Test taking is not easy for some first-years because of their general impatience with academic work. To be successful I have observed that students must ...
* Slow down and read questions carefully.
* Go back and check answers.
* When there are several answers that seem to be correct, be able to choose the one that is more directly true.
Classroom guidelines ...
* On open-notes tests, you may use a print-out from the web site, your in-class notes, your atlas, textbook and a dictionary.
* No communication between students during the test.
- no whispering, even if on a non-cheating sort of question.
- no passing of notes or other materials.
* raise your hand when you have a question of any sort. It will be answered by your teacher - in a whisper.
Penalty for ignoring guidelines: phone call to parent; point penalty.
On tests ...
* legibility.
* grammar and spelling.
* use examples in writing essays.
