Assignments and lab projects and schedules will be available from the course web site. Students are expected to view/download the assignments and lab projects. Thus students should make it a point to visit it frequently. Failing to check the course web site is not an acceptable excuse for late submission, or missing exams. Late submissions, unless permitted, will not be accepted. The others portion of the grade will be a subjective part reflecting class participation, effort, individual contribution to the project, project presentation and significant improvement during the semester. Assignment & Quizzes There will be several assignments. It includes data modeling and SQL projects. The assignments have to be submitted at the beginning of class on the due date. In addition there may be announced or unannounced quizzes/assignments. Lab Attendance is REQUIRED. During each lab session you will be expected to complete the lab material provided with the syllabus bellow. Your work and progress will be reviewed and evaluated at designated milestones. Furthermore, you may do the cases listed in the Lab schedule for extra credit. The cases will be collected at the end of the semester. Project Each group of students will select a project which they will work on through the semester. It involves the design of the database, forms, reports and a switchboard for a real life system of their choice. Grading Scale Grading is expected to be on the following scale:
95+ 90-94 87-89 83-86 80-82 77-79 73-76 70-72 67-69 63-66 60-62 0-60 A AB+ B BC+ C CD+ D DF

This is just a guideline, the final grading may differ from this scale. NOTE: The minimum passing grade for the course is "C". Participation Engaging in a conversation with others is one of the best ways to learn. The participation grade is designed to acknowledge that people who actively participate in class activities do learn more than people who do not. The grade is based on your participation in-class and on-line. Communication Scheduled office hours, E-mail, posting on the web and special meetings may be used to communicate with the instructor. I encourage you to contact me ASAP and not wait till the last minute to resolve problems.
