How do I give extra credit?

eGradebook FAQs
The easiest way to give extra credit points is to create an assignment for extra credit and make it part of a category that already exists. If you do this, and that category already has assignments in it with positive maximium point values, you may make the maximum value of the extra credit assignment 0.00. this time, you CANNOT have an assignment with no maximum value (i.e. a maximum value of 0.00) in a category by itself or with other assignments that have 0.00 as the maximum value.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. You can earn extra credit by writing up Summary and Opinions of scholastic events such as lectures, plays, poetry readings, or other performances of an educational nature. You probably won't earn the equivalent of a full homework assignment (I usually give 10 Homework points for extra credit), but it's still worth something in terms of your homework grade for this class. Your summary and opinion should be interesting.

Can I have extra credit?

FAQ
No. I’ll let you in on another professional secret: In student/teacher translation, I interpret “extra credit” as “extra grading,” and I do plenty of grading as it is. I do not have time to grade another assignment than the ones I have already created. Moreover, I am certain that you have plenty of opportunity to earn all 500 points available in this class. I work hard to ensure that you do.

FAQ: I've added an extra credit assignment but student grades haven't changed. Why?

Untitled Document
This problem can occur if you are using category weighting and have a category with extra credit assignments only. By definition, extra credit increases the number of points earned without increasing the number of points possible. So, in your extra credit category, a student may have 50 points of extra credit out of 0 points possible... no computer can do this kind of math! One solution is to move the extra credit assignments to a category with points possible.

Frequently Asked Questions: Arapahoe Community College
A credit hour is a measure of completed college work. Usually colleges give one credit hour for each hour of class time spent during the week. For example, MAT 121 (College Algebra) is a 4-credit course, therefore, you can expect to spend approximately 4 hours per week in your MAT 121 course. The more credits a course is worth, the more time and focus you can expect to spend on that class.

Q9. How much fuel does it burn an hour?

Kosmos Travel Log & 4. FAQ
A9. Our old boat " Seas the Day " was a single engine 8,000 pound boat that went about 25 knots. It burned about 15 gallons an hour at this cruising speed. Bigger dual engine boats range 20-40 gallons an hour. The Nordhavn 43 is about 55,000 pounds. Yet because of its design and slower speed, it consumes only about 2.5 gallons per hour. Slowing down burns as little as 1.8, speeding up can burn 3+. Said another way, we get about 2.5 to 3.
