QUIZ INFO:
The normal process for taking quizzes is like this:
  • the student shows up to class
  • the instructor gives the quiz
  • the student has one chance to take the quiz
  • there is a 15-20 minute time limit
  • there is no use of the textbook / student notes
 My way for taking quizzes is like this:
  • give a 2 week time frame to get them done
  • you may retake each quiz up to 3 times for a better grade if the grade you receive the first or second time is not your best
  • you have a 2-hour time limit each time you take the quiz
  • you may use your textbook / notes
I can either use the normal process of taking a quiz, or use my way. If using my way, you will need to remember to take the quizzes within the 2 week time frame.
Quizzes CANNOT be re-activated so please DON'T EVEN ASK !!
