be graded out of 70 points. • NOTE 1: Documents related to the PLP should be submitted as Word files to the assignment section opened in Teams. Visuals (including images of equipment and presentations) should also be submitted here. Students preparing activities as a group will submit their assignments individually. • NOTE 2: For students who do not have attendance requirements and do not complete the activities, their Class Participation Points will be calculated by averaging their midterm and final exam grades.
