Final Exam, 12:00 - 2:00 |
|
The all important grade
There will be two exams (25% each X 2 = 50%), mostly multiple choices, with a few short answers that are based mostly on my lectures and readings from the course web page. The final exam will not be cumulative, and will cover the lecture material starting from November 27. The value of the final exam will be the same (25%) as one of the semester exams. A term paper (25%) will be done on some topic of your choosing having to do with some aspect of fungi. The topic does not necessarily have to be a topic that we will be covering this semester. You can select any topic that you feel will be of interest. However, before starting your paper check with me to be certain that the topic will be appropriate. Please try to decide on a topic and discuss it with me as soon as possible. The paper should be between 8-12 pages and have a detailed bibliography.
