Traditional Lecture (Indianapolis)

The Indianapolis sections follow the traditional face-to-face lecture format on the Indianapolis campus. Lectures are recorded and available in the Kaltura Media Gallery on Brightspace as a backup, but recordings do not substitute for attendance — to earn attendance credit you must attend class in person.

Participation (8%)

  • Student profile (0.5%): submit your student profile by the due date.

  • Attendance (7.5%): attend at least 80% of classes, recorded using iClicker Cloud. Attendance is taken at the beginning of each class. Bring a smartphone or laptop to class for attendance.

Homework and computer assignments (24%)

Delivered through Edfinity, typically due Tuesday before midnight. Homework problems are automatically graded with multiple attempts allowed. Computer assignments use a provided data set and require R code, graphs, and written interpretation; they are hand-graded by TAs, normally by the Sunday after the deadline. The lowest score is dropped. Late work is accepted within 48 hours at a 20% penalty.

Exams (68%)

Two evening midterms (20% each) and a comprehensive final (28%), taken in person on the Indianapolis campus — room assignments are posted in Brightspace. One class day is cancelled to compensate for the evening exams: Tuesday, November 24 (marked on the schedule above). See Course Syllabus — Fall 2026 for dates, crib sheet rules, and makeup policy.

Accommodated testing (Indianapolis). If your DRC accommodations include test accommodations, release your Course Accommodation Letter to your instructor and schedule each exam through your DRC Student Portal at least two business days before the exam date.
