...Quizzes) The Concept Checkups are designed to evaluate how well you understand the information covered in assigned readings from the course textbooks, course modules, and classroom discussions. The Concept Checkups are found in WebTycho under Course Content - Course Resources under the heading Additional Resources. Each Concept Checkup contains ten (10) multiple-choice questions that are randomly pulled from a larger test bank of questions. The quizzes can be taken multiple times. Each time a quiz is taken, a new set of questions are generated. All ten questions must be answered before students can submit a quiz for grading. The first passing score (70+) will automatically post to the Portfolio. Although the quiz can be taken multiple times in this course, ONLY THE FIRST PASSING GRADE (70 or above) will be counted towards your final grade—the rest will serve strictly as final exam preparation. Please note that while the instructions before each Concept Checkup state "You may take the quiz as many times as you wish in order to improve your score or comprehensively test yourself", only the first passing grade (70+) will be posted to the Portfolio. Once you earn a passing grade, you can retake a concept checkup but higher scores will NOT count towards your grade.
