Some clicker bonus points are up.

I have been messing with the grade book this morning, lots of cleanup and putting things together.
  1. Early clicker bonus points: for the three lectures A11, A12 and A13, you get one point for being registered. All but ten of you got at least one bonus point. Good.
  2. Semester bonus subtotal: right now it just counts up the clicker bonus points, but we have other bonus points coming in, so stay tuned. NOTE: bonus points on exam questions are up in the total for the exam. This means Exam 2.
  3. ..Exam 2 SMA: I have computed your bonus for question 46.
    1. one point for clicking, even if you had an incorrect answer.
    2. two points if you clicked in a basic, true answer.
    3. three points if you clicked in a complicated, true answer.
  4. Exam 2: this now adds up the "..Exam 2 scantron" and "..Exam 2 SMA" scores. It is your complete Exam 2 score.
  5. Total semester points is now activated. It adds up regular points right now, from HW, clicker and two exams, but not the bonus points yet. Still to come: one big chunk of points from the final.
Plus I re-arranged some of the rows to make it all look simpler.

Add up semester total (regular points) and semester bonus points subtotal, divide by 136, and look that up in the percentage column of the syllabus grades table. That will give you an idea where you are grade-wise right now, if I were to calculate semester grades today.
