Note on mid-term examination

10/14/02

 

As announced in class, the mid-term will be given on two consecutive Tuesdays, 10/15/02 and 10/22/02.  It will be a combination of multiple choice questions and mini-essays.  The mini-essays will be time-limited, so it will be important to know material well so that you can write down central ideas and critical points quickly and concisely.

I have not yet made any additional changes to the list of key terms.  I would like to go over that list with you as a class.  In preparation for the first examination, you should know the key terms we have gone over in class.  The terms that currently have a plus sign (+) next to them in the list of key terms will be especially important, but there also will be some questions on other key terms that we have discussed in class.  Most of the questions will be on material that I have quite clearly identified as important in previous classes.
