Assessments
“There is a strong environment of support in this class, a lot of it pertaining to group work. Nearly every day involves active participation; we work in small groups as we learn new topics and complete practice problems.”
– Cydney, Fall 2017.
Interactive Reading
Much of your homework will be completed through the interactive reading assignments on Canvas. Interactive reading includes short quizzes and discussion boards focused around reading passages. Some of these assignments count toward your overall grade and others are just for practice. You have multiple attempts on all quizzes.
Module Checkpoints
At the end of each Module in Canvas, you will have a Module Checkpoint. You are allowed three attempts on each Module Checkpoint.
Unit Checkpoints
Modules are organized into units on Canvas. After every three or four modules, you will have a Unit Checkpoint on Canvas.
Labs & Other Assignments
Additional assignments will include StatCrunch labs (completed on StatCrunch and Canvas), group work, and other activities. The StatCrunch labs are great practice for the unit projects.
Unit Projects
The unit projects will replace traditional exams in this course. Typically, a unit project covers two or more modules.
