Specific
Tips for Content in Chapters 11 and 12 and for Chapter 13 through 15
· The objective part means methods that are machine gradable, such as multiple choice, true/false, ordering items, and matching items.
·
The written part means a good, competent factual
explanation of something in the history covered from Chapter 11 to Chapter 15.
– For this exam only, the questions will
all relate to the Constitution, to events
that led to its provisions, or to events that filled in or completed its
provisions
·
The objective part consists of 25 questions at 4
points each--but, for each question, fate could ask you any 1 of 4 or more
questions.
In other words, there are a minimum of 100 questions in the test.
· The written part is 1 question worth 40 points (20 for its content and 20 for whether you follow the 5 Good Habits for Evidence)—but there are multiple versions (3 only for this test) of the written test that I hand out.
· You have one hour for the two parts of the test.
· The questions are meant to be ones that are useful understanding about history. They will not be trick questions.
· The textbook
· InQuizitive – but not in the exact words of the InQuizitive questions
