Tests and Assignments

The number of tests and assignments within a course can vary, but all together will always constitute 70% of a student’s final mark. As well, the type of tests assignments vary and may include labs, projects, discussion board participation, short answer questions as well as essays, audio recordings and video presentations. Assignments can be uploaded online or scanned and attached as an email.

Students are given suggested timelines in each of their courses to help them complete the course credit in a reasonable amount of time. However, students may establish their own schedule for regularly submitting assignments and writing tests. Course instructors return assignments with grades and comments consistent with assessment and evaluation policies of the Ontario Ministry of Education.
