Instructions
The following worksheet is based on the material I assigned for Module #3.
This worksheet is not timed! Take your time. Double-check your answers and email me (the professor) if you are unclear about anything.
Your worksheet consists of matching, multiple-choice, and short answer questions. With multiple-choice questions, please select the option that BEST completes the statement or answers the questions. On short answer questions, you want to provide a written response to what is asked in the question/s. Most short answer questions ask for a layered response and will require more than a sentence or two in response. Please make sure your response to short answer questions is in your own words and not a word-for-word copy of the assigned material. Plagiarism will not earn you points. You can quote phrases and passages! However, if your entire response is a quote you aren't exactly doing your job as a student.
Again, the worksheet is not timed, which is why I am strict about quotes and plagiarism.
