Part 1

Post due Sunday, December 8

The final exam will cover all topics that we covered this semester. It will have 10 questions (some questions will have multiple parts). You can see the types of questions you’ll be asked on the final exam review sheet (you should become an expert on all question on the final exam review sheet) and on the Final Exam Review set in WeBWorK.

You might find the final exam is longer than our term tests, so you will want to practice completing problems as quickly as possible.

For Part 1 of the review assignment, you will make up your own final exam. Choose 10 questions from the review sheet or WeBWorK set (or make up your own!). If a question has a short solution, make it part (a) of a problem and choose another question with a short solution for part (b) (part (a) and part (b) need not be related). You will not solve your problems at this point.

Share your final exam as a post on the OpenLab. You can upload a photo of your hand-written set of questions or share a link to a Dropbox/Google Drive/etc where you have uploaded a photo.

Part 2

Comment due Sunday, December 15 (complete this part early)

Set a timer for 1 hour 40 minutes and put your phone away. Take out your calculator and some pieces of blank paper. Take one of your classmate’s practice finals as if it were the actual final exam. When the timer goes off, stop writing.

Upload a photo of your hand-written work the OpenLab media library/ Dropbox/Google Drive/etc and then copy-paste the link into a comment on your classmate’s post.

(You should actually give yourself several of your classmates’ practice exams to prepare for December 18! Taking practice exams will show you which topics you’re ready for and which ones you’ll need to practice more.)

Part 3

Comment due Sunday, December 15

For anyone who took the practice exam that you posted, look through their solutions and grade their exam. Assign a grade out of 10 for each problem (100 points total). Offer helpful suggestions about what parts were done well and what parts your classmate should practice more; correct any errors you catch. Be nice!
