ITC week 1: During class today, please take your midterm exam on ECampus. You'll see it show up after or during the morning meeting. It's multiple choice, 25 questions. Though there are two attempts available, do not use your second attempt without permission.
There are also the two corresponding "bonus" quizzes - worth 2.5% each - which are also multiple choice, 10 questions each. Please take these as well if you did not yesterday. You can also retake these quizzes for a better mark if you were unhappy with yesterday's result. I allow you to take the quizzes twice, but there is a 24-hour waiting period before you can try again.
Next week, you will be continuing with your assignments and completing your second study guide. The final exam and bonus quizzes 3 + 4 will be taken next Friday, the final day of your course.
ITC week 2: Take your final exam on ECampus, and quizzes 3 and 4. Submit your assignments via email and/or via ECampus by 4pm.
KBD: Finish the seven tests, either those that go with Paradigm and the textbook OR those from the Keyboarding without Paradigm document. Screenshot your results. Enter your results in the Grades Tracker. Submit the complete tracker + screenshots as email attachments by 4pm.
OSK week 1: Continue with your assignments. If you're not sure which topic to choose for your presentation, send me an email with your ideas and I can help you narrow it down.
OSK week 2: You have your final exam today. It's on ECampus. Simply click to begin. Please take it within class time today - it allows four hours. As I showed yesterday, the majority of the test is multiple choice and true/false. A few questions at the end, the short answer questions, require that you download a form (for example, a telephone message form), fill it in, and email it to me.
MSW, MSE, MSP: Carry on in Pearson. If you are having technical issues, please reach out. If your course ends today, make sure you submit your filled-in Grades Tracker by 4pm.
