New Site

We're making a change to the way that we release work for our classes. The main lessons (the things that we'll do in class each day) will now be found at the site "Optimal Beneficial Moreover Detrimental: Classroom." We're keeping this site, with a slightly different name, in order to release a reading a day for students to practice their reading at home. Each post will contain a link to a reading, along with a list of assignments that can be completed for that reading.

32.1. "The Bookworm Who Became a Science Fiction Writer"

What Are We Learning Today?
Today, and this week, we're talking about multiple choice questions.

What Should I Know to Make My Work Easier?

 1. Don't leave any multiple choice questions blank.

2. Blank answers: 0 points
    Random guesses: .25 point
    Able to Throw One Choice Out: .33
    Able to Throw Two Choices Out: .50 point
    Knowing the Answer: 1 point

3. Go through a multiple choice test twice -- first do the ones that you feel that you Know, and then go through and take care of the rest. Make no random guesses until you have under a minute left. Leave no answers blank.

4. Cross out answers that you are ruling out. Read all answers to all questions.

5. Run through the test two times.
