Subtotals

You have some new rows in your Grades page in Webcourses2 for managing your grade subtotals.

Brain burner adjustment factor 0.01

For those of you who tried the mini-quiz K calculations, The Revenge of Mount Vesuvius, and did not get it correct, I am awarding 0.01 points. This will signify that you did attempt the mini-quiz, but miscalculated, which I can see by some of your answers.

This allows me to post up 4 points for you from taking mini-quiz K by the deadline last night.

Next to last learning module is GO.

You can now work through learning module K, concerning plate tectonics, volcanoes etc.

The mini-quiz is just a pair of calculations, so study well.

Putting out fires

I am putting out fires in my lecture section this morning, started in the internet tinder box named Webcourses2. So the module for today might not be activated until after supper time. Big small disasterness.

Mini-quiz J is loopy.

For some reason, when I activated Mini-quiz J, it was set to award 0.01 point per question. So some of you, getting all questions correct, baggged 0.29 points on it.

It is not a problem, because I can see you have gotten in there and answered at least one question correctly, so you will get your 4 points today.

But if you feel like getting 29 points on the mini-quiz, take it one more time because I went back in this morning and set it to 1 point per question.

New module

There is a new module for this week, learning module J, concerning rocks and minerals. I might try to create a new mini-podcast this week to go along with it.
