Greetings Introductory Physics athletes,
We are more than half-way through the first quarter, and we now have some evidence to begin tracking your learning progress. Remember, we use the ActiveGrade system to keep track of your skill level from assessments, assignments, and lab activities.
A walkthrough presentation of ActiveGrade and the tips to succeed in this system can be viewed at the following link:

The main ideas to keep in mind about our system of feedback and grades are:
- This is a rubric system, not a point system. You don’t “lose points” nor “make up points”. You can simply show that you are getting smarter on subsequent assessments.
- Assessments determine your skill level relative to the skill rubric discussed in class.
- Your most current scores (your latest assessments) matter most.
- You achieve the best grade by actively learning from your past assessments.
- You are also assessed on the consistency of your homework. Keep up with your assignments.
