Unit 1--Day 11

Today we took the test. I arranged for this to be an online test--all done in the media center, each student on a computer. The test shuffles the questions and answers, so there is little chance of peeking, but the best part is that the feedback for the test is immediate. Students know right away how they did. Overall, I was impressed. The average score was about 56 out of 71. This could go up if the students had all taken advantage of the fact that there were practice quizzes online which mimicked the format of the test itself.

So, unit 1 down, unit 2 on the properties of matter to come. Sweet justice.
