<aside> 🌿 Throughout the semester we will devote a lot of time and energy toward collaboratively learning to think and behave like scientists. Points will reflect my assessment of your progress toward achieving this — among other — goals. The total possible number of course points is 1000. They are distributed as shown in the table below.

With that being said, I want to strongly emphasize that this class is about learning, not receiving a grade.
