[archive] Grading
The course grades are dependent solely on score system. Scores are awarded for
- Homework assignments
- Course project stages
- Any other contributory activity
Each homework assignment has the base grade of 10 (unless stated otherwise). This means, that if you complete all the assignments, you'll get 10 points. However, efforts above the required problem set can be awarded with extra points.
For example, in week1 assignment, if you reach 98.5% score without using convolutions(listed as [bonus points]), you'll get 3 extra points. Extra scores can also be awarded for doing any sizeable sort of cool stuff not mentioned in the assignment, but related to it's topic.
All assignments that have due dates are subject to lateness penalty if submitted past deadline. The penalty is equal to log_2(days_past_deadline+1). Technically, this makes homework assignment fully decay in 1023 days (~3 years), but effectively your grade is still decided at the end of the term.
The grading table is as such:
- 0~39 pts - unsatisfactory
- 40~59 - satisfa(C)tory
- 60~79 - good jo(B)
- 80~infinity_and_beyond - (A)wesome
There is no limit to score you can get for the project, but finishing 12 HW assignments without extra points + completing a project with 2 iterations after initial commit and presenting results would yield you the score of 200. Unfortunately, you won't be able to share extra score with your friends.
