Quiz Info

Quizzes sample your understanding over the length of the course and may be a better indication of your progress than full hour examinations. They are primarily to gage your understanding of what you have read for the class.

  Quiz Rules

Quizzes typically are for five minutes from the time of start! If you come in late and a quiz is in progress, get a quiz sheet and quickly work on the ones you know best. You won't get extra time, and entering late a minute from the end leaves you only a minute to do something on the quiz.

Quizzes may not be made up later. If you have an excused absence, that quiz won't count in your average. If you don't have an excused absence, your score is zero, but how much it decreases the average depends on how many quizzes there are. If you were absent the preceding class, you might not be able to answer the question pertaining to the preceding class if the answer was not in your reading assignment.

  Quiz Suggestions

Quickly read the questions. You have only about four minutes or so after reading the questions, so answer the ones that you know best concisely. Try to get a line for each question, then go back to revise or extend the answer. If you must, continue on the back but point to the continuation so I'm certain to see it.

If there are two or more "?" for a question, you must have the same number of answers. If there are two parts and you only provide one answer, you lost half the points.

Note that the last feedback question gets points just like the quiz RE questions. These don't have right or wrong answers, and I need honest suggestions. A word or two will do. Note on your quiz that you were absent the previous class if you were excused and the lack of suggestions won't count against the grade.
