6. Approach to Grading I don’t grade on the curve, I grade based on whether students meet the required standard Everyone in the course can earn an A – over the past few courses, I’ve assigned nearly 30% of my students an A Even if you think you can't get an A, or you don’t typically get an A, it’s possible – you just need to do all the work to the best of your ability Assignments will be collected electronically prior to the start of class. Late assignments will be graded down: the amount of reduction depends on how late they are received Any questions on grading? BA 563: Business Process Management6
