AE108 - Fundamentals of Mathematics

Grading and Evaluation

Evaluation

 

Lesson Assignments

Lesson assignments make up 60% of the mid term grade and 50% of the final grade. Once you complete the lesson, and you feel you have an understanding of the material, then you are ready for the lesson assignment. Each assignment is made up of 20 multiple choice questions, based on the material in the lesson.

Chapter Tests

After you complete all the lessons for each chapter in the textbook, you will write a "Chapter Test". To help prepare you for these chapter tests, you can write a "Practice Test" put out by the publisher of the textbook. The link for the practice tests is shown at the end of the last lesson for each chapter. It is highly recommended that you try these practice tests before writing the actual test. Whenever you are ready, you may write the actual test by going to the link at the end of the lesson. The Chapter tests are worth 30% of your final grade.

If you enter your email address at the end of the test, it will be scored and the results will be emailed to you immediately. After completing the test, (and presumably doing well), you should continue on to the next lesson.

Final Exam

The material on the final exam will be based on the work in all six chapters.
