Hi, Parents and Students and welcome to the wonderful and AMAZING world of Astrobiology!
This is the 3rd year of the Astrobiology Pilot. All students will be sharing a class set of textbooks, but will be doing additional reading listed on the blog. Please get into the habit of checking out the astro-blog on a daily basis! I will try to keep this blog up with what's going on in class and the day/week assignments.
Students will be keeping a journal for the year. They will use Noteshare (on their laptops) for the journal. Their prompts will be on the board (and in this blog)
Grades will be accessible online for parents and students. This is something new this year. I will also post grades every week.
Just a couple of notes on grades:
If a student is absent, late with an assignment, etc, there will be an "empty spot" in their grades. The program will see the blank spot as a 0% and will average this 0 into your son/daughter's grade making it lower.
This grade will remain this way until the following Monday. This will be a reminder to both student and parent that the assignment needs to be made up ASAP!
