2.4 Quizzes

The purpose of the quizzes is to encourage you to read and understand the material in the textbook prior to coming to class. The quizzes will be open notes. Taking notes helps most people learn the material they read or listen to in lecture. Plan on reading one chapter from the textbook prior to each 15 question quiz. The quizzes are closed book with hand written notes, so please take notes when you read the chapter. Bring your student number and a pencil.

• One quiz per chapter and a comprehensive quiz.
• All quizzes carry an equal weight.
• The quizzes are short 15 question mark-sense quizzes. Bring a pencil and an eraser to class. Normally the quiz will be given at the start of the class, but not always.
• Closed book.
• Open hand written notes.
• Please bring your Student Services Number. If it starts with the letter "A" code that column as a zero (0).
• The three lowest quiz scores will be discarded.
• There may be a time limit on the quizzes.

There will be no make up quizzes except for circumstances deemed exceptional by the instructor. If you arrive more than five (5) minutes past the start of the quiz, you will not be allowed to take the quiz. If you arrive late, you must finish your quiz prior to the last student that arrived on time. If you are going to miss a quiz because of a religious observation you will need to notify me at least one week in advance so that accommodations can be made for you to take the quiz early. Cheating is never acceptable. If you are caught cheating you will receive a score of -15 points for that quiz. This score will not be discarded. See the Student Code of Conduct for other possible outcomes.
