The FYS Common Exam is set up in the same way as it was in fall and spring 2019 (for those of you who taught then).\u00a0 For those of you who didn’t teach last year or others who just need a little refresher – rather than the exam being set up as a TEST in Blackboard, it is set as an ASSIGNMENT (even though we still consider and call it a test, which is given at the end of the semester).<\/p>\n
So, this just means that students will open and complete the exam, which still contains Parts A (evaluating seven documents for credibility and relevance),\u00a0B (considering what other information would have been useful and how one might find it)\u00a0 and C (the recommendation with justification), using a Microsoft Word document, which they should save often and one last time before attaching and submitting\u00a0it to the FYS Common Exam Assignment\u00a0in Blackboard.<\/p>\n
Here is the what is slightly different –\u00a0rather than loading that Microsoft Word document (actually, there are four different ones for four different scenarios –\u00a0those given on Monday,\u00a0another scenario for Tuesday, etc.)\u00a0into your Blackboard course shell at the beginning of the semester,\u00a0students will be directed via a link in the Blackboard assignment to a website with all the information they need,\u00a0including the FYS Common Exam\u00a0Microsoft Word document template.<\/p>\n
So, it’s the same test, same format.\u00a0 The only difference is that ACCESS to the exam, exam scenarios and related documents will be available via a website (https:\/\/www.marshall.edu\/fys\/first-year-seminar\/final-exams\/)<\/a>\u00a0which is linked in the FYS Common Exam assignment in Blackboard for students.<\/p>\n If you have any questions, please contact April Fugett (fugett5@marshall.edu or 304-696-5268)<\/p>\n April Fugett (fugett5@marshall.edu | 304-696-5268<\/p>\n Barbara Tarter grading approach<\/a><\/p>\n Sias FYS Final Exam Grading Rubric 12 18<\/a><\/p>\n Rubric for FYS Final Exam <\/a><\/p>\n FYS Exam info Where is the exam?
