Quizzes

Starting with lecture 4, all lectures will have an associated short quiz.

 

Purpose

The purpose of these quizzes is to encourage the students to read the relevant material before each lecture. This is expected to make the lecture easier to follow, and enable a discussion rather than a monologue.

Format

Each quiz will be open for 2 days preceding the lecture. Reading notes will be assigned to each lecture/quiz. Each student may get slightly different questions from a bank of questions on each topic. It is not allowed to help other students with answering the quiz.

It is allowed to use the textbooks for reference when answering the quiz, but note that some questions may require that you combine information from different parts of the reading material in order to solve.

Grading

Each quiz has a maximum score of 5, and a score of 4 is required to pass. Each passed quiz gives the student 1 (one) additional bonus point for the final exam. Each quiz is only possible to take once, so do not open the quiz until you are sufficiently prepared. Your result on the quiz will not be made visible until after the deadline for that quiz.
