Software Component Engineering Course Grading Criteria:
Homework Assignments

Feedback on other homework assignments will be based on the following general criteria as well as specific problem-related criteria:

• The answers are easy to read and easy to understand, in the sense that the writing/printing is legible, English is well-written, diagrams are well-drawn, etc.  (It generally helps to produce your solutions using a computer.)
• The answers are complete but concise and to-the-point.
• The answers are correct.
• Programs and program fragments meet the lab assignment grading criteria.
• The submission is generally of the high quality expected of a professional.

Some homework assignments may be graded on the simple scale of "acceptable" (or 1)/"unacceptable" (or 0). A carefully-graded homework assignment will receive one of the following marks:
 

Mark	Meaning	Points (%)
5	the solution meets all criteria well	100
4	the solution meets most criteria, but there is some room for improvement	80
3	the solution is just satisfactory; it meets some criteria but there is significant room for improvement	60
2	the solution is barely acceptable; there are serious shortcomings in meeting most criteria; it needs a lot of improvement	40
0	the solution is not acceptable	0
