This Week: Quiz  3  9/25 - 9/27  Chapter  6  & information in the lecture and module. It will consist of 20 questions and will be worth 40 pts. You will have 30 minutes to take it. Please note that quizzes are posted from Thursday at noon to Saturday at at 5:00 PM, but the Professor, as a rule, will not be available after 4:00 on Fridays. So, if you have a computer that crashes a lot or gives you problems, I suggest making sure you take the quiz by Friday 4:00 in case you need to have access re-set (call me & e-mail ).  There will be a link  under the tab called Assessments.
