The Objective Exam will consist primarily of multiple choice questions drawn from the
terms below. The total value is 100 points. There are 25 questions each at 4
points. Reminder: Unit 2 consists of Chapters 20-24. The word Chapter refers to numbered parts a) of your
textbook and b) to the specific Blackboard learning module for that chapter.
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
chapters have links from your instructor and a folder containing specific
primaries. Some also include resources such as maps.
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. You can look up these
individual items in the textbook index at the back of the book or find them
covered next to an item listed below. Instructor’s links provide visuals, usually
in tables, that let you compare information so you can quickly see similarities
and differences (such as items 28-31).
The list of items that will
be on the test will be visible about 10 days before the exam. If you don’t
see it at that point, please remind me. |
The Concept Exam will consist of a variety of types of questions
ranging from multiple choice questions to short essay. The total value is 50
points. The Required Concepts folder contains a list of all concepts, including
which apply to Unit 2. I will explain in class any concept that will be on the
exam. (FYI: I create my tests in sets so they vary for students.)
The Written Exam will consist of 1 essay written in class on notebook
paper I will provide. You bring your textbook because you must cite the page
number for each fact you use. I will grade your answer side by side with the
textbook—I will know easily whether you read and wrote with care. The total
value is 50 points with 25 points for contents and 25 points for following all
5 Good Habits for Evidence. I will state the possible questions during our
talks together in class. You will then know all possible questions, but you
will not know which one you will be asked on your exam. (FYI: I create my tests
in sets so they vary for students.)
