The Unit Exam
will consist primarily of multiple choice questions. The total value is 100 points.
There are 25 questions each at 4 points. Most of the 25 questions consist of 4
or more possible questions in sets. Reminder: This Unit consists of
Lessons 1-4. The word Lessons refers
to Blackboard learning modules. Blackboard learning modules have a Table of
Contents on the left that let you see all of the resources available so you can
click on the one you want. All Lessons have links from your instructor and
sometimes additional resources such as maps. Note:
·
8 of the 25
questions come from the Learning Quizzes (and those concepts in the Learning
Quizzes help you understand the other content in the Unit)
·
17 of them come
from below.
The Unit Exam is available for 30 minutes, a time set
by the Department. Unit exams have the password onetimeonly. They display one
at a time and you cannot backtrack (return to an earlier question). The 5 Ws rule
is a good guide to understanding the items below: you should know Who, What,
When, Where, and Why—and
sometimes How. The Instructor’s links provide visuals, frequently in tables, to
help you compare facts to see similarities and differences. If you
need more than is in the Lessons on any specific issue listed here, just ask.
