Two evaluation surveys –
Please take time to do both!
You should have received two separate survey email requests:
• One was from Professor Schmidt (via Pearson)
– This one is an evaluation of the Math 010/110 Teaching
and Learning Center structure. This will help us evaluate
our course setup, software, tutor lab, TAs, and online
grading/assignments/learning aids.
• The other was from Dr. Chris Bendel, MSCS dept. chair
-- This one is an evaluation of the teacher of your Math 010
or 110 class section. This will give feedback to the department and
to your own teacher about how you rate the effectiveness of instruction in
your particular class section.
Your feedback on both of these surveys will be very
helpful to us in evaluating and improving our teaching
methods and the Math TLC program – THANK YOU!!!

Final Exam Review Materials:
There are two review homework assignments.
These are each worth 8 points, vs. the usual homework assignment of 4 points.
• Unit 1 review homework (Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4, 8)
Due at the start class today (thurs., April 28)
• Unit 2 review homework (Chapters 5, 6, 7, 10, 11)
NOTE: You must get at least 80% on the Unit 1 Review before you can start
the Unit 2 review. Due at 8 a.m. next Monday May 2 (first day of finals).
• Practice Final Exam
NOTE: You must get at least 80% on the Unit 2 Review before you can start
the Practice final. Due at the start time of your scheduled final exam period.
More info about the Practice Final:
• The practice final has 45 questions, as does the regular final exam.
The questions will NOT be exactly the same as those on the regular
final, but they will be similar in content and are distributed across
sections the same way as on the regular final. Each time you take
the practice final you will get a different set of questions.
• EXTRA CREDIT OPPORTUNITY: Your highest score will earn you
that percentage of 20 extra credit points on the final, so it will pay
off if you can find the time to take it more than once.
• You CAN stop the time clock on your practice final by closing the
window without submitting the test. You can then come back and
finish it later, and any answers you’ve already entered will be saved.
• REMINDER: You must get at least 80% on both Final Exam Review
HW assignments before you can start the practice final.
100%
• Completing those HW assignments to
will prepare you
much better for the final, however… And it will get you the full 8 HW
points for each one (16 total), so you’ll have more of a cushion going
into the final exam.
Final Exam Review,
Part 2
Part 2 of the Final Exam Review HW covers:

exponents (especially negative exponents and scientific notation.).
