Study Notes
Exam Details
- The exam is 40 multiple-choice and true/false questions
- Each question is worth 2.5 points, totaling 100 points
- Students need a No. 2 pencil and a maroon scantron form (29240)
- The exam covers material from the start of the semester to December 1st
- The exam questions will not be identical to the study guide or Connect questions, but some might be similar
- The exam includes questions that assess various levels of Bloom's taxonomy, including many requiring critical thinking skills
How to Study
- Active studying: Focus on recalling information, not just recognizing it
- Quiz yourself: Use note-taking, visuals (like using Napkin.ai ),or language models (such as ChatGPT) for generating questions
- Avoid relying heavily on Google: Utilize course materials like the textbook, PowerPoint slides, peers, and lecture notes
- Use writing and study groups: Review concepts with peers
- Use flash cards: Create flashcards for terms, focusing on the meaning rather than just definitions
- Quiz yourself on concept questions: Attempt answering concept questions without notes; review missed or unclear questions to understand the context better
- Metacognitive study habits: Explore metacognitive techniques for improved learning strategies to enhance studying.
