* Monday lab group catches up on Sept. 26.
Note #1:
All case studies require either a full report (Maxi = 5%) or only the filling out of a form (Mini = 2%) to be handed in at the end of the lab. The full reports will be due one week after the session as indicated above. The time study test will be an in-lab test performed individually with the value of one full report (i.e. 5%)

Note #2:
Attendance at the sessions is a necessary part of group work and group grade. Thus, it is my policy that individuals who are absent (without a valid medical or other University approved excuse) will be penalized 50 pts. on the full reports or receive a 0 for the forms. It is important that all group members participate in the case study experience.
