Midterm Assessment/Additional Exam Module | Midterm Exam Information and Instructions | Midterm Exam Information and Instructions:My personal preference would be to avoid formal examinations and use informal and more personal methods of assessing your understanding and comprehension of chemistry. However, I am required to account to you and to (School Name) regarding your performance. Hence, I will give two formal exams (Midterm and Final). You will be challenged to understand and apply the concepts. Sure, you will use equations and formulas, but they will serve to illustrate concepts rather than to test your mathematical skills. You can use any printed resources that you choose including textbooks and formula sheets. You can use a calculator. You are not allowed to use a phone, tablet, or any URLs. Your Midterm Exam is due by 11:59pm on TBA You will have ( # hours) to complete the Midterm Exam. Type your work in the exam space provided. Do not email your work to me. You must show your work to receive credit. No credit will be given for correct or incorrect answers if work is not shown. Make sure to follow all instructions included with each problem. The Midterm Exam is worth 100 points. Point values are indicated with each question. I will provide scoring feedback for your exam(s) NLT one week after the exam due date. It is essential that you submit exams on time. Makeup examinations will NOT be given without legal documentation warranting absence (i.e. doctor’s excuse, obituary, judge’s orders, etc.). |
