Introduction and How to Use Its Quizzes to Save Time in Learning Tips: What
Helps Learning? from the FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) |
Title of Chapter 1: The Collision of Cultures
in the 16th Century
InQuizitive’s Focus on What You Should Be
Able to Do After You Finish Chapter 1:
1. Explain why there
were so many diverse human societies in the Americas before Europeans arrived.
2. Summarize the major
developments in Europe that enabled the Age of Exploration.
3. Describe how the
Spanish were able to conquer and colonize the Americas.
4. Assess the impact of
the biological exchange between the “Old” and “New” Worlds.
5. Analyze the legacy of
the Spanish form of colonization on North American history.
A Basic Quiz in Sets (There are 20 questions
behind the 5 displayed)
Unlike other chapters, there is a
Basics quiz included with Chapter 1. It applies to all chapter and both terms. I
am trying to prevent students losing points because they didn’t know these
things before they write.
Chapter 1’s quiz (There are 20 questions
displayed at one time.)
It emphasizes:
·
Vocabulary (what’s sometimes called
“discipline-specific” language) that you need to know
·
Information to help you with the
required primary source
·
Information that was not covered
directly in InQuizitive but that may help you understand the content and avoid
assumptions
How
to Use InQuizitive and the Instructor’s Quizzes to Save Time in Learning
InQuizitive is an
interactive learning resource that you can stop and start if needed. You use both InQuizitive and the Instructor’s
quiz multiple times, with the highest score counting.
You can use both:
1.
At the beginning to
determine what you know and don't know so you can work efficiently
2.
As you read and use
resources to be sure you are understanding correctly (and to improve your
score)
3.
When you are about
to take the Unit Exam to refresh your memory
What
Is Different About Chapter 1 Instructor’s Quiz
Usually the questions
are in sets. For example, this quiz of 20 questions would become 5 sets. I made
all questions visible because of the importance of the definitions included. It
seemed more useful to learning to do the questions where you could see all of
the definitions at once. If you miss a question, go to the definitions in the
Primary folder.
