Homework #5 (due on Friday, July 16, 2021) MIDTERM 1 on this date in class.
Create a one page, front and back, review sheet which you may use
during the midterm exam which we take on this date. Turn in your review
sheet and the exam at the end of class.
1. The review sheet must be written by you in your handwriting.
2. The review sheet must be a physical (not digital) standard 8.5 x 11 inch piece of paper.
3. The review sheet must be created with a pen or pencil by you - no printouts or photocopies, even of your own handwriting.
4. While you should not just copy someone else's review sheet, after
making most of your review sheet on your own, you are encouraged to
compare your review sheet with other students for ideas about how to
make your review sheet better. The goal is to maximize learning for
everyone.
5. Make sure you include Table 6.2.1 in section 6.2 on your review sheet.
By writing small, you can get a great deal of information on your
review sheet. The process of deciding what goes on your review sheet,
as well as the process of actually transcribing it to your review sheet
with a regular pen or pencil is very educational for you. These are the
reasons for the above rules.
Make sure you take and study the practice exams at the top of this page to prepare for the exam as well. Good luck!
