Evaluation Criteria

We're not talking attendance, but we might give a pop quiz to strike fear into your heart. The majority of your grade will come from class assignments and projects.

Grading Criteria:

• 60% - The assignment meets the specs provided
• 10% - Your communication and problem solving to get the assignment done and learn the material
  • Github issues
  • In class participation
  • Helping other classmates on a Github issue
• 30% - Our subjective assessment of how maintainable your code is:
  • Does it follow the conventions that we've discussed in class?
  • Is the code in the right place?
  • Are there tests that would help someone understand and work on your project?
  • Can we easily follow your process through git history?
• Possible in-class quizzes will be added in
• If you do a great job helping someone on a Github issue we're likely to give you a bonus

Troubleshooting

If you get stuck on an assignment, add a Github Issue to the NKU class repo. Please browse other issues before creating a new one in case someone has already asked your question. Also, please feel free to comment on any open issues.
