Note: Though the points students earn for doing these MyEconLab Homework Assignments and Quizzes will not figure DIRECTLY into their grade for the course, they will figure into their grade INDIRECTLY. The reason for this is that students cannot take the UNIT EXAMS or the Final Exam without working through these MyEconLab assignments. Students must make at least a 65% on each assignment before they can move on to the next assignment and eventually onto the UNIT EXAMS. For a listing of the Prerequisites for all the MyEconLab assignments and Blackboard exams see HERE.
Each Chapter Homework Assignment is worth up to 20 points. Students will have to make a 65% (13 of 20 points) on each to be able to move on the the associated Chapter Quiz. Each Chapter Quiz is worth up to 40 points. Students will have to make 65% (27 of 40 points) on these Quizzes to move on to the next Chapter Homework Assignment or to the UNIT EXAM. The points students earn on homework assignments on MyEconLab will be exactly the points recorded for Homework Assignments on the course's ACC Blackboard gradebook site. The same is true for the points earned on MyEconLab Quizzes. The Chapter Homework Assignments and Quizzes can be submitted after their due dates with a penalty of 2% off their grade for each additional day it is tardy.

Extra Credit Tests on MyEconLab over chapters from
Miller's Economics Today: The Micro View
Students must make at least a 65% or better to earn any points on the tests.
If a student makes 65% or better on an Extra Credit Test, I will take the percentage
correct the student made on such a test and multiply that percentage times 20
points.
For example, if a student made an 80% on the Extra Credit Exam for Chapter 6,
I would record 16 extra credit Type 2 points for that score (0.80*20=16).
However, if a student make a 64% on the Extra Credit Exam for Chapter 6, then
I would record no extra credit Type 2 points for that score.
