Tips for quizzes
Here are some tips for dealing with the quizzes in the lectures. Since they are meant to “activate” you, you have to think about the question and what it is posing. 1. Don’t assume because it is “multiple choice” that there is one answer or a best answer. Go through all the possible answers and explain to yourself why each option works or does not work. The point is to reason with yourself. 2. Pay attention to the format of the question. There are two kinds of questions. The first are “radio button” questions: options are preceded by a little bubble. These questions only have ONE correct answer. The second are “checkbox questions:” options are preceded by a little box. Checkbox questions might have MORE than one possible answer and you can click on how many choices you think are correct. They may all be right! Be sure to read all of the answer choices before you submit your answers. This dual format is to dissuade you from getting robotic. If you are like me, and always behind or in a rush, you can sometimes try to solve a problem too quickly and therefore don’t process before “applying” knowledge. Believe me, when I first put myself through these quizzes (yes, I tried them), I got a lot wrong too because I was being too hasty! It won't take long to figure this out.
