Beginning on Day 3, there will be a weekly quiz approximately every Tuesday that checks for understanding of class terms from the previous week.
Time limits: The standard time allowed for each quiz is 5 minutes, but students are given 10 minutes to complete it if they began the quiz on time. The quiz end time is the same for all students, regardless of quiz start time (students must arrive to class on time in order to receive the full allotted time).
Notes: Hand-written notes may be used, but pre-quiz studying is required due to the time limit, and is the responsibility of the student.
Logistics: There are spaces for your name and section time at the top of each quiz answer sheet. I hope it goes without saying that you should fill out the name space with your first and last name (whatever you chose for Wiser/Canvas) and fill out the section time with the time your section meets. Not doing these basic things will result in grade deductions. You should use a pen with blue or black ink to answer your quizzes. If pencils or pen colors other than blue or black result in the scanner misreading your answer, you may incur deductions.
Makeup policy: Quizzes may not be made up due to low scores or absences, but the lowest 2 quiz grades will be dropped at the end of the semester. Students who miss or fail multiple quizzes may choose to take the final exam (no notes) to replace the quiz average grade.
Quiz grades will be posted as soon as possible, usually within 48 hours of the quiz day. Completed quizzes are not viewable without oversight; please schedule an office hours visit to see what you got right and wrong on your quiz. Make sure your request adheres to the email requirements.
