COURSE ASSESSMENTS
This course contains ungraded video chapter questions, reading quizzes, and discussion activities. Verified learners also have access to a graded final exam.
VERIFIED LEARNERS: The discussion activities count for 50% of your final grade, and the final exam counts for the other 50%. The Final Exam consists of information from all of the lectures and readings. You must pass with a 70% or above to receive your Verified Certificate.
Whether or not you are pursuing a certificate, you are encouraged to complete all of the ungraded assessments, as they are your opportunity to gauge how well you understand the material. Each video chapter will have a series of corresponding comprehension questions, and each module has one reading quiz based on the required readings. You will have two attempts at each question if it has multiple answers, and only one attempt if the question has only two answers or is true/false.
Discussion Activities
Activities in ask you to engage with the content in a new way. Each activity involves several steps--reviewing an assigned resource, answering an Activity Question, posting to an Activity Discussion Board, and responding to another learner's posts.
VERIFIED LEARNERS must complete a "Part 2": You must answer two Participation Questions to receive credit for completing the Activity.
Final Exam (Verified Learners only)
As mentioned above, the final exam will combine information from all the lectures and readings. For the final exam, please remember:
- You will be allowed only two attempts to select the correct answers for multiple choice and “check all that apply” questions.
- You will be allowed only one attempt at the correct answer for True/False questions or multiple choice questions with just two answers.
