Test corrections & resetting policies
*CORRECTIONS MUST BE COMPLETED WITHIN 2 WEEKS OF THE ASSESSMENT BEING SUBMITTED/GRADED.
Quick Checks You can check your answers for most quick checks. You can watch this video to see how to check your answers on quick checks. Quizzes I will reset any quiz (one time per quiz) for a student to retake it. It must be taken as soon as I reset it because you will not be able to move ahead until the quiz is completed. Tests Any student who earns less than 80% can submit test corrections. Students must submit them by WebMail with the name of the test as the subject. Please list each question number in the webmail (only for the questions that you didn't get full credit for) along with the answer you chose and a good description of why it was the wrong answer. Then please tell me what the correct answer is and a detailed explanation of why that's the correct answer. I need to see evidence that you understand the material, so just telling me that it's right or wrong is not enough. Students who do test corrections can only earn up to 80% with their corrections. Portfolios I will accept corrections on all portfolios, no matter the score. Please send your corrected portfolio to my webmail with any edits that needed to be made. Want more specific examples of how to do test corrections? Watch the recording of our test correction live lesson. Check your grades! Please check your grades weekly so you can make test corrections on time. Here is a video to show you how to check your grades. |
test correction examples:
#2. I chose diversity and location. This is the wrong answer because diversity does not have the same meaning as safety. safety means that there are houses in every corner so people stay safe and not a house here and then another house 11 miles away. Also location does not have the same meaning as goal does. Goal means that a society has a result they would like to have. Like if there is gold found in a mountain the goal would be to help the miners.
#3 I picked John that was wrong because John lives on a farm and urban means a city and not a farm so Kate is the right answer because if she rides the subway she lives in a city.
#6 To conserve means to save and not to change. I picked to try and change the land and conserve means not to change it but to save it. So the right answer is to protect the land as it is.
#8 I picked the wrong answer because information does not have the same meaning as distance. Distance is a kind of information it shows how far or close. I picked smaller instead of larger, larger is correct because it is not shrunk down as much. It is closer to the real size.
#10 My answer was wrong because it didn't show anything specific. Here are some specific examples of the answers-
Humans can interact with the environment by fitting in with the environment. Like if they built a house near a forest they would only cut down as many trees as they needed to not cut them all down.
One way a human can adapt is if you lived in the desert you would plant grass on your roof to keep cool, you wouldn't do that if you lived in the Arctic.
One way a human can modify is when they put a dam on a river. It makes a lake and changes the river downstream.
