The Self Assessment is a brief (approximately two-page) document that clarifies what final course grade you believe you have earned and why, based upon class achievement (rather than difficulties encountered due to the weather closures).

If you were unable to devote as much time and effort to course assignments as you would have preferred, this is an opportunity to discuss how you have re-engaged with the corresponding material and what you have learned from it. If you missed a minor assignment, convey how you have absorbed what it covered. Show aspects of your overall class performance that your grade currently does not reflect.

In order to obtain any extra credit, you must share your assessment with the instructor in an individual conversation that will occur during the course's final exam period; a document alone will not earn any points. You should bring a printed copy of your assessment to the final exam period to give to the instructor.

This Self Assessment can be considered to be an overarching extra credit opportunity. It is capable of adding up to 20 points to your final total, which is equivalent to a full letter grade.
