Calificación

Grading Options Grading Basis: The grade for this course will be based solely on the student's score on the CLEP Humanities Exam, provided the score is sent directly to the instructor. This approach ensures that the final grade reflects the student's comprehensive understanding and readiness for college credit. Grading Provision: By Request: Grades will be provided upon request. Students or parents can request the grade once the CLEP exam score is available. Default Provision: Grades will not be provided by default. Students and parents must request the grade to receive it. Role of Grades: Grades in this class play a limited role, primarily serving as a measure of final achievement on the CLEP Humanities Exam. The focus of the course is on learning and mastering the material, rather than continuous assessment through grades.

College Credit: A qualifying CLEP exam score can earn college credit, which is the ultimate goal of the course. Students are encouraged to take the CLEP Humanities Exam seriously, as the score not only reflects their performance in the course but also their potential to earn college credit. The course is structured to support students in achieving the best possible outcome on the CLEP exam, with grades available to those who request them for their records.
