Quizzes – Posted on Blackboard under Assessments
Question banks – usually contain most of the questions that may be used on the graded quiz
Print out and work each question in the question bank. Submit your answers
in Blackboard to check your answers . Questions can be algorithmic, meaning the data numbers
can change each time you take the quiz.
Practice quizzes – in the same format as the graded quizzes and timed
Practice quizzes will consists of only 4 questions, worth 1 point each and are usually taken from
the question bank
Practice quizzes are timed so you can accustom yourself to working under time pressure
IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU TAKE THE PRACTICE QUIZZES AS YOU WOULD
A GRADED QUIZ. In other words, do not print these out and work them leisurely.
Practice quizzes are “graded” for feedback only and do not count as part of your course grade.
Take the practice quiz many, many, many times improving your score and decreasing your time.
Graded quizzes –consist of 4 questions worth 1 point each and are timed
Graded quizzes can be taken only once and must be completed by the due date and time.
Graded quizzes will be available in a 24 hour “window” only, beginning 24 hours before the due
date and time.
Question banks and practice quizzes become unavailable one hour before the graded quiz
“window” begins.
Due dates for assignments, quizzes, and homework are posted on my website.
