List of assessments/activities that will generate the student’s grade, with a thorough description of the requirements/methods of assessment of each. Be as specific as possible about the number and types of assignments. Each assignment should align with one or more leaning objectives. If the course has a field experience put that information here. On the syllabus given to students, the date of the final exam must be given.

That same list without descriptions, but with the percentage (weights) or points each receives.

The course grading scale. If percentages are used in the list without descriptions then use percentages for the grading scale. If points are used in the list, use points.

If attendance is to be graded, include the following required statement regarding a face-to-face section in addition to your attendance grading criteria:

Attendance

This section is a face-to-face OR synchronous online OR asynchronous online OR hybrid (choose one) instructional class. Attendance expectations and accommodations are defined in Academic Operating Policy 12.09.. You will also need to expand here about what participation includes.

If this is also a synchronous online, asynchronous online, or hybrid course, address how attendance and participation will be measured in the online portions of the course.

Technology

Include information here that clearly outlines the technology needs that are necessary for the course. For example, “This course requires students to have the consistent use of online video and audio to fully participate in the course assignments.
