Each
assignment is worth twenty points:
| Formatting: double-spaced, one-inch margins on all sides, titled, word processed in a 12 font | 4 points |
| Evidence of your having
used an electronic spell check and grammar check and that you have
proofread your own work. Since this is a grammar class in which you are learning to be somewhat independent in your use of grammar, please do not have anyone else proofread your writing for you. |
4 points |
| Submitted on time: at the beginning of class or earlier via e-mail. Even if you are going to be absent, you are responsible for submitting your work on time. Sending it through e-mail is the best way to submit your work if you are going to be absent from class. No late work is accepted. | 4 points |
| Application of rules of usage and grammar: Errors in grammar rules that we have studied will result in a loss of points. Subtract one point for each grammatical error. | 8 points |
Your final grade is based on the following scale:

80
to 89 percent = B
70
to 79 percent = C
60
to 69 percent = D
0
