OpenLab Assignment: Post Exam #1 Solutions

You can earn 2 participation points by posting a solution to one of the Exam #1 exercises. Follow these instructions:

  • Choose one of the Exam #1 exercises and create an image (jpeg) file of your solution:
  • If you are satisfied with the solution you handed in for your Exam #1, either take a photo of your hardcopy if you still have it, or take a screenshot of the electronic version you submitted.
  • If instead you want to write up a new solution to the exercise, write it up and take a photo.
  • Create a new OpenLab post; you can do by pressing on the “+” button at the top of the site and choosing “Post”
  • Title your post as “Exam #1 Solution: Exercise #[number]”
  • Add the image to your post: hit the “+” button on the RHS below your title for “Add block”; find the “Image” block, which will allow you to upload your image
  • Under “Document / Categories” click “Exam 1 Solutions”
  • Hit the “Publish” button

I demonstrated this process in class on Wednesday (Nov 18). You can view the Exam #1 solutions your classmates have already posted under that category.

Quiz #3: Take-home quiz (due Sunday Nov 8)

Quiz #3 is another take-home assignment, due Sunday (Nov 8). You can download the pdf with the quiz exercises from OpenLab Files.

Like the previous quizzes, you should submit your solutions on Blackboard as a single pdf file (I will create a “Quiz #3” Assignment shortly).

Instructions are the same as for the previous quizzes:

  1. Write out your solutions. If you have access to a printer, you can print out the Quiz pdf and write your solutions in the spaces provided. But it’s fine to write your solutions on a blank piece of paper. For the latter, you don’t need to rewrite the statements of the exercises, but please write your solutions in order (show all your work!) and number/label them; you however will need to sketch the graph of the function.
  2. Scan your written solutions to a single pdf file (i.e., not a jpeg!). There are number of free smartphone apps you can use to scan to pdf. Some popular ones are Cam Scanner, Microsoft Office Lens, Adobe Scan, and Genius Scan (see here). If you have a Google or Dropbox account, you can use the Google Drive app or the Dropbox app to scan and save the pdf to the cloud.
  3. Upload your pdf to the Quiz #3 Assignment on Blackboard.
  4. If you choose do the extra credit exercise using Desmos, you can submit your graph as a png image file (submit as a separate file from your pdf).
