Who is joining me?? Thought I might as well get the thread up and running early!

Look over your answers. I'm challenging a question about the definition of illiteracy. Two of the answers are correct IMO. I'll let you know what happens.

Thanks, OK will do.

I sent an e-mail about the very same question. That whole quiz was tricky, if you ask me, and I mean splitting hairs/inconsequential-type tricky. Ugh.

here was the reply to my inquiry:

there were problems identified with the quiz, and in order to "fix" those problems the quiz was curved to a 60%. this means that the passing score was dropped to a 60% to take into account those questions which were incorrectly marked incorrect.

and there you have it........

that is crazy because we will still see a drop in our grade. they need to curve up with increasing everyone's scores by 20% just like other classes do.

I know it hurts to watch that grade fall....after all that hard work. I'm afraid to take #3 for 12 chapters and no study guide...it's bull.

What kind of *$#@ is this? Unbelievable what is going on. Hate this class - like my TA - hate the class. Have most of that stupid teaching plan complete - just have to add in the rationale and one other thingy - can't remember! 2 more freaking weeks of this crap. And so glad to be doubling up with Family for the next 2 weeks. Will devote most of my time to Family.

I saw we have 40 minutes to take that test....meaning it must have a lot of questions. Now I have to go thru the chapters :banghead:

Yuck! They made an icky class even worse!

I didn't even check mine. Hand washing is not that complicated! Can't wait to do the eval on this class!

I just posted my concern about the quiz on the QA board. It's on the entire book! *****
