Pre and Post Course Assessments
Fri 22Aug2008 2:11PM
To help us assess how well you learn this material, and how well we are teaching it, you will be given a concise multiple-choice test of your understanding of basic electrical and magnetic physics during the first lab session (Aug. 27, 28) and during your last lab session (Dec. 10, 11) schedule). At the end of the semester we will give you your scores on both tests. By comparing them you, and we, will be able to see how much you have learned about electricity and magnetism from this course. It is important that you attend both your first and last lab sessions to take these tests.
If you complete BOTH test, you will receive an additional 10 points. These will be added to your point total after grade cut offs have been set!
