\newcommand\gradingPolicy{The in-class course ECE 2430 and Lab component ECE 2431 will be taught in a highly integrated manner, with some homeworks amounting to Lab Projects.  Written \textbf{Homework} assignments will be posted on Blackboard, together with \textbf{Solutions}.  This work will not be graded, but student learning on each homework will be assessed by means of a 10-20 minute ‘in-class’ \textbf{Quiz}. Makeup Quizzes will not be offered.
\\
\\Tentative grade weightings will be as follows:
\\•	Quizzes		\hspace*{1.2cm}			80\% 
\\•	Final Project	\hspace*{0.2cm}			20\%
\\
\\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)}
\newcommand\HWandLabPolicy{As noted above, Homework assignments will be posted together with solutions so no submission is required. Please note, however, that to do well in the quiz requires actually  \textbf{doing} the homework and using the solutions  \textbf{only} when you get stuck rather than simply reading the solutions.

\newcommand\ElectronicsPolicy{\textcolor{red}{Since you opted for a customize electronics policy, you should edit this part. Your policy should address your general stance on recording of class sessions and the circumstances under which recording will be allowed or prohibited. If you generally prohibit recording, yet allow recording of certain classes for some reason, then ypu should notify all students that those classes will be recorded. If recording is permitted as an ADA accommodation for a student, you obviously should not identify that student(s).)}}
