\newcommand\gradingPolicy{Your final grade will be determined from the following:
Homework		20\%,
Wiki/Blogs		20\%,
Clinical/Consultations	15\%,
Exams/Presentations	45\%

The scale used to assign letter grades is:
Letter grade scale: A(93--100), A--(90--92), B+(87--89), B(83--86), B--(80--82), C+(77--79),
C(73--76), C--(70--72), D+(67--69), D(63--66), D--(60--62), F(<60)

Grade Reconciliation: Disagreements about penalties are to be addressed in writing clearly indicating the discrepancy. Please cite sources that support your position. 
Quizzes and Exams Activities: All related activities are closed notes and text. Special considerations should be presented before execution of activity.}
\newcommand\HWandLabPolicy{Homework submissions are required to be legible and of professional quality. There will be two homework assignments. Assignments are required to be submitted in PDF format via Blackboard.

Presentation: Students will independently present prescribed technical articles relevant to topics covered in this course (i.e. organ on a chip, optofluidics, etc.). This assignment requires the student to provide the following attributes.
•	Provide a 1-page summary of the article (i.e. 1000 words) submitted to Blackboard. 
•	Provide a half-page bibliography and BibTeX files submitted to Blackboard.  
•	Provide appropriate description/illustration and discuss device applications or technical relevance. 
•	The presentation should be 15-20 minutes long and include 5-10 Powerpoint slides that are submitted to Blackboard.

If recording is permitted as an ADA accommodation for a student, you obviously should not identify that student(s).)}}
