Lab 7 Grading Guideline

Automatic Grades of 0 awarded for the following reasons:
[1] If the student's .java files do not appear in the submission.  
[2] If the code does not compile.  
[3] If the code does not run. 


[A] UML Diagram & Attendance (20%)
UML diagram submitted and shows overall design.

(3 points) [A1] Shows the "behavior" classes.

(3 points) [A2] A "double" behavior class is included.

(3 points) [A3] Includes a new bacteria class that extends from
				one of the lab7lib.shapes class.

(3 points) [A4] Shows other relevant classes to the project.

(8 points) [A5] Student present at Lab 7 session (Week of 3/17).




[B] Design/Style (37%)

(12 points) [B1] Students have created an interface for the behaviors of 
                 the bacteria (4 points).  This interface should have one 
                 method that is called when the bacteria need to be updated 
                 (4 points).  This method should take as a parameter the  
                 bacteria class that the student's created (4 points).

( 5 points) [B2] There is a Null Object.  Students have a class that 
                 implements the Behavior interface, but is a "do nothing" 
                 behavior.

(10 points) [B1] Uses the composite design pattern.
                  i.e. - a class that can perform 2 behaviors is composed to get
                  the multi-behavior.  Composites that compose more 
                  than two behaviors should receive 0 points.
                  
(10 points) [B2] Uses inheritance appropriately to create new bacteria class.



[C] Functionality (43%)

 (5 points) [C1] There is a class that models the Petri Dish and can
				be run as an application.

(12 points) [C2] Each of the behaviors work properly (3 points each)
                 Color Changing
                 Turning
                 Breathing
                 Random Movement
                 

 (6 points) [C3] Menu appears and allows user to select current 
                 behaviors without creating a bacterium.

(10 points) [C4] Behaviors work in single(6) or in multiples (10).

(10 points) [C5] Clicking any bacterium makes it take on the behavior 
				 currently selected in the menu.

DEDUCTIONS 
[D] Null Pointer Exceptions (15 points maximum deduction)
BEFORE any other menu items are selected, selecting the "Create" button
should not cause any NullPointerExceptions.  The exact 
behavior of the student program at this point does not matter, but an 
Exception should not be thrown.  Also, at no other time while their code 
is running should a NullPointerException be thrown.  If a NullPointer is 
thrown at either time, 15 points should be deducted from the student's 
score.

[E] Style (20 points maximum deduction) If the submitted code
does not meet the given criterion, it should be deducted the appropriate

(5 points)[E1]  Code uses proper tabbing and whitespace for 
                readability.

(5 points)[E2]  Naming of classes, methods, and variables are meaningful 
                to the project.

(5 points)[E3]  Naming conventions for classes, methods, variables, 
                parameters are following according to CSE 115 styles.

(5 points)[E4]  Every class, instance variable, and method is commented 
                with its purpose in the project.



GIVING FEEDBACK
You must e-mail a feedback/grade message to each student whose work you
grade. You will ONLY e-mail to the student's cse e-mail account, which
is username@cse.buffalo.edu.

The subject line will be: CSE115 Lab 7 Grade and feedback

A copy of this ENTIRE email with the bottom part filled in by you should be sent
 
to the student for their reference.

If a student receives less that the maximum number of points, you must
give an explanation of why the student lost points.
