Some Chapters have 3 sections. Some Chapters have OTHER ASSIGNMENTS eg. MATH PRACTICE SETS. Each set counts for 100 points. You must show the "set-up work". Case Study - Each Chapter has a Case Study, which is usually done in class together. 100 points Fact & Idea Review - Located at the END of EACH CHAPTER - 100 points Other assignments will be added as needed and are worth 100 Points each.
TESTS FOR EACH CHAPTER: TESTS - Usually 25 questions total, a mix of MATCHING, TRUE & FALSE, FILL IN WORDS and a choice of ONE of TWO ESSAY QUESTIONS. ONE ESSAY is worth up to 10 POINTS of EXTRA CREDIT. The ESSAY is graded using a RUBRIC. Remember that 10 points can raise the Test grade ONE LETTER GRADE. It's usually worth it. WORK SHEETS - Some tests will be a combination of WORK SHEETS of Vocabulary, Mini Essays, and other questions. CASE STUDIES - International Case Studies of real world business problems usually with FIVE QUESTIONS worth 20 POINTS each. These are usually done in class together or in small groups.
CLASS PARTICIPATION MEANS : This is a School Classroom, you are expected to participate in the traditional process of CLASSROOM EDUCATION - Reading the textbook material, discussing definitions, and current topics in Marketing that relate to the textbook material. Marketing Education is a SCHOOL-TO-CAREER PROGRAM - Employers expect us to teach you SOFT SKILLS (EMPLOYABILITY SKILLS) to help you understand what is expected of you on the job and in college. Excessive talking to neighbors, bringing up subjects that are not related to the textbook material, disruption of the Class, and especially ANYTHING THAT DISRUPTS THE ABILITY OF OTHER STUDENTS TO LEARN will LOWER YOUR CLASS PARTICIPATION GRADE.
