Every four weeks there is an assignment review (the end of each unit of instruction). This includes the presentation of the required assigned work in front of the class.

The showing of extra or additional work demonstrating, your understanding of the material may result in "B" and "A" grades. This work is to be mounted for fromal presentation.
