Final Exam Information
The 2-hour, cumulative final exam will take place in our usual classroom (LI 115) at the date and time given by Towson University in their Final Exam Schedule.
If you take the final exam, the grade you earn on it will replace all quiz grades of "0" and will account for 25% of your final course grade. The remaining 75% of your final course grade will be comprised of 25% quiz grades and 50% paper grades.
IMPORTANT: If you will be taking the final exam, you MUST hand in to me 2 blank T.U. exam booklets (with nothing written on or in them) during or before our last class on Friday December 8th. If you show up at the final exam without having turned in exam booklets to me, and without blank blue books in hand for my inspection, you will not be permitted to take the final. (Sometimes, entrepreneurial students have extras that they will sell to you on the spot, but please do not depend upon this. Exam books are available for purchase in the book store in the Union).
In class on October 27, I announced the general format of the final exam:
- Quote identifications
taken from authors in a list to be posted here
- Short identifications
taken from the "terms and concepts" lists posted throughout the semester on this website
- Essay questions
these will be posted here approximately one week before the final. There will likely be three questions posted; on the exam you will be given the choice of two of these questions, and will be required to answer only one
The final exam will be very similar in nature to the quizzes: no notes or books allowed; no re-entry into the exam once you have left the room; and you may use pencil or pen, as you choose. Punctuation and grammar will not count, and partial credit may be awarded for partially correct answers.
