  3. Reviewing for Quiz 1

  4. IMPORTANT: • Be on time so you’re logged in and ready to go when I give you the password. • Bring your • POWER CORD • PENCILS • SHOW ALL OF YOUR WORK on the answer/worksheet provided so that we can award partial credit for partially correct work or typos.

  5. Preparing for the Quiz: 1. Review the homework from all five Chapter 1 homework assignments using the “Gradebook” function: • Click on the “Gradebook” menu button • Go to desired HW section, select “Review You can review homework problems even after the deadline has passed. This is a great way to study for quiz, since all problems on the quiz and practice quiz will have been selected from the homework assignments,

  6. Preparing for the Quiz: 2). Take the Practice Quiz (under Quizzes and Tests, Practice Quiz 1). The practice quiz has the same number of problems as the real quiz, and has similar problems and will give you a chance to see the difference between doing problems in a homework setting vs. a timed quiz with no “help” or “check answer” functions. Each time you take the practice quiz you’ll get a different set of questions (not just different numbers in the same questions), so taking it multiple times will make it more likely that you’ll have seem most of the types of problems that will be an the actual quiz. 3). Review your daily class notes and/or the online lecture slides (under “Course Home” Link to Math 010 course Materials ).

  7. You can take the practice quiz as many times as you want, and the computer will generate new problems for you each time. You don’t need a password to access the practice versions of tests and quizzes. Your best practice quiz score WILL count a small percentage in your overall course grade. After each try, you can review your quiz and see how to do the problems you got wrong.(Come to the open lab if you need help.)

  8. Why you should take advantage of the opportunity to take the practice versions of quizzes and tests:

  9. Why you should keep taking the practice quiz until you can score at least 90%: (A) (B+) (almost a C-) (low F)

  10. REMINDERS: • Take the practice quiz early enough so you’ll have time to review it, retake it, come into the open lab for help if needed. • Review each practice quiz after you submit it.(The “help me solve this” buttons will appear when you review the quiz) • You have unlimited attempts, so retake the practice quiz until you score at least 90% • If you score < 90%, come into the open lab to review your quiz with a TA. (Or just take the practice quiz in the open lab to start with …)

  11. Do any of you who have already started the Practice Quiz 1 have any questions you’d like to have explained? (There will also be a few minutes to ask questions on this at the next class session before we start the quiz.)
