Rules regarding Study Island assignments are as follows:
grading information
For each blue ribbon earned, you will earn 10 points.
If you demonstrate that you at least attempted the work, but do not receive a blue ribbon, you will receive from 1 to 9 points – depending on the quality of your work and the amount of time you spent on the assignment.
If you do not complete a Study Island assignment on time, you will receive a zero. If you do not complete at least 10 questions on a given anchor, you will receive a zero.
If you score 90% or higher on an anchor and have completed a minimum of 25 questions on that anchor, you will earn 3 extra credit points.
general information
You are expected to work on Study Island during any free time that you have in school. You may also work on Study Island assignments at home. When you have achieved a Blue Ribbon for all anchors, you are finished with that assignment. You may then try to improve your score to earn extra credit.
If you do not have Internet access at home, see me immediately so that we can make sure you have a computer to use at school.
Grades will be calculated on the final due date of each assignment. You have weeks to complete each assignment. There are no extensions. Do not wait until the last day to begin your work.
If your work on a topic is extremely poor and you are unable to earn the blue ribbon, send me a message. I will gladly help by resetting your test so that you can try again.
Study Island assignments give EVERYONE who CHOOSES to work the opportunity to improve his/her grades. Study Island will be the only extra-credit given in your math class this year.
