COURSE REQUIREMENTS
TEXT: Brooks, Douglas (2004) The Complete Book of Personal Training,
Champaign: Human Kinetics Publishers.
ATTENDANCE: Students are expected to attend all evaluation sessions
scheduled in the course. Failure to attend class for scheduled tests are not
normally made up; and, leaving class early after quizzes will nullify that quiz
score. Failure to attend student presentations will affect grades.
COURSE EVALUATION
The percentage break down for the student evaluation in the course will
be as follows:
Two major exams -- objective 50 question exams, curved to highest grade on
each test (25% x 2 = 50%)
Daily Quizzes – objective; no make-ups, but lowest two quiz grades dropped,
remainder averaged (25%)
Class project presentations: (25%)
Bonus: Group exercise participation (0-10 pts) Two group exercise sessions at
the Pohl Rec Center.
The final grade in the course will be based upon the accumulated percentages
and will be assigned as a letter grade on the approximate basis of the following:
A = 90% and higher
Example:
B = 80 - 89%
Test 1 = 42/50 =
84%
C = 70 - 79%
Test 2 = 36/50 =
72%
D = 60 - 69%
Class project =
78%
F = 59% and lower
Quiz Ave. = 1392/16 =
87%
Final Grade = 84 + 72 + 78 + 87 + 6 Bonus Points = 327/4 = 81.75 = B
