Your participation grade needs to be proportionate to the level you participated.....so it definitely needs to be higher.
This is one of the things that I found very different in the US when I transferred from the U of A - participation counts a LOT...anywhere from 15 to 25 percent in my classes..and as high as 50 percent in ONE of my classes (it was an online class and participation meant you had to post on the teachers blog and contribute to the online discussion). A lot of profs here in the USA take attendence..couldnt ditch class like at the U of A. I felt babied but it was easier to get points.
