Calculation of the final grade:
Term Average=0.15*Midterm1 + 0.25*Midterm2 + 0.2*Quiz Average + 0.4*Lab. Average
Final Grade= 0.6*Term Average+0.4*Final Exam
Homework: Homework will be assigned regularly throughout the semester. 25% of the Quiz Average will be
from the homework grades.
Exams: There will be eight 15-minute quizzes, two midterm exams and a final exam.
Homework Policy:
Homework will be assigned regularly throughout the semester. Although they will not be graded, students are
encouraged to do the homework since quiz question will be similar to the homework questions.
Laboratory Policy:
There will be 8 experiments. Students working in the same experiment group are allowed to write a report for
each experiment. All students who belong to the same group receive the same grade for the report. A report
should include the following: objective of the experiment, procedure, measured data and values calculated
from these data, calculation of expected values, related plots, explanation and discussion of the results,
differences between experimental and theoretical results, conclusion, and answers of the questions given in the
handouts. There will be no make-up for the missing experiments unless an official sick report is submitted.
