Hi,
I am currently taking FON 241 @ Rio, and have had a good experience so far. I like my instructor and feel that she is very helpful. I looked in the archives to see if there were any threads recently regarding FON 241 midterms or finals. Most posts were from several years back. Has anyone recently taken this course through Rio that can offer advice on the best way to prepare for midterm and final. I have the midterm coming up, which is in person, and want to ensure I am really prepared. My teacher advised that I should focus my studying on the objectives listed on each lesson, as well as know the content of all possible AYL essays.
Any tips/advice/experience etc... would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance!

@ back2skool I start FON 241 on Monday and I noticed the exams are 3hrs long! Omg I'm nervous and wondering if it's open book or are notes allowed? Please let me know what experience you had! Thanks and good luck!
Well the midterm was long and challenging, but not bad. I believe the reason why it wasn't too hard is because I did do all the required reading and assignments. If you do that, and understand it, and pay attention to what your instructor tells you to focus on (i.e.: objectives etc..) when studying, it should go ok. It is interesting material to learn, which makes it easier. Hope that helps. Just don't try any shortcuts to the learning and I think you will do well.
etd. Oh sorry, forgot to let you know it is not open book or open notes.

I took a class at rio Salado and the midterm and final were killer! I would memorize quiz and practice quiz questions because they usually repeat them on the midterm and final. Memorize all of the AYL options because they come from those so that is a good way to get points. Also, understand the objectives in depth, not just definitions.

I'm currently studying for fon 241 final, and I'm very nervous. I'm very busy with my newborn and I barely get time to study. I'm doing all the cengagebrain practice exams and there are 16 essays to review. I want to know if anyone has any suggestion for the final exam essays or any other helpful information to help me for the final. Thanks in advance.
Did you took your final exam?
