Dr. Ireland's JCC Class Blog

Finalized grades are posted to the JCC website, any errors at this point will require a grade change form.

There was a small error in the original spreadsheet that affected the grades.  It really doesn’t make a big difference, but does change three grades.  Here is the revised grade sheet.

Below is the link to the PDF of the final grades for the term.  Please check this for any errors.  The grades will go live on JCC servers tomorrow.

BIO131 Final Grades

Below is a link to the PDF with the final grades for BIO220.  Please review the materials for any errors.  The final grades will go live tomorrow in the JCC system.

Final Grades BIO220 FS09

A recent article in the Proceeding of the National Academy of Sciences (link) shows evidence of Bacillus-like sporulation in Mycobacterium species.  This would be a tremendous finding if confirmed by other scientists.  It also goes to show that even the organisms we think we know extremely well might still have some real zingers up their sleeves.

Here is the penultimate grade sheet for BIO220.  Please note there are the outstanding presentation grades and the sixth assignment grade.  At this time no assignment grades have been dropped (since we are assuming a ‘0′ for assignment 6 right now).  The grades will be updated tomorrow night and then posted Thursday afternoon, please go through them for errors before then.

BIO220 grades

Here are the penultimate grade sheets for BIO131.  The first is the traditional format with the totals for each category.

Grade Totals (131)

The next two are detailed breakdowns of all the grades I have for you.  Entries that are blank are either the dropped grade (see Excluded Score) or ones that I do not have.  If you only have a single blank in the area it is the excluded score, if you have more than one blank I do not have that entry for you and if this is a mistake you should either bring me the graded work or forward the original email from your “sent email” folder.  It is your responsibility to proof you grades.

Before you guys start asking me questions about what you “need,”  wait till class.

I have to cancel office hours this morning due to a  doctor’s visit for my daughter.  Contact me by email if needed.

Here is the MP3 file for Thursday’s class.  I am still fiddling with the settings on the new recorder, so it is a little large, sorry about that.
