Course Tests and Exams

Term tests are based on the additional readings exclusively, not the
text or lecture material. Each quiz test will consist on 4 short answer
questions. Each quiz takes 20 minutes (5 minutes per question).
Midterm and final exams include materials from lectures, including
group activities, required text and readings.
Each exams consists of 50 multiple choice (MC) questions. The
exams cover as representatively as possible the contents of
lectures, the assigned readings, and the assigned readings in the
textbook (you should not assume that the material covered in
lectures is more important than that covered in the textbook -- the
textbook actually contains more information than lectures, a fact
that will be reflected in exams). The exams are not cumulative. The
names of specific researchers are not of critical importance since
questions will provide sufficient information for the identification of
research. You must, however, familiarize yourself with the names of
important theorists.
