Dendrology Laboratory Syllabus
Grading:
The point distribution for grading each quiz specimen is as follows:
Family: 1 point Species: 1 point
Genus: 1 point Common Name: 3 points
*One-half
point will be deducted for each misspelling of any part of the Latin name.
The final numerical grade in the course will be based on the average of all
quizzes. The final course average will be calculated as points earned/total
points possible.
If you
miss a quiz, the grade will be recorded as a zero (0) unless an acceptable
medical excuse is provided or a death occurs in your immediate
family. The instructor
will schedule a make-up quiz if and when appropriate. If you are sick or need
to travel home, contact one of the instructors as soon as possible. Written
permission to schedule a make-up quiz must be obtained from the course instructor.
The College of Natural Resources Firefighting Policy will be followed.
