Resolves YES if the instructor/TA posts an official class average ≥ 70% for the midterm.

Resolves NO if an official average is posted and it’s < 70%.

If no official average is ever posted, resolve N/A.

Resolution Criteria

Resolves YES if the instructor or TA posts an official class average of 70% or higher for the ECE240 midterm exam.

Resolves NO if an official class average is posted and it is below 70%.

Resolves N/A if no official class average is ever posted by the instructor or TA.

Background

ECE240 is a core electrical and computer engineering course. Midterm exams in engineering courses typically serve as a checkpoint for student understanding of foundational material covered in the first half of the semester. Class averages on engineering exams vary depending on course difficulty, student preparation, and grading standards.

Considerations

The resolution depends entirely on whether the instructor chooses to publicly post an official class average. Some instructors may share this information via course announcements, email, or learning management systems, while others may not disclose it. If the average is only shared privately with individual students or in aggregate form that doesn't clearly state the mean, this would not qualify as an "official" posted average for resolution purposes.
