Reading Quizzes¶
Reading quizzes account for 20% of your course grade. Your lowest quiz score will be dropped.
Each weekly reading quiz is 15 questions, and you'll have 30 minutes to complete it — plenty of time if you've done the reading. You get two attempts, and we'll keep your highest score, so if you're not happy with your first try, give it another shot. The questions are pulled randomly from a larger bank, so your second attempt will likely have different questions. You won't be able to see the correct answers until after you've used both attempts (or the deadline passes), so no peeking between tries. Quizzes are open-note — use the readings, your notes, whatever helps. The quiz is due by 11:59 PM on Sunday of the quiz week — after that, it locks, and you won't be able to submit.
