• Reinforce the concepts in recent classes and readings.
• Assess individual student understanding of recent topics/skills.
• Encourage class preparation.

Each quiz will take about 5 minutes at the beginning of class. It will contain 1-3 short questions based on recent class discussions and readings.

Frequency, Grading, and Missed Quizzes:

There will be a quiz every Tuesday, unless announced otherwise. The quiz will focus on the previous week's materials. Each student's lowest two quiz grades will not be counted toward their final grade. Thus, there WILL BE NO MAKEUP quizzes. Any missed quizzes will be counted as zeros in the grading scheme above. Thus, if you miss more than two quizzes, all additional missed quizzes and all other quiz grades will be counted toward your final grade.
