| 學習評量方式 |
| The course grading is based on working through 6 biweekly problem sets (30%), an exam tentatively in week 8 (30%), completing a group project/presentation (30%), and participating in lecture (10%). The problem sets and exam are graded on a scale of maximum 100 points, while the group work is graded based on rubrics categories (Developing, Emerging, Meets Expectations, Exceeds Expectations). |
