Grades Updated on JPAMS

Please see your grade on JPAMS.  Lowest classwork and test grades have been dropped.  Extra credit has been applied.  Please see me Friday with any questions about your grades.

No Grades Dropped through Thursday

I have removed the dropped grades through Thursday to enter the numerous make-up tests. I will drop the lowest classwork and test grades after I enter the next test and binder check. The drop does not apply automatically in the JPAMS program; I must manually redo the drop after each assignment.

Grades Updated on JPAMS

Today's test and binder check have been added to JPAMS.  The lowest grade in both the test and classwork categories have been dropped.  If you do not see a grade on JPAMS for today's work that means that today's score was the lowest in that category.

GLE #17 Grades Posted to JPAMs

Please see JPAMS for the grades on the GLE #17 assignment.

Grades Updated on JPAMS

Please see JPAMS for your latest grades.  If you do not see today's test/binder check then they have been dropped as your lowest grade.

Please be mindful of the deadlines for make-up tests and assignments!  See your agenda for the policy.

Grades Updated on JPAMS

The grades for the last test and binder check or the second grading period have been posted.  The drops have been calculated, so this should be your grade for the report card unless you missed today's test and binder check.

Point Sheets

Point sheets reflecting today's binder check, with the drops for lowest test and classwork grades, have been given to all students present today.  JPAMS is up to date except for the three students with make-up tests done earlier this week.

JPAMs Updated

The research papers and today's test are now on JPAMs.  We will discuss them tomorrow.  Remember to bring your group presentation on the Natchitoches Field Trip.

If you missed today's test be ready to take it on Friday.

Progress Reports Sent Home

All students received a detailed progress report on Wednesday.  Only those with grades of C, D, or F must have them signed and returned.  All students signed and dated a roster stating that they received a detailed progress report for this class.  Of course, grades may be checked on JPAMS at any time. The lowest test and classwork grades have been dropped for each student and do not show on the progress report unless a lower grade later in the term causes the drop to move.

Grades on JPAMS have been updated; lowest test dropped

Test 2.3 has been recorded. Please see JPAMS for your current grade.

Grades are up to date on JPAMS

Your current grade, including the binder check on Monday, is posted on JPAMS.

Drops Seem to be Correct

So far the drops that we have examined today in JPAMS appear to be correct.  Please let me know on Thursday if you find otherwise.

More about the drop

Since JPAMS does not accurately drop the most harmful grade I will do this manually at the end of the grading period.  For now I am removing the drop but YOU WILL get the drop at the end of the grading period.

Finished Fixing the Dropped Grades

I have completed fixing the dropped grades; please log on to JPAMS to see your grade.  JPAMS seems to drop the lowest percentage grade regardless of the weight.

Addendum:  I am told JPAMS is working to add an option to drop the lowest grade based on points but has not assigned a date to this enhancement.

Fixing the Dropped Grades

I am about to redo the dropped grades in JPAMS.  For a few minutes the lowest grade will not be dropped.  Please check JPAMS around 5:00 p.m. for an accurate grade.  I apologize in advance for any inconveniences or mistaken automatic phone calls (and accompanying concerns) this may cause.

Problem with the drop in JPAMS

I noticed this morning that the drop in JPAMS is not working as expected.  It should drop one test and one classwork grade.  Instead it is dropping two in one category and none in the other for some students.  I am looking into the problem and will post here when it is resolved and accurate average grades are online.

Drop Applied

I have applied the drop to your grades (one for tests, another for classwork, none for projects) on JPAMS, so your actual course grade is now on display.
