Grading: Each student’s ESC 120 module grade is based on attendance and project participation. Each day is worth 20% of the module grade. The projects involve teams of students, but individual effort is required for each project. Module grades are presented to the ESC 120 coordinator, who averages each student’s module grades to determine his or her overall grade for the course.
